| Abstract: | Instructional design practices consist of design decisions. It often comprises decisions across analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. This paper presents the findings of a scoping review that explored how decision-making is discussed in learning design research over the past four decades. This scoping review of research investigates conceptual papers and empirical studies that discussed decision-making in instructional design and/or educational technology contexts. The sample covers research published over four decades (1990-2023). By gaining an understanding of how decision-making is investigated and discussed in different contexts of educational technology, the field is positioned to support designers in the field as well as throughout their professional development. |
