Raising the bar for instructional outcomes: Towards transformative learning experiences.
Abstract
Most instructional technologists understand that instruction aims to be effective, efficient,
and appealing. These three quality indicators have proven useful in establishing desired
outcomes. In this article we suggest an expanded set of indicators, with more attention to
social impact, engagement, and the learner’s experience. By broadening and deepening
our expectations, we hope to encourage more research on instruction leading to powerful
or transformative learning.
