The Obligatory Links Page

 

Georgia State University
Okay, this is THE site. If you visit no other link, visit this one. When you do,click first on IT Resources. I'm not exaggerating to say that this is a Master's degree by itself! Try the video of Dr. Gagné his work on the conditions of learning or an entire distance learning course on ISD complete with supplemental articles (and it's based on the Dick & Carey model). I could go on and on. Just visit the site, then send me email thanking me.

 

At least a thousand ISD Links
University of Colorado at Denver's Instructional Technology Page. Look at their Corollary Links page. There are more links than you'll ever track down.

 

Electronic Performance Support Systems
The University of Georgia's Program for Instructional Technology maintains this page. It has a good bit of information about Electronic Performance Support Systems.

 

FSU's own Learning Systems Institute
Aside from general information, this page includes a link to the Center for Performance Technology and The Office for Needs Assessment and Planning.

 

Algonquoin College of Applied Arts and Sciences
This is a good general site for educational technology. It features links, html and multimedia authoring help, and a section on distance learning. Can't go wrong here.

 

ERIC Clearinghouse on Information and Technology
What you expect from an ERIC clearinghouse - great digests, a tremendous amount of resource material, and a search engine that could find Jimmy Hoffa.

 

AECT
The homepage for The Association for Educational Communications & Technology. You should already know this since you are a member.

 

ISPI
The homepage for the International Society for Performance Improvement. I'm sure you already have this one bookmarked.

 

Maricopa Center for Learning & Instruction (MCLI)
"Here you will find over 695 examples of how the web is being used as a medium for learning." They aren't exaggerating. You can choose from twenty or thirty categories e.g., (english, math, religion, writing) or do a keyword search for lots of specific ideas. You can even submit your own ideas.

 

Instructional Technology Research Online (InTRO)
This is another Georgia State University site. They have a nice set of links and some research document, but what I like is the Who's Who in Instructional Technology section. Try it.

 

Rapid Software Prototyping
This site by Sheffield Hallam University will be of interest to some. It's a tutorial for teaching rapid prototyping for software, but the similarities to ISD are interesting. Also, it's an easy site to navigate and doesn't take long.

 

Instructional Design Methodologies and Techniques
This site from a graduate student at George Washington University has a nice tutorial function as well as clear descriptions of ISD. Worth the time.
