What do Instructional Designers wish they knew before becoming IDs? I couldn’t find this information anywhere, so I did the research. I asked 50 Instructional Designers what they wish they knew before becoming IDs.

Today’s episode is a real special one. I had the privilege of talking to Dr. Katie Novak and Tom Thibodeau. They are the authors of UDL in the Cloud: How to Design and Deliver Online Education Using Universal Design for Learning. What’s UDL? You’re about to find out and it’s going to change the way you design your next course.

How do you convert a face-to-face class into an online course? I've simplified the process for you for what I have done at MIT.

As online courses are designed at a rapid rate, I want to slow down and bring attention to one group who needs our support the most: the students.

How do you revise an online course to make it the best it can possibly be? My research at MIT and for my dissertation has given me a unique approach to improving online courses and yes, it's ridiculously nerdy.

If you have worked in higher education before, you probably noticed that the culture was different depending who you talked to and where. Why is that?

Are you stuck in ABD limbo? Let me help you finally finish your dissertation.

Welcome in to your new podcast! My name is Dr. Luke Hobson. I'm a Program Manager for MIT and an Online Instructor for SNHU.
