Two presentations based on these ideas are also available on line.

The first was delivered in Utrecht The Netherlands Feb 17, 2006.  The presentation is available in three parts:

If your organization would like a face-to-face or virtual workshop or talk on related to these ideas please contact me. I would be happy to help your organization adopt first principles of instruction, task-centered instruction, or Pebble-in-the-Pond instructional development to your training needs.
