Dr. Stafford has an innate ability to consistently take the students deeper with supplemental comments, questions, and relevant material that serves immensely in reinforcing ones understanding of the content. His leadership has been most instrumental in me acquiring the maximum benefit from this course. I found myself consistently anticipating his insight/perspective.

I just finished listening to the first ID Confidential podcast episode and I am so excited. We need more innovative approaches to empower us to create better coursework for our students, employees and stakeholders. I am excited to make this one of my favorite podcasts.

Dr. Stafford has this gift of being able to make the most complex things simple. His ideas about the quadrants of instructional design success are simple, yet brilliant and I have downloaded his infographics and shared them with my staff and stakeholders. I am excited to hear (and steal) more from him. LOL!

Dr. Stafford (Tim) brings a whole new and fresh approach to anything he is involved. He is creative but doesn't let his creativity keep him from delivering on time and budget. He brings deep expertise in applying technology tools to streamline the delivery process of a project. He manages and works well with teams making everyone always feeling a valuable member. Over the ten years, I have worked with Tim; he has shown to be a consummate professional and recommend him highly.

For over a decade I have worked with Tim in various capacities. Tim is able to connect dots that are difficult for some, provide leadership and project direction, and produce at a consistently high level. Tim quickly grasps the needs of the client, whether they be internal or external, and is able to design a solution to fit. Above all Tim is a producer. He can guide design projects of various types through all stages of the deliverable; ensuring the end desire is achieved.

Tim has the profound ability to oversee multiple projects coming in from different departments from both a creative and production standpoint. He is without a doubt earned my utmost professional and personal respect through his consistent demonstration of reliable character and solid credentials in a variety of work situations. His deep and broad knowledge in a number of fields (ranging from education, to image building, to marketing and journalism, to instructional design) allows him to be a valuable resource in diverse ways.

First let me say, that Tim is a top-notch professional. He knows his stuff well He agreed to serve on a team that provided leadership and guidance to our efforts in converting our programs to a fully online instructional design, and led our efforts with his "masterful" knowledge of project management. All tasks were completed "on time or way in advance" with his guidance. His extensive expertise, with course development, the course quality review process, and instructional design was critical to our work ! I could always call on him to assist with anything on the agenda. He was always quite helpful, and willing to serve. Any organization/institution would be quite fortunate to have Tim on their team! I for one, will take every opportunity to have us work together again!

Dr. Tim Stafford is a champion for best-practice instructional strategies. He and I promote M. David Merrill's First Principles of Instruction, which is a task-centered approach to teaching and learning. He has interviewed me as part of his podcast, has completed my 5-Star Instructional Design Certification Program, and has arranged for me to be an adjunct faculty member at St. Thomas University, so we can promote 5-Star Instruction throughout the university, as well as to businesses through an extension program. His vision, and relentless effort to promote quality instruction are unequaled.

Dr. Stafford is an awesome teacher! He went above and beyond to help us connect what we were learning into our own classrooms/schools and even gave us additional resources to help as well. He was a great model of the use of technology which I believe encouraged our deeper use of technology. I would consider his enthusiasm and knowledge about the topics to be a huge strength to this class!

I really loved this course! I am very interested in technology and how impactful it is to our daily lives. Dr. Stafford introduced new concepts that I have heard of, but without his instruction, I may have never tried. Whether I use it in the future (blogs, podcasts, wikis) or not remains to be seen, but I am walking away with more options to enhance my leadership than when I started this course.
