Reigeluth has really helped me keep things straight and how it all connects. Obviously the second one is more updated. It's really informed my design projects. But I do think things have changed and that's a great connection to the famous ADDIE debate.Tex Briegernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28999673.post-23755845461759228942010-01-31T16:08:27.783-05:002010-01-31T16:08:27.783-05:00Green book or red book or no book.

There are reasons for the decisions that are made, and those decisions come from the literature, best practices and positive deviants regarding learning, communications, technology and culture. <br /><br />• Data direct decisions. Instructional designers make decisions based on data from<br />many sources, including clients, job incumbents, the literature, participation, and<br />error rates. Data focus attention, with output from one phase of the effort enlightening subsequent actions and decisions. Data is also gathered to examine individual and program efficacy and to continuously improve. Complacency is bad.<br /><br />• Causes count. Once the mission is scoped, instructional designers want to know why? Why are appraisal forms flawed? Why is line 7 filled out inconsistently? Why do they not persist? Is it that they don’t know how or that they don’t think it’s worth doing or that doing it results in a hassle? Why does the group in Belgium do it, when the group in Boston doesn’t? <br /><br />• Instruction is good, but not sufficient. Wise instructional designers ask questions<br />about causes in order to tailor solution systems. The system might involve statements of expectations, challenges and tasks, self-assessment, scenario-based elearning, performance support, a blog and an e-coach. The next effort might look totally different. It depends.<br /><br />• Outcomes are king. While there is disagreement from constructivists about how very<br />royal outcomes are, most instructional designers are keen on outcomes, favoring the loose or tight, the grand or petite.<br />.<br />• More voices add value. Cross-disciplinary teams, with content experts, programmers, artists, users, and clients, join instructional designers to create programs. <br /><br />What did I forget? What is the essence of ID, the essence we admire?Allison Rossettnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28999673.post-20989114978301378632010-01-31T12:58:28.996-05:002010-01-31T12:58:28.996-05:00I have a familiarity with this book, but have grea...I have a familiarity with this book, but have greater familiarity with Reigeluth’s “Instructional Theories in Action” (1987). The author describes this book as simpler and more concrete than “Instruction Design Theories and Models.” In “Instructional Theories in Action” Reigeluth includes descriptions of each theory by the originator(s) of the theory (except for Gagne and Briggs) and a lesson developed using the corresponding theory. <br />It is a nice approach which includes concrete examples. However, the example lessons (a variation on how to use a microscope) do not address a performance-based issue. <br />I love the “description – application” approach and continue to refer to “Instructional Theories in Action.”kelly_smith01noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28999673.post-72817762295610012192010-01-31T09:46:29.774-05:002010-01-31T09:46:29.774-05:00I love the "green book."

I just found a print out of a Lunch and Learn presentation that I did in 2003 titled "What is Instructional Design?" for a company that had hired me but no one knew what the heck it was that I did. (I'm thinking of recreating the slides to share on my blog for some giggles.)
