TRENDS AND ISSUES IN INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN AND TECHNOLOGY
== My Links ==
Robert A. Reiser ,  John V. Dempsey
 
Section 1 Defining the Field (foundational issues)
 
Chapter 1 What field did you say you were in?  Defining and naming our field
 
 early definitions: IDT viewed as media
 
- 1920s visual instruction
- 1920s-1940s audiovisual instruction
- 1950s television
During the first 50 years of 20th century, most focus on design, production and use of instructional media.
 
 1960s and 1970s: IT viewed as a process
 
- 1963: the definition (Ely, 1963) emphasizes on learning    “the design and use of messages which control the learning process” ; the steps (planning, production, selection, utilization, and management )
 
- 1970: Commission on Instructional Technology : “a systematic way of designing, carrying out, and evaluating the whole process of learning and teaching in terms of specific objectives, based on research on human learning and communication, and employing a combination of human and nonhuman resources to bring about more effective instructions. (p 21)”
 
 
- 1977: AECT “Educational technology is a complex, integrated process involving people, procedures, ideas, devices, and organization, for analyzing problems and devising, implementing, evaluation, and managing solutions to those problems, involved in all aspects of human learning ” (p 1)
 
 The 1994 definition: beyond viewing IT as a process
 
- influenced by cognitive and constructivist learning theories (the previous by behavioural learning theory)
 
- AECT Instructional Technology: The Definition and Domains of the Field (Seels & Richey, 1994) “Instructional Technology is the theory and practice of design, development, utilization, management, and evaluation of processes and resources for learning” (p.1)
 
 Two recent definitions
 
- Latest AECT definition: “Educational technology is the study and ethical practice of facilitating learning and improving performance by creating, using, and managing appropriate technological processes and resources.”(n. p.)
 
- Definition used in the text: “The field of instructional design and technology encompass the analysis of learning and performance problems, and the design, development, implementation, evaluation, and management of instructional and noninstructional processes and resources intended to improve learning and performance in a variety of settings, particularly educational institutions and the workplace. Professionals in the field of instructional design and technology often use systematic instructional design procedures and employ instructional media to accomplish their goals. Moreover, in recent years, they have paid increasing attention to noninstructional solutions to some performance problems. Research and theory related to each of the aforementioned areas is also an important part of the field”
 
 
Chapter 2 What is instructional design?
 
 the core elements/phases of ID  ADDIE
 
- Analysis: conduct a needs assessment, identify a performance problem in a business setting, or some other environment, and state a goal
 
- Design: write objectives in measurable terms, classify learning as to type, specify learning activities and specify media
 
- Development: prepare student and instructor materials as specified during design
 
- Implementation: deliver the instruction in the setting for which it was designed
 
- Evaluation: formative evaluation (collecting data to identify needed revisions to the instruction) , summative evaluation (collecting data to assess the overall effectiveness and worth of the instruction) and revision (making needed changes based on he formative evaluation data)
 
 Important points:
 
- ADDIE activities are not completed in a linear step-by-step manner
- The term instructional development has different meanings in different context
 
 Characteristics of ID:
 
- Learner-centered: learners and their performance are the focal points of all teaching and learning activities.
 
- Goal oriented: have the goal of the project been attained?
 
- ID focuses on meaningful performance: a high congruence between the learning environment and the setting in which the actual behaviours are performed
 
- ID assumes outcomes can be measured in a reliable and valid way: the consistency of the assessment across time and individuals
 
- ID is empirical, iterative and self-correcting: data collection
 
- ID typically is a team effort
 
Chapter 3  A history of instructional design and technology
 
 history of instructional media
- definition of IM: the physical means via which instruction is presented to learners
- school museums
- the visual instruction movement and instructional films
- the audiovisual instruction movement and instructional radio
- World War 2
- Post-World War 2 developments and media research
- Theories of communication
- Instructional television
- Shifting terminology
- Computers : from the 1950s to 1955
- Recent development
- Conclusion
 history of instructional design
- the origin of ID: World War 2
- more early developments: the programmed instruction movement
- the popularization of behavioural objectives
- the Criterion-Reference Testing movement
- Robert M. Gagné: domains of learning, events of instruction, and hierarchical analysis
- Sputnik: the indirect launching of formative evaluation
 early ID models
- the 1970s: Burgeoning of interest in the System Approach
- the 1980s: growth and redirection
- into the 21st century: changing views and practices
- conclusion
