<p>"Hats off to Drs. Lin and Spector for this wonderful contribution to the ongoing dialogues around two complimentary fields: Learning Sciences and Instructional Design & Technology. This edited text offers significant glimpses into what could be a future of true collaboration, and the framing by Drs. Lin and Spector addresses the fundamental issues around why these two fields haven’t collaborated earlier and how we can overcome those challenges in the future. Well done!"</p><p>—Alison A. Carr-Chellman, Dean, College of Education and Professor, Curriculum & Instruction, University of Idaho, USA</p><p>"Lin and Spector have admirably accomplished their goal of bridging the gap between the communities of the learning sciences, and instructional design and technology. The authors in this volume represent the leading lights in both communities as well as the "middle ground," tackling the tensions inherent to the various perspectives in deeply intellectual and highly practical discussions. The chapters are at once accessible for novices and thought-provoking for experts. It is essential reading for those devoted to improving human learning."</p><p>—Wilhelmina C. Savenye, Professor of Educational Technology, Division of Educational Leadership and Innovation, Arizona State University, USA</p>

There are two distinct professional communities that share an interest in using innovative approaches and emerging technologies to design and implement effective support for learning. This edited collection addresses the growing divide between the learning sciences community and the instructional design and technology community, bringing leading scholars from both fields together in one volume in an attempt to find productive middle ground. Chapters discuss the implications of not bridging this divide, propose possible resolutions, and go on to lay a foundation for continued discourse in this important area.
