The subject identifies traditional approaches to instructional design and evaluation and critically contrasts them with alternative processes in the context of different learning environments and individual requirements. The concepts of, and techniques for, needs analysis, team approaches to design, implementation and evaluation in various work place environments (e.g. school, higher education, armed forces, public service and industry) are a particular focus.
