Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Edup Ed Tech, we interviewed Dr. Katie Wolfe-Burelson and Marissa Gilbert from Anderson University. They discuss the Instructional Design and Learning Technology program at the university. The program is a 30-credit hour, 100% online master's degree that offers courses on various topics such as instructional design, online learning, mobile learning, and media development.

The program also emphasizes collaboration, both between students and with instructors, and provides opportunities for students to connect with the greater instructional design community. The hosts also ask whether a master's degree is necessary for success in instructional design, to which the guests respond that while it is not always required, a master's degree provides a strong foundation and helps individuals think about learning differently. The program at Anderson University is constantly evolving and is looking to offer courses on emerging topics such as AI in learning.
