Episode 46 - Is Instructional Design Useless?

Show Notes

Is Instructional Design Useless? Are the conventions of what so many have been taught irrelevant or just part of some learning and development myth? These are interesting questions posed by Nick Shakelton-Jones in his article on aconventional.com and they got our attention. This week the NERDS discuss the validity, ramifications and solid thinking behind asking these questions in hopes that they challenge us to get better. This episode has some great ideas within, and an extra helping of Dan Coonrod for you fans out there. Enjoy!
