The increased use of advanced technology as an educational tool is not a trend. It is a fact of life.

The question then becomes how can we best capture the potential for these interactive learning tools to improve the quality of education.

This is the focus of Western Illinois University's Master of Science program in Instructional Design and Technology (IDT).

To provide educators with the ideas, strategies and technical skills to utilize instructional technology to its greatest advantage.

A master's degree in Instructional Design and Technology can make a tremendous difference in your career, equipping you with new skills to use in the classroom and opening up opportunities for promotion and advancement.

Yet as a working professional, it is essential for a graduate program to accommodate your ongoing professional and personal responsibilities. So we have designed the IDT program to fit into your schedule. With evening and weekend classes and distance instruction delivered via interactive satellite, compressed video and the Internet, the program provides you with the flexibility you need so that you can continue to meet all your commitments.
