Stephanie Moore; Amir Hedayati-Mehdiabadi; Victor Law; Sung Pil Kang – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2024
Early hype cycles surrounding new technologies may promote simplistic binary options of either adoption or rejection, but socio-historical analyses of technologies illuminate how they are worked into shape by human actors. Humans enact agency through many choices that result in adaptations and contextual variations. In this piece, we argue that…

Wasson, Barbara; Kirschner, Paul A. – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2020
Research on instructional and learning design is 'booming' in Europe, although there has been a move from a focus on content and the way to present it in a formal educational context (i.e., instruction), to a focus on complex learning, learning environments including the workplace, and access to learner data available in these environments. We…
