Moving ID to LXD, with Clark Quinn

In this episode of the L&D Go Beyond podcast, Amit Garg, Founder and CEO of Upside Learning Solutions speaks with Clark Quinn, Executive Director, Quinnovation on 𝙈𝙤𝙫𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙄𝘿 𝙩𝙤 𝙇𝙓𝘿.

Though Clark needs no formal introduction if you’ve been in the L&D space, this is for those not yet in the know. Clark is an internationally renowned consultant, speaker, and author. He provides strategic learning technology solutions to different types of organizations. Clark was eLearning Guild's first Guild Master in 2012.

Recalling his first job, designing and programming educational computer games, he observed a major miss in instructional design – the ‘emotional component’. Clark says that integrating the emotional component is necessary for an effective and engaging learning experience. He wanted something that talks about a bit more semantically meaningful and emotional. Those are the elements that are missing currently, and according to him, if we do it right, we can get the learning impact right.

Here are the key takeaways from this podcast-

- Why too much instructional design stuff has become a knowledge dump
- Identifying performance objectives and addressing the root cause for building an engaging experience
- Integrating an emotional component throughout for an engaging and effective learning experience
- Stepping up from experience-led learning to transformational learning
- Switching focus towards practice from content
