The focus of our work for the past three years, “The Elements of Instruction: A New Framework for an Era of Emerging Technologies,” is being published by Taylor & Francis, an imprint of Routledge Publishing.
Our aim is to provide a common vocabulary and conceptual schema of teaching and learning that is fully applicable to all forms of instruction in our digital-centric era. This critical examination of the constructs bandied about in the educational technology literature fills a major gap in the logical foundations of instructional theory and instructional design.
The book proposes a new verbal-visual framework for organizing research and theory, plus clear concepts and definitions for its basic elements.
The authors propose a new typology of teaching-learning arrangements to simplify the selection of optimal conditions for a variety of learning goals.
As trends in media, technology, and methodology continue to evolve, these historically contextual, back-to-basics pedagogical tools will be invaluable to all instructional designers and educational researchers.
It is expected to be available in November 2020. Can be pre-ordered now at:
