I found the whole module very interesting. A blend of concepts, FAQs, drawing of parallels of different ID theories. The module helps one to apply the standards of ID in creating an end to end course. Since an Instructional Designer is supposed to be a quasi expert on various subjects, this module helps one to face the challenge of creating any subject course material. It gives you a confidence to take up any topic and create the module. The USP of this module is that it gives u a deep insights of the basics as well as it is more application based rather than just giving’direct’ facts.
The MCQs are challenging, since the questions are not direct and is mostly application based, one can rate their own understanding through these MCQs.
I found this module very interesting. The episodes are a good blend of theories, FAQs and draws parallels between the various theories of ID. The USP of this module is that it is application based and triggers a self analysis of how to apply these concepts, which theory to apply and which one to leave out. The complete module in itself is a live example of how to approach an end to end design for any subject.
The MCQs are not direct and very intellectually crafted. After attempting the course end assignment, one can self analyse the understanding gained from the module.
A very interesting module. The way things are explained, along with examples, is so good. The FAQs are so informative. It kind of widened the range of thinking from seeing the content from the knowledge perspective to presenting it in an engaging way.
The courses followed by the 2 day workshop was just the thing I needed at the start of my career as a content writer.
It was interesting and quite engaging!
It is an amazing and very detaailed quiz and it tested my knowlede thoroughly. Thank you ID Mentors team.
Good, informative training, but very lengthy. While it was well structured, consistency in the flow of each lesson made it very monotonous. Overall, a useful course.
The ID for Practitioners course is comprehensive , yet crisp and helped in giving a structure to the logic/ stages while developing content. The course has been designed interestingly with a blend of videos, assignments, assessments and contact sessions that helped in holding interest as well providing information and a platform to clarify concerns.
The templates and reading material is helping me at work.
Very informative course. Got to learn the principles effectively
good content.
Thoroughly enjoyed the course module. Intelligently designed not just to inform and educate, but also to serve as an example of how a good instructional design should be. Well-paced, with assessments and application in ”just the right measure!’ I would also recommend learners get their hands on the Beginner’s Guide to ID by Mrs. Purnima Valiathan to support their course journey.
The course content is comprehensive and useful
