چکیده

This paper critically examines the current state of research on the use of instructional design and development (IDD) procedures to develop work-related training that is inclusive of all age groups. The approach included a Best Evidence Synthesis of books, academic journals, and conference proceedings in the fields of instructional design and technology, training development, and human resource management published since 2000. The review reveals a focus on age-related generalizations about cognition and learning capacity as the basis for design decisions. However, the role of training context and content is unclear, limiting generalizations about design and training effectiveness. Implications for professionals charged with developing and implementing effective training strategies for an increasingly multigenerational workforce are discussed, along with review limitations and opportunities for further research.
