When selecting a learning design (LD) model, there must be consideration of context and delivery format. We also know that learning design is socially and culturally situated (Campbell & Schwier, 2014 and Ertmer & Newby, 2013). Without these features, learners would be unwilling to participate in the learning process. The technological developments and importance of learner motivation are an important reason for moving away from behaviorism. The goal should not be to change behavior but rather learning and applying higher level skills.<\/p>\n
It seems from the readings that many design decisions are based on the educator\u2019s persistent antagonists, time and budget. Following this, pedagogical perspectives influence the decisions of design. Most importantly, \u201cleveraging organizational and individual strengths\u201d (Rothwell, Benscoter, King & King, 2015) seems the most all-encompassing trait of learning design.<\/p>\n
The role of innovation is crucial as learning is dependent on context. As Dousay (2017) notes \u201cEvery instructional design project is unique every time\u201d (p. 1) Therefore a designer must be willing to adapt to a changing context. ADDIE, a frequent model used by various fields of instructional design, has been criticized for lacking guidance and broad scope (Bates, 2015). In response to these challenges flexible, or agile, designs such as , Anderson\u2019s VUCA environment (volatile, uncertain, complex, ambiguous) (Bates, 2015).<\/p>\n
This model is too complex for the day-to-day design of K to 12 schools. An alternate that Dousay outlines is Carr-Chellman\u2019s Instructional Design for Teachers (ID4T). The strengths, according to Akbulut (2011) are that this model guides instructors towards having students achieve the learning goal, but also guides instructors in using the resources already available. In short, there are strengths and weaknesses to each design model so it seems a clear goal is to have a deep repertoire of LD models to choose from.<\/p>\n
