Season 05 - Episode 03: Leadership: Whose Job Is It Anyway?

Instruction By Design

In this episode, the instructional designers from Arizona State University’s Edson College of Nursing and Health Innovation (Jinnette Senecal, Celia Coochwytewa, and Aaron Kraft) explore various facets of leadership in higher education environments. We then consider the ways in which instructional designers may fulfill leadership roles or responsibilities. Today’s HOT TOPIC segment is a forward-thinking conversation about how learning management systems could be reenvisioned to maximize learner success. Resources from the episode: *Ashbaugh, M.
