Abstract

In this pilot study the collaborative efforts by way of desk-top video conferencing between beginning instructional de-signers and intern teachers was investigated. The impact of a real-world context for designing instruction on beginning in-structional designers was examined and a unique opportunity for intern teachers to experience the process of instructional design was provided. Data collection consisted of question-naires, journals, and observations. These two groups, with similar missions, rarely have the opportunity to work togeth-er face-to-face because of time and space constraints. The cooperative venture designed provided a first step in deter-mining whether virtual collaboration through desktop video conferencing provided an effective means for enabling such an experience. Results suggest that, despite severe communi-cative and interactive limitations due to technical deficien-cies, participants value the process and developed profes-sionally as a result.
