The Failed Instructional Designer Blues (Credit: ChatGPT)
(Verse 1)
I tried to build a module, thought I’d make it right,
Poured my heart in the storyboards, stayed up all night.
But the feedback kept comin’, tore my plan in two,
Now I’m sittin’ here wonderin’, what more I can do.
(Chorus)
Got those failed instructional designer blues,
Lost in the rubrics, can’t find my muse.
Objectives all misaligned, learners confused,
I’m just a teacher with nothin’ to lose.
(Verse 2)
They said my eLearning’s clunky, it ain’t no fun,
The gamification’s broken, no badges won.
The quizzes all missin’, engagement fell flat,
And my stakeholders wonder, “What’s up with that?”
(Chorus)
Got those failed instructional designer blues,
Lost in the rubrics, can’t find my muse.
Objectives all misaligned, learners confused,
I’m just a teacher with nothin’ to lose.
(Bridge)
I tried to scaffold the lessons, make it smooth and clear,
But every step I took just led to fear.
No one clicks the buttons, they don’t watch the slides,
I’m drowning in revisions, my pride took a dive.
(Verse 3)
Now I’m back at the drawing board, tryin’ again,
But it feels like this cycle will never end.
The LMS is crashin’, my spirit’s torn,
I’m the saddest designer that ever was born.
(Final Chorus)
Got those failed instructional designer blues,
Lost in the rubrics, can’t find my muse.
Maybe one day I’ll win, but today I lose,
Singin’ these sad, sad instructional designer blues.
