| Page 1 of 6 | Previous | Next | JONATHAN'S ID JUNE 5, 2009  The Various Roles of Instructional Design (work in progress) Job descriptions in ID (or, ISD) these days are all over the map, with very little consistency. Instructional Designer Capable of performing or at least managing entire ADDIE process. Primarily responsible for translating raw content into instructional content. Strong graphic design skills/talents are helpful here, or you may need a Graphic Designer. | DAWN OF LEARNING APRIL 13, 2012 When the Learner is the Teacher, Do We Need Instructional Designers? It’s a new world out there for the Instructional Designer. When designing for mLearning, we need to put ourselves in the shoes of the user who is walking around with a very powerful tablet and/or smart phone. In light of this, a waterfall ADDIE process that cranks out a monolithic elearning courses doesn’t work anymore. The role of an instructional designer needs to evolve to learning experience designer; someone that facilitates learning and collaboration rather than dictating it. Skeptics need look no further than Flash! | | | | | |
| INTEGRATED LEARNINGS JANUARY 18, 2011 Why Instructional Designers Should Be Familiar with Flash by Donna Bryant Why should we instructional designers become familiar with development programs such as Flash? After all, most development is not done by writers or designers--it is usually done by technical developers. Helps you to know what is possible to do with the program so that you are inspired as you write and design content. If you're not able to actually take a Flash class, you can still learn enough from online resources to educate yourself. Collected Flash Tutorials - Flash tutorials, covering various topics. | DAWN OF LEARNING APRIL 27, 2012 Instructional Design Orthodoxy I will be dating myself here, but so much of the orthodoxy in the instructional design process was forged back in the late 80’s and early 90’s when the only Computer-Based Training (CBT) tools were Toolbook for the PC, and Hypercard for the Mac. The idea that you might allow scrolling was to many an Instruction Designer taboo. This constraint created some “interesting” design choices and some very boring page-turner content and some clever ways of cramming a lot of content into the single non-scrolling frame. Instructional Design | LEARNING VISIONS JANUARY 7, 2008  Cammy Beans Learning Visions: The Value of Instructional Designers Cammy Beans Learning Visions Musings on eLearning, instructional design and other training stuff. Monday, January 07, 2008 The Value of Instructional Designers Ive been having on ongoing conversation with other instructional designers as to whether or not we need to have the technical skill sets to actually build the courses we design. See Lou? | LEARNING VISIONS NOVEMBER 24, 2009  Accidental Instructional Designers #dl09 If you know me, you’ll know my topic was right up my alley: “Instructional Design: You Do What for a Living?” asked people to introduce themselves and tell their stories – how they each got into instructional design. We all agreed that no one set out in their early days with the grand vision of becoming an instructional designer. Isn’t it out there already?” | | | | | | | |

THE LEARNING GENERALIST | MONDAY, JUNE 22, 2009  The Agile Elearning Design Manual - Think Small (Iterations, Action Maps, Storyboards, and Mini-Modules)
As you will notice in the above representation of the model, the issues are: Too much time gets spent in upfront design and planning when all of this is quite likely to change. Can we reduce flab in our analysis and design phase? We'll discuss the process and outputs of this exercise in a bit We are working in shorter cycles of Design, Develop and Deployment -- what I call the D-cube iterations! This replaces the traditional ADDIE marathon. What kind of design are you doing in each iteration? Bespoke Flash? The design isn't set in stone with a document. MORE >> -

DEVELOPER ON DUTY | MONDAY, AUGUST 13, 2012  DECLARE - Instructional Design for Everyone
I had been teaching 2D Animation ( Flash) for about seven years, and the final semester projects always required each student building a small multimedia lesson to teach something. Their final projects were basic online courses built all in Flash. As the semesters went by, the projects got better technically, but were missing instructional elements. needed a way to quickly teach instructional design to multimedia students. They had the ability to create the elements, but didn't understand instructional design and learner needs. Um.sound familiar? MORE >> -
TONY KARRER | WEDNESDAY, JUNE 23, 2010 Learning Flash
My posts around the Beginning of Long Slow Death of Flash and my post from a CTO perspective that I Cannot Bet on Flash for new development stirred up quite a bit of response. And that Flash provides things that you can’t do in HTML/JavaScript. However, there are some pretty amazing things you can do without Flash. The bottom line is that none of the feedback I’ve received has convinced me that choosing Flash as a delivery option for a new product or project would be a good idea today, especially if I want it to play on mobile and live for 5 years.
