Ebook: Automating Instructional Design, Development, and Delivery

This workshop was organized and presented by an international group of scholars interested in the advancement of automating instructional design. Although the principal leader for this effort was myself, each of the committee members devoted equally in time and effort in the total preparation and conducting of the workshop. Members of the organizing committee included Dr. Klaus Breuer from disce and the University ofPaderbom (Germany), Dr. Begofia Gros from the University of Barcelona, and Dr. Daniel Muraida and Dr. Michael Spector from the Armstrong Laboratory (USA). Dr. Gros participated as the co-director of the workshop and was directly responsible for the preparation and operation of the workshop in Sitges, Spain. The workshop was held in Sitges, a short distance from Barcelona, March 23-27, 1992. Because of preparations at that time for the 1992 summer Olympic Games in Barcelona, the workshop was moved to a more convenient location. The theme of the workshop included three main topics: planning, production, and implementation. Dr. Peter Goodyear, from the Lancaster University (England), presented the invited keynote address. During the four day workshop, 14 papers were presented and discussed. Following each of the three topic areas, Drs. Gros and Breuer led discussions critiquing the ideas presented.

This book provides an international presentation of the issues and concepts for the automating of instructional system development (ISD). Based on a NATO workshop held as part of the special Programme on Advanced Educational Technology, the book includes information on the planning, production, and implementation of automated ISD. Summaries arepresented of existing successful systems along with specifications for future developments. The book is unique in its comprehensive coverage of automating ISD, from both American and European perspectives. The book provides not only a complete and international review of state-of-the-art knowledge in the field but also discusses future trends andfurther international cooperation in the implementation of advanced automated systems. Readers are given direct access to the history, current development, and future of instructional design automation.
