Khan, Badrul H. (2004, September-October). The people-process-product continuing in e-learning: The E-Learning P3 Model. Educational Technology, 44 (5), 33-40.
I found this article very interesting as I will begin a new career on Monday the 15th as an e-Learning Design Specialist. I am a visual learner and the chart of the 3P Model explained how to move from planning to delivery in simple terms, that is, until I found Table 1 listing the roles and responsibilities in e-learning.
In the article, Khan points out that "Based on the size and scope of the project, the number of individuals involved in various stages of an e-learning project may vary." It never dawned on me that there would be so many people involved in designing an e-Learning course, especially when we designed one last Spring. That really made me feel good about last term! Khan actually defined my project as a "small-size e-learning project since I was, in essence, the content expert, instructional designer, programmer, graphic artist (for the most part), project manager, etc. Way to go members of 5680! Who woulda thunk?

Congrats and good luck on the new career! Will you still be involved with the Girl Scouts? It surprised me to read too about how many people can be involved in eLearning Design after having done a project like last semester! I guess that builds a little confidence huh?
Good observation about the article and your personal experience in developing a course. Many "large" elearning projects also involve only a few individuals-with lots of roles to play!
Hi Marilyn--
I noticed that you are a visual learner. I just took one of those assessment tests, and learned that I am as well. No wonder we looked at the article in the same way!
