A recent tweet by Jason Elsom made me sit up and take notice: 'We need to stop designing schools for teaching and start designing schools for learning.' Also, what does Jason mean by 'designing'? So, do we design our schools with learning in mind, or do we configure them so they best optimise teaching? Unported License.

In this post, I explore Donald Norman''s ideas around the design of every day objects. This should not so much be considered as a theory, but is a useful perspective on design and human perception. He argued that what we see is directly perceived, and that we extract meaning from the shape and design of the object we are looking at.

If you know me, you’ll know my topic was right up my alley: “Instructional Design: You Do What for a Living?” I 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.
