Identifying and Tracking Trends in Instructional Design and Technology
Primary Question: What trends (methods and technologies) are currently being widely
discussed and/or implemented by professionals in the IDT field?
Focus of Today’s Presentation:
The methods we have used to answer this question

How We Identified Sources of Useful Information
- Started with familiar sources - Consulted with an expert reference librarian - Conducted Google search:
◦ Trend name + survey/trends/report + data

How We Transform the Data (cont.)• Modify figures to emphasize
key data• Visualize data originally in text
form• Summarize key findings from a
single report• Synthesize data from multiple
reports• Gather missing information
