Bechem, I forwarded your article to a retired professor in Arizona, here is his response:
Great article. He includes the basic tenants that all good instructional designers should be building into courses and curriculum. Effectively incorporating learning styles insures that the learner regardless of individual style will have a higher success rate in the learning process. A large percentage of online learning is crap and poorly designed. It's not only technology put how it is designed and used.
Bechem, a great article… again. My takeaway was summed in your closing challenge. Now it is up to the parents and our communities to elect only those who support teacher creativity. Unionists, politicians, and sluggards sap the creative juices from those teachers who can make a difference.
BTW, congrats on your new consulting contract. Sounds exciting. At some point your readership might enjoy reading a case study.
