A Look at Other Instructional Design Blogs

   Lets take a look at some great blogs on Instructional Design. I came across a site that listed 50 best Instructional Design blogs http://www.industrial-design-schools.org/instructional-design-blogs. I won't be looking at all 50 but I will be looking at the three I thought was most interesting.

   The first one is Big Dog, Little Dog by Donald Clark, he gives you his thoughts on Instructional Design and Performance. This blog takes a look at the different theories and learning styles. It also looks at the different parts of Instructional Design for example evaluation, the design process and Social Media. This blog is good for getting a better understanding of the theories and keeping up to date on their use in the design process.

   The second blog I will be looking at is The Rapid E-Learning. It discusses many different areas of elearning such has Instructional Design, Managing your E-learning Project and the thing that got my attention PowerPoint in elearning. One should find this blog useful for the in dept information on elearning, designing. I found it particularly interesting because I use narrated PowerPoint in designing elearning therefore I should get some great ideas and new inspiration from this.

   The third blog I will be looking at is Cathy Moore she is trying to save us from boring elearning. She talks about the mistakes we make in elearning design, Scenarios and Action Mapping. Reading this blog should give you some good ideas on designing your elearning tools.
