Take the ID Road to Success

Training & Development, April, 2001 by Gary W. James

10. Apply instructional strategies that enhance the transfer of new material. Instruction is more effective when you use strategies that enhance the learning experience in such a way that learners are inspired to study more advanced topics on the job.

Incorporating solid ID principles should govern what technologies you decide to use in your course. Ultimately, objectives drive course content, course content drives course structure, course structure drives instructional strategies, and instructional strategies drive how you use technology. Then and only then are you prepared to design, develop, and deliver more effective technology-based training programs.
