  • Who's your ID?
    Let's take the topic of, say, Instructional designers - IDs. Jay Cross is hosting a group of his Learning Irregulars over in Berkeley today; as "unlearning" old design metaphors and making room for new ones is Jay's passion, I have no doubt that unlearning ID as we've known it is explicit or implied in many of those conversational threads. Did you know that there is no job category for Instructional Designers in the US Labor statistics? This line is now the first item appearing on the Sage Road website, so an introduction seems in order. Welcome to the eLearning

  • Significant Work Needed to Help Instructional Designers
    There's little practical advice that can assist Instructional Designers in what the evolved forms really are. Oh and before I go any farther, I should point out that, as is always the case, there is general consensus that as Jay Cross put it : This is the wrong question. Dennis Coxe : The role of the instructional designer will be to use the ADDIE model to determine what baseline structure can be built into the formal piece of the learning and what parts The November LCB Big Question was "Are ISD / ADDIE / HPT relevant in a world of rapid elearning, faster time-to-performance, and informal learning?"

  • From ADDIE to Agile
    Jay Cross, always in tune with the leading edge in this field, tackles the topic of “ Agile instructional design “. The idea of agile processes has been around for over 10 years in software development and is just now starting to flow toward project management and instructional design in the learning and development field. Jay correctly identifies the ADDIE (analyze, design, develop, implement and evaluate) I have always thought that ADDIE was a sequential process for instructional design, but told you little about why you should select one training

  • Jay Cross on No More ‘Learners’
    Jay Cross makes a subtle but powerful point here. But Jay takes it a step further. think Jay is — gently and thoughtfully — getting at that slightly snobby, snooty mindset of you-have-gaps-and-I-need-design-instruction-for-you. He says it’s time to drop the preacher-and-congregation paradigm of learning. This is a big idea, although probably familiar to some (i.e.,

  • Course and Courseware Fading - The Future of eLearning
    Two very good recent posts by Jay Cross and Brent Schlenker discuss the Death of Courses. And as Brent asks: "How are the job, and skills, of the instructional designer changing (what you need to know in order to be a value add)?" If you read my blog you know that I've discussed similar themes (see Shift in eLearning from Pure Courseware towards Reference Hybrids and Start with Courseware or With the Other Stuff? ) and I have the same basic feeling that there is definitely a shift going on.

  • Learning for the 21st Century
    Jay Cross exposes the inadequacies of traditional learning and discusses a new paradigm for learning in the 21st Century. the days of textile factories in Manchester, railroads criss-crossing continents, and assembly lines mass- producing automobiles, most work was physical. Instructional designers no longer have time to develop formal courses. Unprecedented changes in the role of the worker, the nature of business, the pace of innovation, the importance of intangibles, the explosion of information, and the shift from a manufacturing to a service economy have rendered traditional corporate learning obsolete.

    by Harold Jarche and Jay Cross military formalized instruction to train millions of soldiers for World War II. Xerox Learning, DDI, Forum Corporation, and hundreds of other “instructional systems companies” sprung up. Thousands upon thousands of trainers attended conferences to learn about new approaches like programmed instruction, behavior modeling, roleplay, certification, Prior to the 20th Century, training per se did not exist outside the special needs of the church and the military.

  • The ‘Least Assistance’ Principle
    want to bring up John Carroll’s minimalist instruction, and highly recommend it to you. When Jay Cross talks about blowing up the training department , he’s talking about not focusing on courses, and instead taking a broader, performance perspective.  While I agree vehemently with most of a post by Lars Hyland, he said one thing I slightly disagree with, and I want to elaborate on it.  He was disagreeing with  “buying rapid development tools to bash out ill formed ‘e-learning’ to an audience that will not only be unimpressed but also none
