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

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.
