However, even the most well-intentioned eLearning programs can fall short if not designed with knowledge retention in mind. Poor design choices can hinder learning, causing participants to disengage or forget what they’ve learned. Flow: Design the course so that moving from one section to another feels intuitive and seamless.

To have measurable impact requires designing solutions to achieve change. Similarly, there are guidelines for designing performance support solutions. Still, cognitive science and design practices give us guidance there, as needed. Together, measurement and design are the tools we need to apply.

When job aids won’t work or have been designed but need training to incorporate them, we need learning design. Then, the immediate next task is to design the final practice. This suggests that a learning design may or may not succeed. Too frequently, our learning perspective has focused on knowledge, not the application.

Which underpins why it makes sense to talk about Learning Experience Design (LXD) and not just instructional design. We need to accommodate complexity in learning design. (* Which I talk about in Chapter 2 of my learning science book , and in my workshops on the same topic through the Allen Academy.). However, we need more.

Building on that foundation, let’s examine the subsequent essential phase: when the solution is either performance support alone or with training, that job aid design should be done first. This is because any training design that incorporates the job aid should be developed after the job aid is tested and working as appropriate.

Instructional Design is NOT dead! Back in 2017, I wrote a post about the importance of instructional design and its power to create impactful learning experiences. Some might think that with all this rapid change, instructional design itself might be fading into the background. So, I thought it was high time for an update!

Learning Experience Design (LXD), I argue, is the elegant integration of learning science with engagement. Specifically, how do we engage people already actively designing? You could talk about the cognitive underpinnings , the implications for the elements of learning, or via the changes in the design process.

When I talk to instructional designers, content writers or anyone in the creative field in general, the one question that seems to be on their mind is whether AI is going to take away their jobs. As a learning designer, you can use ChatGPT to assist you in several ways. This is a huge advantage. The answer is no. Do you agree?

I’ve been an Instructional Designer for many years now. After all, design lives in the space where there is no formulaic answer.

Since all learning is designed in some way to change learner behavior, it makes sense to think about the expected change from the start of the design process. Sifting through folders of content?
