L2TD (Learning about Learning-Technology-Design) is an online forum for sharing best practices in educating the next generation of designers of learning tools. This site collects community resources on teaching and learning in the emerging specialty of learning technology design and is a place to publicize news and upcoming events. All visitors can browse our resources and information. Registered users can add, modify or comment on content, as described in our tutorial.

We hope our materials will support the professor teaching a course involving the creation of educational software or educational games; the researcher in the learning sciences; and the student or hobbyist designing learning technologies for the first time. More about L2TD


Courses - A list of courses involving Learning Technology Design
Readings - An annotated reading list for teacher and student

Shelley Goldman of Stanford reports that both Erlbaum and Springer have offered contracts for the L2TD book. There's talk that the book's working title ("New Designers, New Technology, New Learning: Guiding and Inspiring Creators of Innovative Educational Tools") needs to be shortened, but the offers are the important thing at the moment. Now the editors have the luxury of choosing the best publisher for the book, instead of just having a publisher.
