Ask instructional designers to describe their design process and you will probably get a listing of five steps: analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. Those who have been trained or have done some reading will likely identify these components collectively as the ADDIE process, a process that has been at the core of the instructional design discipline for years.
While the process outlined makes perfect sense at a high level, it isn't in itself particularly helpful. It's true that one has to engage in design before one can develop the final product when creating a piece of learning from scratch, but the specific way to approach the design is of critical importance.
In this webinar, Ethan will provide five specific strategies to improve your e-learning instructional design.
