INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGNER TRAITS
BE A TRAVELER
Overcoming Constraints
Enjoys Undertaking New Adventures
Loves And Embraces Learning
Moves Ahead Tackling All Problems
Communication in New Places A Revelation
No Attachments to One Mode of Traveling
BECOME A LEARNER
Don’t Think Like A Learner. Instead become One to understand them.
Do Something You Had Never Done Before Designing A Learning solution
Empathy Is Great But Will Only Let You Make Choices Of Yes Yes..No No
SIMPLICITY
Design should evoke How stupid of me not to have thought of that? Was Huxley’s reaction to Darwin's Origin of Species.
It is Achieved When You Know The Topic Completely In And Out
Simplicity is Nothing But Creativity Dancing Blurring The Efforts
Simplicity Is Leaving All That Is Not Essential
A Layman Should Understand Just Looking At It
BE A CHILD
Curiousity
Passionate
Involvement
Painting The Imagination
No Attachment of Doing It One way
Using One Item in Many Different Ways
LEARNING TAKES DIFFERENT FORMS
The Way Of Learning is not universal
Learners are like us, but need not learn the way we learn
It’s like watching the same movie or reading the same book but the take away is different.
Customize Learning
INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN IS A JOURNEY
It’s a journey filled with discovery mystique
Journey with the technology and don’t lag behind it
Don’t get hooked to one way or one thing
Keep exploring in keeping to the spirits of William James ‘Experiment! Explore! Change! Grow!
I would add one of my own. Experiment! Explore! Discover! Change! Grow!.
