What is Instructional Design Theory
According to Reighluth (1999: 6-7), Instructional Design-Theory is:
- design-oriented (focussing on means to attain given goals for learning or development) and
- identifies methods of instruction (ways to support and facilitate learning) and the situation in which these methods should and should not be used.
- Methos of instruction can be broken down into more detailed component methods
- Methods are probabilistic, rather than deterministic...
Instructional Design is related to Learning Theories and Pedagogical Theories.
