We shall take the simpleminded view that a theory is just amodel of the universe, or a restricted part of it, and a set ofrules that relate quantities in the model to observations that wemake. It exists only in our minds and does not have any otherreality (whatever that might mean). A theory is a good theory if itsatisfies two requirements. It must accurately describe a largeclass of observations on the basis of a model that contains only afew arbitrary elements, and it must make definite predictions aboutthe results of future observations.

This does not mean that theoriesare just fleeting thoughts, since they are comprised of a specificmodel of how things work and rules that associate model attributesto what we observe in the universe. |

There is a desperate need for theorists and researchers togenerate and refine a new breed of learning-focused instructionaldesign theories that help educators and trainers to meet thoseneeds, (i.e., that focus on learning and that foster development ofinitiative, teamwork, thinking skills, and diversity). The healthof instructional-design theory also depends on its ability toinvolve stakeholders in the design process. Reference 1:

| Driscoll (2000) defines instruction broadly as \"any deliberatearrangement of events to facilitate a learner's acquisition of somegoal\" (p. 25). In order to increase the effectiveness ofinstruction, there is a critical need for the creation andrefinement of instructional design theories to aid those who seekto promote learning.

The philosophical position known as constructivism viewsknowledge as a human construction. The various perspectives withinconstructivism are based on the premise that knowledge is not partof an objective, external reality that is separate from theindividual. Instead, human knowledge, whether the bodies of contentin public disciplines (such as mathematics or sociology) orknowledge of the individual learner, is a human construction. References:

Pei is popularly known for the controversy surrounding his GrandLouvre Pyramid (1988), constructed in the courtyard of the Louvre(fig. 25.21). The Pyramid deliberately turns the tradition andconcept of pyramid inside out.

As a further example, APT queries and their results may be usedto form rules for expert systems that become part of an intelligentcomputer-based instructional system. Such a system theoreticallycan optimize student learning by recommending instructionalsequences (i.e., temporal patterns) that have high probabilities ofresulting in student mastery. In other words, APT-based decisionmaking by a computer program can provide an empirical foundationfor artificial intelligence. References:
Frick, T. W. (1990). Analysis of patterns in time: A method ofrecording and quantifying temporal relations in education.American Educational Research Journal, 27(1), 180-204. | One way that learning can be personalized is through the use ofcomputers to aid in \"recommending instructional sequences (i.e.,temporal patterns) that have high probabilities of resulting instudent mastery\" (Frick, 1990, p. 202). However, the ability forcomputers to make appropriate decisions about instructionalstrategies is limited, in part, by the quality of information theyhave access to. References:
