Instructional Design for LOs What is Instructional Design? Instructional Design is the systematic development of instructional specifications using learning and instructional theory to ensure the quality of instruction. It is the entire process of analysis of learning needs and goals and the development of a delivery system to meet those needs. It includes development of instructional materials and activities; and tryout and evaluation of all instruction and learner activities

Instructional Design for LOs Some considerations... Learning objects are component in a larger learning environment Use LOs in a broad instructional perspective Use LOs within a LMS to track usage Analyse student engagement to improve the LO Create LOs that are short (say 10-15 mts) Store LOs in a database with appropriate metadata tags for easy retrieval and use Make LOs as Open Educational Resources
