The Affordances of Content Design

I'm linking to this because I think people should see it. But it still strikes me as a very traditionalist approach to online learning. Perhaps that's appropriate - perhaps there isn't any way to advance beyond the Standard Model. Here's Feldstein describing how one product succeeds: "If you understand teaching, and if you look at the improvements made in the self-study content and the in-class teaching strategies, you quickly come to see that it's not technology magic but thoughtful curriculum design, solid product usability and utility, and hard work in the classroom that produced these gains." A lost of what he describes here is based on old-style adaptive learning, for example, where a function shows a video if you score below a certain grade. "Notice in this example that we are still starting with performance against a learning objective. We are still starting with content design."
