Defining Instructional Design

It all starts with the BIG question: What is Instructional Design and what does it mean in today's ever-changing workplace?

 

Several years ago, I wrote a blog post titled "Instructional Design Isn't Dead." I suppose now, I could write a post about how "Instructional design isn't dead. It just has a new name".

 

But as Shakespeare said, "A rose by another name is still a rose." And this holds true for instructional design.
