What instructional design principles do you use when you're designing learning? Gagne's 9 events? Practice and feedback? Instructional alignment? Some principles are widely known and others are more niche, but it's really empowering when you can justify your design decisions with theory. That's why I took a look at an instructional design course my team and I are building, and I recorded a video highlighting some of the principles and techniques we're applying. So if you'd like to hang out with me behind-the-scenes and check out the course (while hopefully learning a thing or two that you can take with you to your own projects), then you can view the video with the link in the comments! #LinkedInWithDevlin #InstructionalDesign #Learning #LearningAndDevelopment #eLearning

👩‍🏫 Are you a hashtag #transitioningteacher looking to get started in the field of #instructionaldesign? 💯 Learning about the phases of ADDIE and how you can put this model to use as you design eLearning courses is a fundamental first step! You've probably heard people discussing the learning development model called ADDIE and wondered what it is or how to use it effectively. This is a brief introduction to each phase of the ADDIE model so you can get an idea of what goes into each step of the design process. I hope it's helpful!

The world of instructional design tools just keeps on growing, doesn't it? Whether you're preparing for that high-paying role or just wanting to keep your ID team ahead of the curve, it's all about investing in the right tools. So how do you figure out which ones are worth it? This week, Kristin Dominguez is here to give us the break down on 20+ tools and software to help you decide how best to invest your time and money. She walks us through a rating system to help you evaluate the top ID tools by usability, cost, and demand on the job market. And not only does she cover standard authoring tools and graphic editing software, but she also evaluates popular programs used for storyboarding, audio narration, and so much more. This way, you don't have to waste hours learning the wrong software, and instead you can keep your focus on applications that work best for you. Watch the video with the link in the comments and let us know what you think! What did we miss? Which tools are you prioritizing in the ID space? #LinkedInWithDevlin #InstructionalDesign #Learning #LearningAndDevelopment #eLearning

Instructional Design goes beyond gathering and creating teaching materials. It’s a method of thinking. You know the content; the instructional designer knows learning. Working with an instructional designer is an ideal collaboration for anyone creating a course. Do you need to teach a skill or concept, but don’t know how to get started? Do you want to make an in-person course available online? Are you having trouble keeping your learners engaged or want to widen your reach? Any of these examples would benefit greatly from collaborating with an instructional designer. Our team will ask questions and conduct analyses to determine the needs of your learners, the purpose of your course, and your desired outcomes. With that information, our team designs the optimal learner experience using the principles of design, effective and engaging methods of content delivery, and our knowledge of the most successful approaches to adult learning. Finally, once your course is live, we evaluate how well your course is performing and if necessary, identify a path forward. #InstructionalDesign #CME #continuingmedicaleducation #LifeLongLearning #RevitalizedLearning

Happy Monday, instructional designers and eLearning devs! Do you want to build your skills with AI and Storyline 360 this week? If so, I'm going live with a BEGINNER'S Storyline workshop on Thursday where we'll dive into the new AI features (as well as basic features like triggers, states, etc). Getting good with this stuff should help you develop faster and serve as a Storyline + AI resource for your team. To kick off the session, you'll vote on the course topic and the interaction that we'll build, and then we'll build a prototype of it step-by-step (leveraging AI the whole time). You'll be able to follow along if you have Storyline, and I'll give you all the assets you need. Finally, we'll compare Storyline's AI functionality to ChatGPT, Claude, and others. This will be a great session for anyone new to Storyline or new to leveraging AI within the tool. We go live on Thursday at 10 AM PT, and you can register with the link in the comments. See you there :) #LinkedInWithDevlin #InstructionalDesign #eLearning #Learning #ArtificialIntelligence

Lectora vs. Articulate Storyline a debate that continues to stimulate discussions among eLearning professionals. Each excels in different areas, making the choice dependent on individual project needs. Lectora provides a well-rounded, reliable platform that's easy for beginners to grasp. It's favored for its streamlined experience, intuitive navigation, and clean interface. If you're after more accessibility options and ease of use, Lectora should be your go-to. Switching gears to Articulate Storyline, it takes the cake regarding interactive elements and multimedia. It's an absolute power tool for creating dynamic, engaging content. Storyline is for those who crave flexibility and want to push the boundaries of course design. Ultimately, it's about recognizing your unique requirements and making an informed decision. So, next time you're faced with the Lectora versus Storyline dilemma, remember – there's no universally right answer, but there's certainly one that's right for you. I want to know your thoughts! Which do you prefer and why? #CareerTransition #InstructionalDesign #Mindset #Growth #IDOLcourses
