Technologies and Instructional Design

• Think about "Instructional Technology before Information Technology"

– What the students will learn and do rather than what you want to teach

– What technologies are available to your students and yourself

– How your students will demonstrate their learning outcomes rather than how you would like them to assess

– Match content, technology and pedagogy
