Abstract

In this article the impact of the tools being developed as part of the Second Generation Instructional Design (ID2) Research Program on the process of instructional design is described. ID2 supports rapid prototyping as a design and development process. Rapid prototyping is described and contrasted with the instructional systems development (ISD) process.
