Trust
I have been slightly moving away from my favourite topic - relationship. I am back with a short story. I believe TRUST is the main factor that keeps a relationship going, especially in between couples who live miles away from eachother. But that is completely a different TRUST. Here is a short story that talks about the TRUST from a different angle.
A little girl and her father were crossing a flimsy bridge. The father was kind of scared so he asked his little daughter, "Sweetheart, please holdmy hand so that you don't fall into the river."
The little girl said, "No, Dad. You hold my hand.""What's the difference?" asked the puzzled father.
"There's a big difference," replied the little girl. "If I hold your hand and something happens to me, chances are that I may let your hand go. Butif you hold my hand, I know for sure that no matter what happens, you will never let my hand go."
In any relationship, the essence of trust is not in its bind but in its bond. So hold the hand of the person whom you love rather than expecting them to hold yours...

Me as an Instructional Designer
My previous blog would have given you a rough idea of what Instructional Designing is. What is my part in that.
The content will be provided by the clients in the form of Word documents PowerPoint presentations. Sometimes clients give content junks. First step is to analyse the content. The content is split into logical junks or modules (Technically these are called SCOs - Sharable Courseware Objects. Previously it was called RLOs - Reusable Logical Objects). Each module will a name. These modules must be independent and no module should be referred in the other modules. Then the storyboard will be created for the course. Once the storyboard is over, the visualization takes place. Each frame of the course will have relevant images. The storyboard and the images are given to the programmer who integrates the components into a single location. The packaged course is sent for quality check. After fixing the bugs the course is launced or sent to the client.
What I have given is just an outline. Instructional Designing is more creative and it involves lots of learning.
