Abstract

Oregon State University investigated the ways in which instructional designers could be more closely involved in research on teaching and learning. This Brief reports results from a survey that was conducted to better understand what previous training instructional designers have received in research methods and design, how they are engaging in research on teaching and learning, and whether they feel prepared to conduct research in their current roles.
