The Institute for Instructional Design (IID) is a student-centered initiative sponsored by the Center for Teaching
Excellence. It provides skills training and peer mentoring to professionals wishing to explore the ways in which
technology can be integrated into their course/project curricula. This joint enterprise exploits the talents and resources
of both campus units by providing hands-on, interactive training, instructional design guidance, product development advice,
and pedagogical discussion and debate.
The IID training modules focus on a variety of technological applications through the presentation of hands-on learning
modules. ID Development Workshops are additionally offered in which participants can work on a specific course with the
assistance of technology expert staff members. Our goal is to guide participants in the thought processes and skills needed
to undertake a technological modification or transformation of the instructional materials and learning environments they
create for their students/clients.
