I used to suck at creating impactful learning journeys. • 0 Course Completions • 0 Engagement • 0% Return on Training Investment It felt like I was going through an endless loop of disappointment. But then I found a hack that changed everything. It's a shift of thinking from Instructional Design to Performance Design. Here are 5 key takeaways from my journey that have not only changed my approach but have also led to sustainable and impactful results with my customers. 1. ​Focus on Performance, Not Just Knowledge​: I learned that the goal isn't only to transfer knowledge but to enhance performance. Performance Design centers on what learners will be able to do differently or better, rather than what they will end up knowing or understanding. It's measured by application.  2. ​Analyze the Root Cause​: Instead of jumping straight into course creation, I now start with a thorough analysis of the performance gap. Understanding the real issues allows for targeted solutions that truly address the needs of the business and its employees. This investigative approach helps to build more impactful learning experiences.  3. ​Design for the Real World​: Performance Design involves creating learning experiences that mimic real-life tasks and challenges. This practical approach ensures that learners can directly apply what they've learned, leading to immediate improvements in their work. 360 degree feedback, video hand in assignments and more can assist with accessing behaviors over time and identify measurable performance improvements.   4. ​Measure What Matters​: Shifting the focus from metrics like course completions to performance outcomes has been a absolute game-changer. By measuring the impact of training on actual work performance, I've been able to demonstrate a tangible return on training investment. Linking this to other datasets available within the business, varies by industry but is crucial to gain the right perspectives from a reporting perspective.  5. ​Iterate, iterate, iterate: Continuous improvement is key. By gathering and ACTING on feedback from learners, stakeholders and the data, I've been able to refine and enhance the effectiveness of L&D programs over time. This journey from Instructional Design to Performance Design has not only elevated my L&D strategies but has also led to: 1. Higher Course Completions 2. Increased Engagement 3. Significant Return on Training Investment The transformation has been awesome, and I'm excited to continue exploring and innovating within the realm of Performance Design. If you're looking to make a similar leap in your L&D efforts, I hope these insights inspire and guide you towards achieving lasting results. #LearningAndDevelopment #PerformanceDesign #InstructionalDesign #ProfessionalGrowth #L&DTransformation #newleaftech #eLearning

✨️What's the beauty of instructional design? It empowers others. ✨️ There's a great quote by Robert Ingersoll that goes: "We rise by lifting others." This really resonates with me, especially in the context of instructional design. It's like we're all in a journey together. As instructional designers, our role is to give learners a boost, helping them enhance their skills and knowledge. In many ways, what we do when we design and develop dynamic learning experiences is similar to dropping a pebble in a pond—the ripples continue to spread, creating positive changes far and wide. When I create learning experiences that truly resonate with learners, it’s incredible to witness the TRANSFORMATION. I've witnessed people... ◇ grow 🌱, ◇ succeed 📈 , and often ◇ turn around to help others 🤝 It's a domino effect of learning and empowerment. This is my why. 💜 →→→→→→→How does learning and development inspire you? #instructionaldesign #LX #adultlearning #learnandrise

Let's use GenAI to help Instructional Designers practice skills to prepare them for job interviews. I used AWS PartyRock to make an app that populates 5 behavioral based interview questions from an AI Instructional Design hiring manager. You select a question you want to answer and respond in STAR format. The app will give you feedback how well you answered with tips. An even better idea for this would be if the AI could analyze voice versus text but technically you could paste in a transcript from a recording to get feedback. I’m not a fan how it’s still referencing learning styles for a question but I’m sure there are hiring managers who are asking similar questions. 😂 See comments to use the app. This is day 5/30 of using PR to build my GenAI skills.

My favorite webinar series is the Quick Tips. They come from community questions and allow us to play around with different ideas. And it's a good way to learn some of the nuance of working with Articulate 360. We started putting the tips into articles so they're easier to find. And I've been slowly getting mine pulled from the webinar and into YouTube. https://lnkd.in/gjw-N4mq https://lnkd.in/g2t4mgwm #elearning #training #onlinelearning #Storyline

Here's my prediction for the future of Instructional Design! Subject Matter Expert says the content or provides the content and within minutes an Instructor Guide, Participant Book and a Slide Deck will be ready for review. The role of Instructional Designers will be to finetune the AI through example Slide Decks, Participant Guides and Instructor Guides as well create style guide instruction prompts for the AI to develop the materials as desired. Next growth area is automation of instructional design! #aiforid #instructionaldesign #genAI
