Information/ Instructional Design




Information/ Instructional Design



IS the design that is viewed for an informative person, mainly used to learn and figure out, usually what’s shown is a set of instructions that tells us what to do. As the instructional design website defines it as “Instructional Design is the process of using our knowledge of "How People Learn" to develop instructional strategies that meet the needs of the learners and the desired learning outcomes.”

Examples of Instructional and information design are as follows.



Flow charts were the simplest and most effective way to portray information and instructions, giving steps and outcomes if steps could not be followed.


Pie charts are one of the easiest read information designs ever made, graph portrayed in the shape of a pie, which is circular, is cut up into sections and given a percentage and a name.



The above is a example of a typographic map a weird but constructive way to inform the audience, colour coding and font changing is a must here, works efficiently cause of its visiual aspects.
