ISD From The Ground Up: A No-Nonsense Approach to Instructional Design

This is one of the best book I have read that helps me design lessons for both children and adults. If you design professional development courses, you must read this book.

This is a fantastic book. It gives a detailed approach to the subject matter. I highly recommend it.

The Hodell book on instructional design was the shinning story of my graduate introduction to instructional design course I recently took at My local University. In hindsight I should have purchased the book and skipped the course... Chuck's writing invites your attention providing a great foundation to understand ADDIE and its supporting role in course design. Great examples from m the business world and practical advice all worked well for me. Why four stars? Well I have an aversion to statements like "this is the most important ..." If it's the most important then it should only be in the book once, or be repeated exactly the same rather used multiple times to describe different elements. Overall a good read, educational I am likely to use as a reference in the future.

This work was an authoritative text for an instructional design course. Its contents are well organized and robustly reasoned. I wish I had come across the author sooner.

Love the way the author engages the reader on instructional design. This is helpful in my grad schooling, but will remain a useful tool within my professional career, as well.

Great book! Easy to read and full of valuable information.

Great book

Great resource and reference

There is no other books on Instructional design that is comparable with this book. If you are an ardent fan of ADDIE, this book is for you.
