Double-loop learning (Argyris) is a highly underutilized approach in instructional design and delivery within higher education, mainly because it's often seen as unfeasible given the typical structure and constraints of the current system. A significant issue in higher education is the gap between what students are exposed to and what they actually retain. Students typically leave with only 10-20% of the skills, knowledge, and attitudes they were taught. That's a poor return on investment. One reason for this is that administrators often equate "rigor" with the volume of content students must read, rather than focusing on the complexity of tasks students are asked to perform. This leads to a design process where content takes priority over objectives. As a result, students are overwhelmed with excessive material (due to a misguided standard of rigor) and don't have the time to engage with the content deeply—through reasoning, practice, analysis, and refinement. In short, courses are overloaded with content and lack adequate time for processing. I have 🔢 recomendations that will most likely be ignored and/or argued with: 1️⃣ Write clear, direct objectives so students understand the skills they need to develop; 2️⃣ Remove unnecessary content and focus only on what directly aligns with the objectives; 3️⃣ If possible, split the course into two separate ones; and 4️⃣ Incorporate double-loop learning, along with effective learning strategies, to create actionable and practical learning experiences. This approach can lead to learners becoming twice as competent with half the content, offering a scalable and sustainable solution. NOTE: Triple loop learning is also interesting but works better for workplace training than it does for higher ed given that the third loop, "context", accounts for the mission and vision of an organization, or group, and whether or not what was learned propells said group toward their greater goals and desired impacts. It's important to note, "context" in the triple loop doesn't refer to context-of-use (as in enviroment and conditions) but the context of a 'value system'. As such, higher ed ideals are rooted in the concept of praxis, and thus the third loop might be redundant since that context is baked into the underlying assumptions found in the second loop. #learning #highereducation #instructionaldesign #instructionaltheory

We all agree that Strategic Planning is important in higher education. The question is, how can one do modern Strategic Planning without data-driven 5-7 year out enrollment projections? We don't think Modern Strategic Planning can be done as effectively without 3E ForwardIQ Forecast. What do you think?
