International Society for Design and Development in Education explained

The International Society for Design and Development in Education (ISDDE) was formed in 2005 with the goal of improving educational design in mathematics and science education around the world.[1] Educational design has been an invisible topic relative to educational research, and there has been very little direct attention focused on design principles and design processes in educational design.[2]

Society goals

This international society, focused on mathematics and science education for strategic reasons, has the following main goals:

Governance

The society is run by an Executive of approximately 12 members. Three officers have particular duties (such as appointing local chairs of the annual conference, organizing the prize process, recruiting and reviewing new Fellows and members, and directing the journal).

Chairs History

Additional details on society governance are described in the society's constitution.[3]

ISDDE Journal

Starting in 2008, the society developed an open access Electronic journal, called the Educational Designer, with roughly annual issues. The editor-in-chief is Kaye Stacey from the University of Melbourne. As an online-only journal, it has the advantage of being able to provide detailed worked examples for other designers.

Prizes for Excellence in Design for Education, the "Eddies"

Starting in 2008, ISDDE supports a US$10,000 prize for excellence in educational design, known as the "Eddies". The prize alternates across years between rewarding particular designs and rewarding lifetime contributions to educational design.
