Ever since I took Dr. Fulford's first course in the ETEC program, I cannot forget how much emphasis she placed on the importance of LEARNERS. The audience is the focus. The PEOPLE are key to Instructional Design.
I am trying my best not to get caught up in the foray of high tech toys that are amassing. I try to keep up without getting caught up. Relevant tools is much more important than cool updated tools. You don't give a diamond to a man who is starving on a deserted island. You don't take your date out on a late night to Las Vegas if they are sick with the flu. Just because something is "cool" doesn't mean people will want it.
See this video about the importance about knowing the people. Enjoy!!!
