We are Learning Designers

Sticky Learning

Let me explain why I don't call myself an Instructional Designer - I do a lot more than design instruction! To me the word instructional brings forth notions of teacher led instruction in formal education settings. Chalk and Talk, Tell and Do, information being 'pushed' from the facilitator to the student. OK, I know that this is not what the majority of today's Instructional Designers actually do (they could even be offended by my description).
