Instructor competencies, offered as professional development frameworks, identify the knowledge, skills, and attitudes that enable effective instruction. A 2021 version of Instructor Competencies is now available from The International Board for Standards, Training, Performance and Instruction (IBSTPI). These 2021 standards, appropriate for instructors and trainers in all settings, are based on well-established instructional principles that are flexible enough to allow for adjustments to new understandings in the science of teaching and learning, the integration of best practices, and adaptability to emerging tools and technology. With this update of IBSTPI’s 2004 Instructor Competencies, the framework now includes four domains of performance, 19 competencies, 150 performance statements and these three conditions defining instructors’ work: core, blended, and online. which often fails learners or has high attrition rates.
Grounded on rigorous research, consulting hundreds of practitioners around the world, this book articulates and explains what is required to be a competent instructional designer. It includes the set of standards that clarifies the profession and provides a set of competencies for creating hiring schemes, professional development guidelines, performance assessments, work plans, and curriculum to prepare instructional designers. The instructional designer profession continues to grow in wake of emerging technologies, new pedagogies, and virtual learning environments.
