Ep 1: Instructional Design? What’s that?!

Learning Lights - The Instructional Design, eLearning, and Training Podcast by Shafali Anand

Episode 1 :: "Instructional Design? What’s that?!"

"Is it something like Graphic Design?"

"Oh, you mean Industrial Design?"

If this is how people react when you mention the term instructional design, or if you are someone whose own reaction is similar to this – then, listen to this episode of the Learning Lights podcast.

In this episode, we face our instructional truth – that instructional design isn’t a stranger to us and that we’ve felt its presence our entire lives! As Shafali shares two extremely relatable examples from her own life and lays down the foundation for this podcast in your beautiful mind – you feel instructional design helping your own learning along.

This episode also explains why we need Instructional Design for creating content for eLearning, training, and other educational material, and how it helps.

If you are starting out in Instructional Design, or even if you’ve been into it for a while whether as an ID, a trainer, a content developer, or a teacher, but you are still not quite sure of what it means (this happens a lot, and it happens to a lot of us…so don’t worry,) then you should tune in to this episode and subscribe to the Learning Lights Podcast – it’s available on Spotify, Google Podcasts, and Radio Public.
