As technology continues to impact how faculty members teach, it becomes important to continually update our views and perspectives on the teaching and the learning experience. Fundamentally, learning is an interactive experience, and instructors are the designers of that experience. Like other types of interactions, the experience is based on who is engaged, what is being presented, and how it is presented. Interactive Teaching Design (ITD) is a conceptual framework that combines key elements from teaching and learning with principles from interaction design. It can be applied universally, but it is especially useful for designing learning experiences facilitated using online environments.
