Systematic Design For Elearning

Today, technology has invaded almost all aspects of our life, for better or for worse. Though technology’s role in our life is debatable to some extent (which is also not the scope of this article), its happy union with education is definitely something to cheer for. The accentuation of education through proper application of technology is termed as e learning. Having come of age over the years with drastic leapfrogs in technology, e learning has today evolved into a great learning platform that is radically different from that of the conventional learning techniques, conceivably in a better way.

Just as there are myriad approaches to conventional methodical teaching, e learning, too has varied approaches to it. Instead of dwelling upon the various approaches to e learning, we will here shed light on one of the most popular one. Widely known as Instructional Systems Design (ISD), it is also known by other names such as Instructional Systems Design & Development (ISDD), the Systems Approach to Training (SAT), or just Instructional Design (ID). Starting with the assessment of a student’s expectations from the courseware, it leads the student through a step by step guide involving the design and development of the training material, and finally allowing the instructor to gauge the efficacy of the program through student assessment.

For this discussion, we are making the argument that to design something is to plan its inception, production and use, and that the application of consistent principles can improve the utility of that thing. In the case of on-line educational content, this means a plan of the purpose, presentation and evaluation of that content using accepted instructional design principles. Yet, we are working in a format that requires the consideration of other applications of design ideas from other fields. The use of media types such as typography, images, and audio are directly constrained by the on-line distribution method in both presentation and technical considerations.
