Don’t Forget, Instructional Design Is About Problem Solving
The rise in demand for instructional design has given way to a series of misconceptions about the discipline; two educators offer an informative view of their profession and its origins.
I'm originally from the Caribbean island of Trinidad and Tobago and graduated with a BSc in Computer Science, a MSc in Software Development and Management and a PhD in Information Science and Learning Technologies from the University of Missouri, Columbia campus. I teach instructional design, project management and general management courses. My interest lies mainly with online learning focusing on the pedagogical usability of online learning, cultural aspects associated with the design of such and workplace eLearning artefacts.
