Towards Meaningful Learning Experiences
What every learning designer should consider:
-
Brain science for designers: "Designing with the Mind in Mind: Simple Guide to Understanding User Interface Design Guidelines" Jeff Johnson (2013)
-
"e-Learning and the Science of Instruction: Proven Guidelines for Learners and Designers of Multimedia Learning" Mayer and Clark (2016)
-
Formal academic research on best practices in online learning, my pick is "TechTrends Journal: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning. A publication of Association for Educational Communications & Technology."
"Smart" content doesn't mean anything if your users can't access it.
