(Alexandria, VA) May 11, 2021—The Association for Talent Development announces the publication of
Introduction to Instructional Systems Design by instructional design expert Chuck Hodell. This comprehensive and first-ever instructional design textbook provides the prerequisites that every instructional designer needs to get started in the profession and become both informed and conversational in the basics of the field.
While the instructional design field has been around for a long time, it is only within the last 30 years that it has emerged more as a discipline with educational courses, resources, and methodologies. However, instruction is often offered under different names and different departments at colleges and universities, and often taught from varying experiences and perspectives given a lack of foundational resources. Hodell has created a comprehensive resource that will help set a consistent standard for teaching instructional systems design (ISD).
