Dear Colleagues,

I hope you and your coworkers and friends and families are all safe and 
healthy.

I am again teaching INFO250 Design and Implementation of Instructional 
Strategies for Information Professionals for San Jose State University, 
School of Information (SJSU iSchool) for Summer 2020 (June 1 - August 7) 
AND Fall 2020 (August 19 - December 7)

Thank you again all for your good projects and participation in my 
courses over the past two decades.  I hope that some of you who 
participated in the past will want to participate again this year.

I offer students the option to work with a 'client' to design a unit of 
instruction (workshop, tutorial, short course, etc.) for online or 
face-to-face.  In the past students have decided on their own units of 
instruction for their instructional design projects, and many will still 
do that.

My students are all working through an online Masters' Degree program. 
Some of them have extensive instruction experience and some are complete 
beginners.

If your unit of instruction/instructional design project is chosen, my 
students will provide you with a completed instructional design plan, a 
screen cast introducing the instructional design plan, and at least one 
example instructional material.  You may choose to make use of their 
work in future as you choose.

I cannot guarantee that any of my students will choose your projects. 
Also, it is possible we could take on some larger scale projects, the 
students may form teams to work on them.

Students may also choose the library they currently work in or a 
non-profit organization known to them to work with. So, if you would 
like to be on the list of projects for my students to consider please 
email me with the following information:

If you are interested in having my students work with you on a project, 
please give me the following information:

1. Contact person(s) with email and telephone numbers
Contact person shouldbe the 'client' that students are expected to 
interview and interact with cooperatively to develop an initial needs 
assessment and user identification and then work through our formal 
instructional design plan*. Then design and deliver an instructional 
design plan, introductory screencast, and example instructional material 
to the contact person.

2. Brief description of what kind and topic of instruction you're 
interested in working on.

3. A commitment by the contact person(s) to be available by email or 
other form of online messaging, during the Summer and/or Fall 2020 
semesters to work with my students. Availability of a contact person is 
critical.

I will respond to you with additional questions and/or whether your 
project fits our scope in terms of time and expertise of students and 
verify you want to be on the list.

Thank you!
