The design of instruction delivery systems is described as an engineering discipline. Structured learning for individualization of instruction is defined. Instruction delivery applications are identified in formal training and job performance areas. Examples of basic systems design models, delivery methods, instruction delivery units, evaluation methods, cost/value measurements, and empirical data are cited as tools for design implementation. Utility of the concept of structured learning is discussed.
