ISD, eLearning and Workplace Realities

1. Lessons Learned in the Learning Industry ISD, eLearning and Workplace Realities Approaches for Innovating Learning = TRY IT!

2. Some Starting Points for Innovation Instructional Systems Design (ISD) Analysis/Design Methodology eLearning Delivery Format Workplace Learning Learning Environment

3. Some Starting Points for Innovation Instructional Systems Design Analysis/Design Methodology

4. Instructional Systems Design Emphasis: What must the student DO. Not: What must the student KNOW. Analysis Design Development Implementation Evaluation

5. Analysis Phase • What are the desired results? • What behaviours are required • What knowledge is required • What instructional strategies and support tools/systems can best provide for the learning and performance objectives?

8. Gagne’s 9 Events of Instruction • Gain attention • Inform learners of objectives • Stimulate recall of prior learning • Present the content • Provide "learning guidance" • Elicit performance (practice) • Provide feedback • Assess performance • Enhance retention and transfer

9. Track Buckling & Pull Aparts

11. Analysis I. Desired Results 75% Reduction in track buckling-related expenses and incidences over the three-year period following implementation. II. Required Behaviours • Lay track • Inspect track • Maintain track • Application of track notices • Related train operations; breaking

12. Analysis (cont.) III. Required Knowledge (learning objectives)? • Lay track at neutral temperature • Inspect track for lateral movement and chording-in of curves IV. Instructional Strategies / Support Tools • Self-Study with Interactive Multimedia

15. Some Starting Points for Innovation Workplace Learning Learning Environment

16. Solve the Problem • New problems surface • YOU must address them • Quickly • Inexpensively How do you prepare for this?

17. Workplace Learning • Envision the workplace learning environment. • What kind of learning must take place while on the job? • How can you best prepare that kind of learner?

18. Approaches for Fostering Work-Place Learning • Simulation (realistic practice) • Scenario-based / Interactive Case Study • Problem-based learning • Project-based learning

19. Some Starting Points for Innovation eLearning Delivery Format

24. Conclusion What you believe (e.g., about teaching and learning) becomes self-fulfilling. Therefore, challenge beliefs by experimenting with differing models. Foster a spirit of experimentation – of play – in your learning environment.
