The Foundation

Learning science first. AI second. Always.

Most "AI for L&D" advice skips the part where you already know something important: how people actually learn. AI4LD starts there - with cognitive load theory, evidence-based design, and performance support frameworks - and builds AI into that foundation.

Learning Matters Context Matters Feedback Drives Performance
  • Cognitive Load Theory applied to AI-enabled experiences
  • Gilbert's BEM and Mager & Pipe performance frameworks
  • Ethical AI grounded in how people actually retain knowledge

What You Own

Practical enough for today.
Grounded enough to last.

AI tools change every six months. Learning science doesn't. AI4LD bundles are designed to remain useful as the technology evolves - because they're rooted in the durable principles of how humans learn.

  • Focused microlearning you can apply immediately
  • Evergreen access - no subscriptions, you own it permanently
  • Expert-guided video series with real L&D scenarios

Agentic AI Design Tools

Interconnected AI Agents and AI Apps to support your design process.

Purpose-built AI agents, AI Learning Agents, and interactive apps that support a systematic instructional design and design research process — with the human designer in the loop at every stage. These agentic tools know the frameworks, speak your language, and deliver guidance grounded in instructional design theory and learning science.

  • Is It a Training Problem? - diagnostic app using Gilbert BEM + Mager & Pipe + CLT
  • LX Evidence Assistant - RAG-powered research synthesis for L&D
  • ILDF 2.0 Agentic Ecosystem - 20 agents across 5 design phases (coming soon)
  • More tools in development - additional AI agents and apps across the full design process
AI Learning Agent - LXD Companion
How do I design a microlearning module that uses AI without overloading the learner?
Great question. Cognitive Load Theory tells us that AI-generated content can increase extraneous load if it's not carefully chunked. Start by identifying the core performance goal using Gilbert's BEM - then let AI generate supporting content only for the germane load...
Ask the AI Learning Agent...

AI should amplify what learning science already knows - not replace it.

A great site and a great concept! I ran the LXD Evidence Assistant App and it works great! It gave me recommendations, measurement plan and references! It made all this work in no time!
