I’ve found a great podcast that should be right up everyone’s alley. It’s called Wireframe which is co-created by Gimlet Media and Adobe. It’s less to do with eLearning and more to do with what you traditionally think about interaction and interface design. I believe there are many episodes in the series that cross over into our world of eLearning.

Here’s the trailer for the series.

Here are a couple of the standout episodes for me.
Good Design is Good Civics
Where the hosts discuss the City of Boston’s app for reporting problems through the use of an app and the challenges of producing an app that is intuitive and easy to use and understand.

Inclusivity is a Recipe for Good Design
In this episode, the hosts talk about closed captions and Xbox controllers and what they teach us about accessibility. I believe this is something we as eLearning designers need to think long and hard about and consider talking with the experts, the ones who need inclusive design.

Thanks for the suggestion, Paul. I listened to the whole series.My favorite quote from the “Good Design is ” episode is from Marcel Danesi, University of Toronto. He says, “Simplicity is one of the first laws of communicative change.”
That’s a good one.
