*** NOTICE ***
The ERIC Clearinghouse on
Information & Technology
web site is no longer in operation.
The United States Department of Education
continues to offer the
ERIC Database
at
https://www.eric.ed.gov
All ERIC Clearinghouses plus
AskERIC will be closed permanently as of December 31, 2003.
In January 2004, the Department
of Education will implement a reengineering plan for ERIC. The new ERIC
mission continues the core function of providing a centralized bibliographic
database of journal articles and other published and unpublished education
materials. It enhances the database by adding free full text and electronic
links to commercial sources and by making it easy to use and up to date.
From January 2004 until
the new ERIC model for acquiring education literature is developed later in
2004, no new materials will be received and accepted for the database. However,
the ERIC database will continue to grow, as thousands of documents selected by
the ERIC clearinghouses throughout 2003 will be added. When the new model is
ready later in 2004, the new ERIC contractor will communicate with publishers,
education organizations, and other database contributors to add publications
and materials released from January 2004 forward.

NEW! Instructional Design Competencies: The Standards. Third Edition. by Rita C. Richey, Dennis C. Fields, and Marguerite Foxon with Robert C. Roberts, Timothy Spannaus, and J. Michael Spector.
In 1986, the International Board of Standards for Training, Performance and Instruction (IBSTPI) published the first edition of Instructional Design Competencies: The Standards. It was the culmination of work that began in 1978. In retrospect, that work occurred in the infancy (or at least the toddler years) of the practice of instructional design (ID). In this volume IBSTPI presents its latest view of the competencies of instructional designers. It is a greatly expanded view that reflects the complexities of current practice and technology, theoretical advancements, and the social tenor of the times. Nonetheless, it is a view that is still rooted in the traditional notion of instructional design competence. 220 pp. (approx.) 6" x 9"; $20.00; IR-111. (ISBN: 0-937597-52-X)

Surviving Change: A Survey of Educational Change Models by James B. Ellsworth
Ellsworth fashions a theoretical roadmap for managing change based upon the change literature. This text makes several "assumptions" about approaching change: (1) that change can be understood and managed, (2) that there are several helpful models for managing change, and (3) that lasting change considers the needs and priorities of many stakeholder groups.
