Instructional Design is a field that has not been dealt much in detail in some countries but has gone full blown in others. Coming from a place where Instructional Design is simply one component in a program,as opposed to being the program itself, I find this book of Gagne enriching and enlightening. The process of instruction is not a random assemblage of learning activities that may have its own individual value but becomes nothing when put together for no particular intended purpose.

Principles of Instructional Design is a comprehensive yet succinct resource for this crucial component of education.

This indeed the best guide book on instructional design. This book travel on 9 instructional events from planning instructions to execution which touch base on setting goals, learning objectives, need analysis, instruction sequencing and assessments. Must read category book!

Good for ID principles. I think it can get rough to understand sometimes but I think that some of that is me deliriously reading this at 1am after working on my ID project for 5 hours and reading for another 6. But again, great for reference.
