Current Progress and Future Directions for Research in Instructional Technology.
Clark, Richard E.
Educational Technology Research and Development, v37 n1 p57-66 1989
Discussion of research problems in instructional technology emphasizes two main needs: (1) development of a prescriptive research methodology; and (2) more front end analysis that produces a distinction between instructional design research and instructional development research. Two examples of research using the prescriptive technology approach are given from the field of psychology. (24 references) (LRW)
