Using self-efficacy (SE), andragogical, and pedagogical frameworks, the goal for this study was to explore instructional designer (IDer) narratives in response to questions focused on their perceptions of instructional design (ID) practices for creation of workplace education and training assets, specifically intentionality in the use of transfer…

A three-phase "task-first" lesson structure is frequently suggested when teaching mathematics through inquiry. We investigate how secondary school teachers of mathematics structure their inquiry lessons and examine how and why they deviate from a "task-first" structure. We present detailed lesson observation data from three…

The problem addressed in this study was that online training designers experience barriers when implementing evaluations to assess knowledge transfer after 3-6 months. This qualitative exploratory case study aimed to explore online training designers' experiences and perceptions regarding the barriers faced when working with project stakeholders…

Higher education institutions are increasingly looking to implement online and distance learning (ODL) options for students. Professional development for the design of ODL is needed to support these strategies.
