Merrill’s First Principles connect deeply with several other instructional design principles, and this is why, regardless of your own process of building effective courses, you’ll find the principles reflected in your design. In this post, we see how these principles reflect in the IDCDT-AIM Course.
AI Workslop or sloppy work done using AI, is the new villain in the workplace. Read about what AI workslop is, its causes, its long-term and short-term effects, and how to contain it.

The phrase that’s getting thrown around a lot these days is, “The AI bubble is about to burst!” This post presents the 6 factors that are contributing to the expanding girth of this bubble. This post also introduces the Stark Streak cartoons.
The future instructional designer will be expected to engineer holistic learning experiences. This article helps simplify the purpose and application of xAPI for those Instructional Designers who are either already doing an xAPI-related task without knowing “why,” or who want to prepare themselves for the future.
