Welcome to the Instructional Design Electronic Workbook!

          This tool has developed fairly informally over the last several years by graduate students at the University of South Alabama at my urging. It is intended as a tool to aid those interested in learning basic instructional design principles. This first version of the Instructional Design Electronic Workbook is based on Gagne', Briggs, and Wager's Principles of Instructional Design, one of the classics of the field. Our intention is to continue to develop additional versions of this resource with varying content related to instructional design. Like this workbook, we will distribute it at no cost on the Internet. I'd appreciate any suggestions you have about future directions this resource might take.

           If you would like a CD-ROM version of the Instructional Design Electronic Workbook, you may order one at a nominal cost by contacting Ms Gail McLean at gmclean@usouthal.edu. Any proceeds from these CD-ROMs will be used by the USA IDD Student Group.

          If you or someone you know is interested in our masters or doctoral program, we'll be happy to provide information. We have doctoral assistantships available and are especially interested in attracting talented full-time students to that program. For further information regarding this site or the Instructional Design and Development Program at the University of South Alabama, contact me or another USA faculty member.

          In order to view this program, you will need the Shockwave for Authorware plug-in, available from Macromedia. Download the version of Shockwave that is appropriate for your operating system and then install it on your computer. Click the picture below to start the ID Electronic Workbook or click here.
