IDT Topics

Many people are unaware of what IDT is and how it can be used in the traditioanl classroom , as well as, the untraditonal classroom such as online coursework. I have bookmarked three blogger sites that relate to instructional design and technology.

The first blogger site that I visted was Jeremy Hiebert's, http://headspacej.blogspot.com, blog. I found his site interesting because it referred to the No Child Left Behind Act, which has always interested me. The blog talked about how technology in the classroom is generally being used for students with special needs and why not for all kids? Due to the fact that we all have our own learning styles, we should all have the same access to technology learning tools.




The second blogger page that I bookmarked was by Tom Gram, http://performancexdesign.wordpress.com . This blog taked about how a good technology design should include science, art and craft. This blog touched on the fact that as a instructional designer, you will learn from experience as to what works and waht doesn't. But having analysis (science), vision (art) and craft (experience) would be the best solution to an effective learning design.

The third blogger that I bookmarked was Tony Karrer, http://elearningtech.blogspot.com . His blog is regarding the need for better web filters due to busy professionals. I feel that filters would be of great help when trying to locate information in a timely manner.
