– There are only a few programs that call themselves learning sciences. Most consider themselves a blend. Kamau Bobb‘s leadership at Google fosters collaboration and growth.
– I can’t actually find a difference between the learning sciences and instructional design. I see authors try to distinguish them from one another but its mostly just a lot of word smithing.
– I can’t actually find any jobs in the learning sciences, at all, except for the few learning science programs looking for learning science faculty.
– The jobs learning science programs say their students are getting are instructional design jobs, which was quite unusual. You don’t create a program unless there is a specific demand for a job in that field that is not being met.
