For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
"And the sky is gray, I've been out for a walk on a winters day..."
Gray, gray, gray is my world. The first 30 hits of Spreadbury's
suggested search engine did not give me what I need, and while Posada's
article was interesting, it was also not what I needed.
Somehow ISD relates to Instructional Design. Somehow, somehow, but how?
I know ISD has implications in how we now create software (as only a
small component of ISD) by a practiced standard (a GUI interface follows
certain protocols, whether it's Open Source or Windows-based; a dialog
box looks a certain way, etc.)
This is kind of what I'm looking for, but in much greater depth for an
interview:
"survey of engineering design methods, principles of ecological design,
the role of human sciences in the design of work domains, organizational
considerations, human-system interactions, human error, methodologies to
assist the design process, ethnographic field studies and empirical
evaluation."

having an ISD panic attack? All that sugar?)
