Features: The field of instructional design theory and practice has undergone a journey spanning over half a century, evolving from an initial narrow focus on programmed instruction to a multidimensional research area integrating psychology, technology, evaluation, measurement, and management. Its applications and theoretical development have become an international endeavor, extending across various professional and administrative training, classroom learning, and professional education. This volume is a collaborative effort by leading figures in various subfields of international instructional design, aiming to establish a common international reference foundation for instructional design theory, research, and practice. The clearly defined theoretical, research, and modeling foundations outlined in this volume span multiple disciplines, including philosophy of learning and teaching, cultural studies, psychology, pedagogy, management, measurement, and technology, thereby building multidimensional bridges to bridge the gap between the foundations and applications of instructional design.
