[Air-L] CfP: Designing learning for high-impact, high stakes distance contexts (IJDL Special Issue)

[Tonia A. Dousay]

o you design instruction or learning environments for
high-stakes/high-impact distance or online learning environments? Then we
have a publication opportunity for you! The *International Journal of
Designs for Learning *(
https://scholarworks.iu.edu/journals/index.php/ijdl/index) is a
multidisciplinary, peer-reviewed online journal dedicated to publishing
descriptions of artifacts, environments and experiences created to promote
and support learning in all contexts by designers in any field.

AECT's Division of Distance Learning is sponsoring a special issue of IJDL
dedicated to online and distance design cases that detail the key moments
in the design process for learning with high-stakes/high-impact
implications. These contexts often have regulated initial and continuing
education requirements that require special considerations. For some, the
length of the learning experience must meet minimum requirements or be
accessible offline only. For others, the content may be particularly
sensitive, requiring a delicacy with respect to content presentation not
often encountered in other learning designs. Common learners who experience
these designs include emergency responders, active duty military,
incarcerated populations, medical professionals, crisis counselors,
classified security personnel, and utility and public works employees.

This special issue will be guest edited by Dr. Tonia A. Dousay, University
of Idaho (tonia at uidaho.edu). For the full call for proposals, including how
design cases differ from traditional publications, visit
