Instructional Design — a short course

When

January 9, 2002, 6:00-8:30 PM

Abstract

Instructional Design (ID) is certainly not new to the training and development industry. However, with the rapid growth of the e-learning industry, it has taken on a variety of new meanings. Join us for a penetrating look at this exciting field of practice in e-learning, and leave with a number of practical tips for improving the effectiveness of your e-learning initiatives.

Our speakers will be Richard Rykhus and Katie Shean, co-founders of Thinkeractive, the expert designer of custom learning technology strategies and interactive learning environments. Their presentation will differ from the usual "speaking" format as they lead an interactive course on Instructional Design. Questions they will consider include: How does the role of instructional design fit into an organization's learning initiative and its overall strategy? What are some key elements of learning that every instructional designer should know? Why is instructional design important? Has it changed because of e-learning? How should it change? What are some basic truths that transcend time and technology?
