Instructional design is the process by which instructions is improved through the analysis of learning needs and developments of learning materials. Instructional designers often use technology and multimedia as tools to enhance instructions.
The purpose of information design is to make the instructions effective, efficient and appealing. The instructional designer uses a vast amount of interactive media to enhance and improve learning. For example, face to face teaching methods can be enhanced and even be replaced by innovative e-learning methods.
Many instructional designers attempt to make content much simpler is to take out information. However, it just leaves learners with unanswered questions. The key solution is not to take out information but to present the content in a simpler way.
We now live in the Information Age where the need to attain information is in constant demand.Information is now distributed across a vast network and shared among people from around the world. Information designers are now challenged to help people use this information safely, wisely and productively as they adapt a rapidly changing world.
