| description | As an open and distance learning provider, Open University Malaysia (OUM) prioritises the
quality of its learning modules. These modules are the primary learning material for OUM’s
self-managed students within and outside Malaysia. One of the crucial processes involved in
this continuous improvement of learning modules is instructional design. Being accredited as
ISO 9001:2000 compliance, the process of instructional design at the Centre for Instructional
Design and Technology (CiDT) has not been without challenges. In fact, it is more difficult
indeed for instructional designers to justify that quality has always play a major role during the
instructional design process. This paper will report on the continuous efforts done to improve
on the quality of OUM’s learning materials. What process is considered a success story for
one print module may differ from another. Lessons learned and the continuous improvements
of the quality of the instructional designers are also discussed in this paper. The findings from
this study accentuate further improvement needed for the process. The results of the findings
have direct implications on future creation and development of OUM print modules. |
