In this episode of IDIODC we have the pleasure of talking with the founder of the 5 Moments of Need, Dr. Conrad Gottfredson.
Dr. Gottfredson recently released a white paper titled EnABLE: The 5 Moments of Need Instructional Systems Design Methodology. And if you missed it, or have not downloaded it, I would encourage you to do so.
The brief white paper introduction describes it best:
"When it comes to instructional design, most corporate learning programs still focus on knowledge rather than performance. Although gaining and retaining knowledge is an appropriate primary focus in academic institutions, the real world of work calls for a performance first approach to Instructional Systems Design (ISD) where knowledge requirements are driven by what people need to do. With that in mind, we have spent the last four decades evolving traditional ISD practices into a performance-based instructional design methodology that we call EnABLE.
EnABLE is the 5 Moments of Need instructional systems design methodology that empowers L&D groups to be the strategic partners their organizations require to adapt, to learn, and to perform ahead of change."
If you’re new to the 5 Moments of Need then prepare to have your instructional design world challenged in this conversation with Dr. Conrad Gottfredson.
