Coming at Design from a Different Angle: Functional Design

This chapter defines a non-traditional view of the structure of instruc- tional designs that holds implications for the practice of instructional designing: what we call a theory of design layering. We discuss designing in many fields as a backdrop against which we examine this theoretical view of instructional design. We describe our design approach briefly as a set of propositions. Finally we examine the implications of the design layering approach for everyday design practice and the relation of instructional theories to instructional design.
