In Issues in Technology, Learning, and Instructional Design, some of the best-known scholars in those fields produce powerful, original dialogues that clarify current issues, provide context and theoretical grounding, and illuminate a framework for future thought. Position statements are introduced and then responded to, covering a remarkably broad series of topics across educational technology, learning, and instructional design, from tool use to design education to how people learn. Reminiscent of the well-known Clark/Kozma debates of the 1990s, this book is a must-have for professionals in the field and can also be used as a textbook for graduate or advanced undergraduate courses.
Carr-Chellman and Rowland bring together over fifty contemporary scholars in our field to share their perspectives on critical, theoretical, and practitioner issues. The dialogue format is easy to read, rich with research-based references, and likely to be recognized as a new seminal work for the discipline. A must read!
