A session with Archie Ezekiel for the ASP Community.
We often design learning to help people understand a subject, remember information, or follow a process. But what happens when people are working in complex systems that keep changing?
In sustainability and regenerative practice, there is rarely a single correct answer. People must make decisions with incomplete information, respond to feedback, adapt to changing conditions, and learn from what happens next.
This raises a different question about learning: how should learning be designed when the goal is not simply knowledge transfer but adaptive capability?
In this session, Shayne “Archie” Ezekiel will introduce Regenerative Instructional Design (RID), an emerging body of work exploring how learning can support people working within real-world, changing systems.
Archie will explore the difference between knowing something and being able to use it in practice and what changes when learning is designed around context, meaningful constraints, decision-making, feedback, and adaptation.
The session will include a practical example from regenerative practice and consider what a more regenerative approach to learning might look
like.
RID is still being developed and tested, so the session will also create space to question the ideas, explore where they may be useful, and consider what still needs to be worked out.
The session will conclude with an open discussion and Q&A with the ASP community.
About Archie:
Shayne “Archie” Ezekiel is an instructional designer and creator of Regenerative Instructional Design (RID), an emerging body of work exploring how learning can build capability through real-world application, feedback, and adaptation.
Over the past decade, Archie has designed and delivered learning experiences for more than 400 international learners representing over 20 nationalities. His work brings together instructional design, digital learning systems, and climate and sustainability learning.
Alongside his instructional design work, Archie runs a regenerative and permaculture farm in rural Spain, where working with living systems has shaped his approach to observation, feedback, iteration, and continuous improvement.
He is also a father, and his work is grounded in a long-term commitment to building something useful, responsible, and worth passing on.
