The Power of the Profession: The Role of the ID in Creating High-Quality Courses

Description

Three instructional designers from three institutions will be discussing the importance and profession of instructional design. We will focus on how great courses come together when faculty are supported and encouraged to achieve their highest potential in an online offering. We will discuss and provide examples of 3 aspects of the instructional design field: Creating professional development infused with instructional design best practices, utilizing creative technologies to promote alignment and the achievement of learning outcomes, and overcoming barriers and obstacles to communicate the value of instructional design/working with IDs

Come to be inspired, grab ideas, and learn solid strategies on how to infuse QM throughout the many interactions IDs l have with faculty. By the end of our session, attendees will recharge their instructional design batteries and discover new ways to provide their invaluable expertise and support to online faculty.
