Instructional designers + teaching faculty = powerful partnership

Instructional designers + teaching faculty = powerful partnership | Higher Education Teaching and Learning | Scoop.it
The classroom experience as we know it has changed. With the onset of social distancing and sudden transitions to remote instruction, the faculty workload may be quite overwhelming for some teaching faculty. These days it is not uncommon to hear the comforting proclamation, “We’re in this together”.

Why we prefer Learning Design Over Instructional Design

Why we prefer Learning Design Over Instructional Design | Higher Education Teaching and Learning | Scoop.it

Education isn’t just about teaching (the “what”) and delivery (the “how”), it’s actually about learning (“what” + “how”). Otherwise, we’re missing the point. Moving beyond just, “I can teach like this,” to, “What is the best way to help my students learn this material?” means thinking about your students — who they are, what they know, how they think, and ultimately how to reach them effectively so they will learn better.

Christopher Pappas: 9 Tips To Apply Adult Learning Theory to eLearning - eLearning Industry

Christopher Pappas: 9 Tips To Apply Adult Learning Theory to eLearning - eLearning Industry | Higher Education Teaching and Learning | Scoop.it
According to the renowned American educator, Malcolm Knowles there are 5 assumptions concerning the characteristics of adult learners, and 4 principles concerning adult learning (andragogy). Despite the fact that Knowles' adult learning theory assumptions and principles were introduced in the 1980's, each can be utilized today to help eLearning professionals create more meaningful learning experiences for adult learners.

Phil Hobrla's curator insight, March 16, 2015 8:09 PM

In order for adult learners to be actively involved in their own learning, they must feel (and know) that they have a voice in regards to the content and delivery of their coursework. The degree to which learners determine how a course will play out is, of course, the prerogative of the instructor, but I think instructors who actively gauge the preparedness and receptivity of their adult learners are liable to get ones who are more engaged and grateful.

Scooped from Amos's Scoop.it page- Adult learning theory is very important to keep in mind when designing learning strategies for adult education. This is a very helpful resource to easily reference when designing instruction, in particular I would highlight the PURPOSE behind each module and activity and remembering that motivation is key with adult learners.
