Who am I as an instructional designer today won\u2019t be the same a year from now<\/span><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n Another reason I find answering the question of who am I as an instructional designer to be challenging is that the answer is going to change over time. Who am I as an instructional designer today won\u2019t be the same a year from now, we change along with our skills and experiences. Therefore, I wanted to find an answer that would be fair, authentic, and perpetual. This is when I realized, that the reasons I chose to pursue instructional design overall is the answer I am looking for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why I chose to study and pursue instructional design (ID) shapes who am I as an instructional designer and lays the foundation of my ID practice. I selected ID because it evolves around development, learning, research, and diversity. Development is core to me, thus in my practice I would ensure that I am always working with my clients to develop their employees, students, and educational products. Learning in my ID work does not only apply to my contribution to people\u2019s learning, but also to my willingness to spend time to learn about the clients\u2019 business, background, and environment. Research is of importance in my practice as it helps me better understand the clients\u2019 needs, and ensure that I am providing them with best practices and approach. Diversity is a value I seek in my work from working in diversified environments, projects, and industries, to the representation of diversity in the projects I produce. Making it short, my answer to who am I as an instructional designer is, I am a keen instructional designer who can help you build diversified learning experiences based on extensive research to help you develop your team and business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is me as an instructional designer. My question for you is, who are you as an instructional designer?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Would love to hear your thoughts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
