What's the difference between instructional design (ID) and learning experience design (LXD)? It's the emotion, Clark Quinn says in this brief take. "It's the engagement part that separates the two," he writes. In LXD, "we need to manage emotions through out the experience. We want to do (things) like keep challenge balanced, anxiety low enough not to interfere, build confidence, etc." In other words, "what we're focusing on is making it a true 'experience', not just an instructional event. Ideally, we'd like (it) to be transformational."
