Rules

1. I know it. You don’t.

Shut up and listen.

2. This will be on the test.

3. We’ve always done it

this way.

Just because you taught it, doesn’t mean they caught it

It’s even worse online

Boring content

Puts learners to sleep.

Where’s

the

learning?

• Collection of dry, boring courses

• Off-site & decentralized faculty

• Limited resources

• Entrenched paradigm

• New LMS rolling out

As we all know So how do we go

from this

to this?

To create courses so good that students talk about them outside of class:

– bringing new ideas to the workplace

– excited about what they are learning

– eager to discover more

Start with the Basics of ID

Define your problem

• Examine “what is”

• Define what you want

• Identify the gap

Know your people

GAP

Lessons Learned

• People resist change

• Ownership is fuzzy

• Provide things to drive them to the CoP

• Never, never, never give up

In the inestimable wisdom of the musical

philosopher, Miles Davis,

So what?

Takeaways

• Evaluate stakeholders according to their needs.

• Provide options for transfer of learning

• Help them DO not just know

To say that something is designed means it has intentions that go beyond its function. Otherwise it’s just planning.
