Short Description

This panel addresses learner readiness to study instructional design theory and practice. Through an examination of learner needs and desired performance outcomes, we have identified potential prerequisites for beginning a program in instructional technology. We will share the results of our collaboration, invite attendees to share their teaching experiences, and work to refine and identify additional prerequisite skills in support of learners’ development of their design practice.
