Some useful blogs about Instructional Design

Here are some blogs that I found to be useful and informative.


This blog is written by Christy Tucker, an instructional designer and former teacher. Although Christy only started blogging five years ago, this is a useful blog especially for people who are getting into the field of instructional design. The blog contains information on topics such as the work of an instructional designer and how to get into instructional design. Christy’s blog also provides a point of reference to various sites with useful information on instructional design such as an overview of Instructional Design in E-learning by George Siemens and Instructional Systems Design model ADDIE by Don Clark.


This blog is written by Tom Kuhlmann, an instructional designer with over fifteen years experience. The blog is not only visually engaging but also very educational. The posts are extremely helpful and provide tips and resources on a wide range of topics such as the effective use of instructional design software tools, designing the right courses and managing e-learning projects. All of Tom’s posts are so useful and helpful that it is difficult to single out an outstanding post. However, I found the post Here Are Ten Rules to Create Engaging Elearning to be amongst my favorites.


This blog is written by Tony Karrer who is an expert on the innovative use of technology and has wide experience in both business and education spanning more than thirty years. The blog is frequently updated with a variety of educational content that is useful to many professionals. Tony’s blog includes links and references to other useful sites such as eLearning Learning which collects and aggregates the best content on elearning from various sources. I found the post eLearning Learning Adds Personalized Subscriptions to be very informative.
