Revamping a Web-based Course to Meet the Instructional Needs of Different Audiences: Instructional Technology, Business and Industry, Computer Science and Teacher Candidate Students

Abstract

Instructional Technology degree programs must meet the needs of numerous specialized areas of expertise; areas of interest include people from several walks of life and areas of interest that include teacher candidates, PreKindergarten-12 education, community colleges, higher education, business and industry, computer science, and communications. Concentrating upon one Web-based course's restructuring efforts that successfully address significantly different learners' areas of emphasis will add to the extensive evolution of knowledge within this area; however, a significantly innovative elemental shift will offer a novel consideration towards Web-based course instructional design.
