Description
A Practical Book for Busy PeopleMany people, these days, find themselves being asked to develop training, development and education materials in addition to their job roles. Others find themselves in the business of teaching, developing and educating.This transition to learning and development is often based on deep subject matter expertise, however people new to the domain find that developing a course involves a lot more than putting some slides together - this is the art of instructional design. Whilst there are many good text books giving deep analysis into the discipline, some people just need to 'cut to the chase' and get the job done, with a helpful and clear framework to assist them if you are one of those people, this book has been written for youBased on 10 key principles and 18 underpinning processes this framework is aimed at the person who can create presentations, exercises and other learning content and just needs a simple but comprehensive framework, with brief supporting notes, to assist them to work in a systematic and systemic manner, accelerating their instructional design and adding some good practices into the end-to-end process.This framework has a different intended purpose to a methodology (which defines prescriptively what will be done and how), as it is designed to be used to assist in assembling a methodology that is fit for your purpose, by providing 18 pre-defined processes for you to evaluate and select/combine in the context of a particular design activity - for example, formal summative assessment may not be required for some courses and speaker notes may not be needed if the designer is also delivering, so these processes may be set aside.To assist the reader, 18 templates and examples will provide insights and ideas to back up the processes in this highly usable manual, which has been kept concise, free of bloat and is under 75 pages long - people who purchase the book will receive electronic copies of these aids.Written by an experienced instructional designer, who has worked as a Human Resource Development consultant for 18 years and successfully designed and delivered over 100 courses in 35 countries, this practical instructional design framework is pragmatic, but rigorous and will take you through the processes needed to produce a constructively aligned course.
