Strategic Education
Strategic Education
(originally written in 2021. In 2025, it remains one of my favorite L&D books)
Why did I wait so long to read this book? It is basically a handbook for ensuring the education given will provide the desired results and support the original goal. I do have a business mind as well as a heart for wanting to do a job that matters, so I am in love with the idea that education can save time and resources AND contribute to what matters most in each situation.
Application: I was called into an interdisciplinary group that is tasked with providing an education plan to address both knowledge and behavior gaps. With Moore on my side, I have asked repeatedly, what is the goal? What is the measurable goal? How will we know that the goal(s) have been met?
This task force and plan will span the next year. I am thankful to have Map It as a resource.
A few of my current favorites to follow for professional development!
A few of my current favorites to follow for professional development!
Megan Torrance, Torrance Learning. I am currently reading her book Agile for Instructional Designers; it is clear, instructional and applicable. I have joined the xAPI cohort to learn more about using data to design eLearning.
Connie Malamed, the eLearning Coach. After following her for a year online, I signed up for her Mastering ID class forum last fall. Six months in her group and I created this portfolio and completed her Instructional Design Master Class as a refresher. Fabulous resource and group!
Julie Dirksen, author of Design for How People Learn. Though it has been around for a while, I recently started following her Facebook group "Design for How People Learn."
Gretchen Rubin, author of the Happiness Project. If you haven't read this book, do it! She has a podcast and active social media profile.
