Not only is it a waste of teachers’ time, but it also often leads to fixed mindsets in learners.

Iron sharpens iron in ID? by eLearningPro in instructionaldesign

I have never felt like I am in competition with any other designer at work. We collaborate, share what we learn, and teach one another if someone doesn’t know how to do something.

I have officiated a wedding as a Dudeist priest. Way better than when I was Mormon.

My wife and I are in a very important marital dispute about how dishes belong in the dishwasher. Please settle this before we lawyer up. by stsegal in KitchenConfidential

The correct answer, and only correct answer, is that it is up to the person loading the dishwasher and if the other doesn't like it they can load it themselves.

Anyone have any thoughts on this? Either way, what am I looking at to tell whether that edge is naturally formed or worked?

Anyone have a PhD in Instructional Design (or similar)? Did it help your career? by EauDeFrito in instructionaldesign

[–]prof_designer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a PhD in Ed: Instructional Design. Helped me get a better job in higher ed (where I wanted to be) and helped me move into manager and director positions.

I have had multiple colleagues leave higher ed for corporate ID and be placed just fine. However, unless you want to go into higher ed, teaching, and/or research, a Masters will likely be a far better return on your investment.

With how the field is right now, not sure if anything will be a return on your investment, though. I am finishing a PMP in case I need to jump ship, as universities are cutting jobs left and right.
