From the Editor's Desk - May2005

Welcome to this issue of Wavelength. Summer is here and so are new projects. New projects, as we all know, are mercurial in nature. It's difficult to predict the direction in which they will take off. There are times when an instructional designer is caught in the high-energy act of ensuring that the project stays focused and on the right instructional track. Burdened with these responsibilities, yet endowed with limitless creativity, he writes a script.

An instructional designer’s popularity within an organization is inversely proportional to the amount of discomfort it causes to the remaining team. The discomfort usually arises due to time spent in fruitless interactions that take place during the course of development. Some times an instructional designer is caught on the wrong foot because he didn’t know enough about the development tools.

The "Mystery of the Month", that Wavelength sets out to unravel this month, is, what I call peripheral learning. This learning is essential for all those instructional designers and content developers who desire to create content for eLearning.

For the graphically inclined, this month Wavelength has found something wonderful. Remember to check out the Site of the Month!

I would like to thank you all for sending me your views and subscribing to Wavelength.

Warm Regards,

Shafali R. Anand.
