Carr-Chellman, Davin J.; Carr-Chellman, Ali – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2020
This paper explores the role and history of systems theory and thinking in the fields of instructional/educational technology and design. The foundations of ID/ET as fields are rich in behavioral, systematic, and positivist notions of process, but we assert that it is weaker in the reflective, thoughtful, deep and meaningful orientations. Woven…
