Open Education and Instructional Design Models
Open education is about the way people produce, insight, share, and build on knowledge in an open learning environment. Proponents of open education believe that high-quality educational resources and practical experiences of higher qualified specialists should be freely available for everyone. However, they neglect two important drivers: Cartesian view and social learning. In the context of the other chapters of this book, it appeared to be appropriate for this chapter to focus on metasystems transition perspective of instructional design. This chapter aims to understand the correlation between instructional design models and metasystems transition perspective. The book chapter concludes with solutions with recommendations for future research concerning the role of metasystems in learning theory and design.
