Job Search

I started this search thinking that it would be very easy. I was wrong. There are thousands of jobs in this field. I saw several that I was interested in, many of which require a doctorate degree. I found a job in Hawaii unfortunately; my family wants to visit, but is not interested in moving. After hours of searching I found a job that I would like to apply for. I found a job through the following site: Indiana University Bloomington

They applicant must explore and support the use of instructional design theory, instructional technology, technology tools, and media to enhance learning and interaction.
