Special NewsLine Story: Stop Aiming for Interactivity! -- "Why did we all jump on the interactivity bandwagon? The answer is thought provoking. We did it because we don’t fully understand the human learning system." (Comments: Good article. Long. Useful details and cogent argument.)

By the way, don't draw the conclusion that I think the article is totally correct. I think interactivity is critical. I don't think interactivity is bad but, like so many things, it is often done poorly.

Great article!

"The key is to understand the human cognitive system and how it leads to on-the-job performance."

"Our knowledge isn’t perfect, but that doesn’t mean we should settle for overly simplistic nostrums. We need to ride a more meaningful bandwagon."

Certainly applies to far more than just instructional design...
