Design for How People Learn

Julie Dirksen is a well-known international speaker and instructor who has been named a Guild Master by The eLearning Guild.

Today's products, technologies, and workplaces evolve so rapidly that everyone is constantly learning. Many of us teach even when it is not part of our job description. We need and want to share our knowledge with others, whether it's through giving a presentation, publishing documentation, or developing a website or blog. But if you've ever dozed off while reading a dull textbook or skipped through a laborious e-learning exercise, you know that creating a wonderful learning experience is more difficult than it appears.

You'll learn how to employ the main concepts of learning, memory, and attention to create materials that help your audience gain and keep the knowledge and skills you're imparting in Design For How People Learn, Second Edition. This new edition has been updated to incorporate new approaches for using social media for learning as well as two entirely new chapters on designing for habit and best practices for measuring learning, such as how and when to utilize assessments.

Design For How People Learn, Second Edition will teach you how to harness the fundamental concepts of instructional design to improve your own learning as well as engage your audience by using accessible visual metaphors and real approaches and examples. It is regarded as one of the best books on business communication.
