B.F. Skinner Behaviorism & Operant Conditioning
B. F. Skinner’s theory is based on operant conditioning. The organism is in the process of “operating” on the environment, which in ordinary terms means it is bouncing around its world, doing what it does. During this “operating,” the organism encounters a special kind of stimulus, called a reinforcing stimulus, or simply a reinforcer. -

Preparing Objectives for Programmed Instruction
Robert Mager figured out the importance to teach educators how to write objectives. -
Criterion-reference Tests
acquired the behaviors an instructional program was designed to teach. The use of
criterion-referenced tests for these two purposes is a central
feature of instructional design procedures. Reiser, Robert V.; Dempsey, John V. (2011-03-14). Trends and Issues in Instructional Design and Technology (3rd Edition) (Page 24). Pearson HE, Inc.. Kindle Edition. -
Formative and Summative Evaluation
Michael Scriven coined the phrases formative and summative evaluation to describe the analysis methods used prior to instruciton and after instruction. -
Formative Evalutation
Susan Markle (1967)
decried a lack of rigor in testing processes. In light of this
problem, Markle prescribed detailed procedures for evaluating materials both during and after the design process.
These procedures are much like the formative and summative evaluation techniques generally prescribed today. Reiser, Robert V.; Dempsey, John V. (2011-03-14). Trends and Issues in Instructional Design and Technology (3rd Edition) (Page 25). Pearson HE, Inc.. Kindle Edition. -

Authentic Teaching (Real World Environment)
Which learners will be using the
skills they are learning—has had an effect on how instructional design is being practiced and taught. Reiser, Robert V.; Dempsey, John V. (2011-03-14). Trends and Issues in Instructional Design and Technology (3rd Edition) (Page 26). Pearson HE, Inc.. Kindle Edition. -

Dot-Com
Due to the rise of commercial growth of the Internet, venture capitalists saw record-setting growth as dot-com companies experienced meteoric rises in their stock prices and therefore moved faster and with less caution than usual, choosing to mitigate the risk by starting many contenders and letting the market decide which would succeed.
