Books for Instructional Designers

Question

December 11, 2003

Kindly suggest good books on writing skills for Instructional designers.

Alka - USA

1554

Answer

Just as writing online help is different than writing a user manual, so too is writing for a CBT or WBT different. Most of the books on Instructional Design go into the preferred type of writing styles.

One interesting book on that subject is "Telling Ain't Training" by Stolovitch. The best bet is to do a search of instructional design on Amazon.com or bn.com to get an idea of what is in the various books.

Best wishes in findg the books you want.
