It’s a beautiful day, and you’re heading to the beach for week of fun in the sun. You’re a half hour into your trip when it strikes you that you forgot your map on the kitchen table. Your mood is so bright, though, you figure things will just work out. “http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/theprescription/~3/DuYpL2gCWnc/instructional-design-journey-of.htmlblades@cop.ufl.edu (Scott Blades, M.Ed.)0<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/theprescription/~4/DuYpL2gCWnc" height="1" width="1"/>http://ufprescription.blogspot.com/2008/03/instructional-design-journey-of.htmlen-usScott Blades, M.Ed.nonadultFormulas for Success in Teaching and Learning
