What We Can Learn About Instructional Design from Post-It Notes – An Interesting Read

Tom Kuhlmann has again come up with an interesting post. This time it is on Cheat Sheets.

Some days back I had written a post on Cheat Sheets too.

I love creating Cheat Sheets. They are simple, easy to create and too useful.

I create Cheat Sheets in XML format.

Here is a sample template. Please note the words in italics are a hint as to what you must write in the space between respective xml tags.

<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?>
<cheatsheet title=”
Title of the Tutorial“>
<intro>
<description>
Brief introduction to the tutorial and the list of tasks forwhich the procedure will be given.
</description>
</intro>
<item title=”
Task 1“>
<description>List of steps to complete the task.
</description>
</item>
<item title=”
Task 2“>
<description>
List of steps to complete the task.
</description>
</item>
<item title=”
Task 3“>
<description>
List of steps to complete the task.
</description>
</item>
</cheatsheet>
