Ongoing Scholarly Research:
Learning Through Visualization
Originally presented at an international conference and published in a scholarly journal, this research has attracted more than 10,000 readers and has been cited in over 100 publications. Grounded in the conceptual frameworks of the Programmed Brain and the Learning Chain, it explores how visualization can strengthen comprehension and knowledge retention.
Dr. Aisami continues to expand this research by examining how visual structures, emerging digital technologies, and instructional design can help learners organize, process, and retain knowledge.
FOUNDATIONAL RESERACH PUBLICATION
The 5D Model and Online Learning
Dr. Riad S. Aisami’s scholarly work brings together instructional design, online teaching, evaluation, and learning through visualization. This page traces the development of the 5D Model and highlights ongoing research into how visual structures can strengthen learning, comprehension, and knowledge retention.
The 5D Model for Planning, Teaching, and Evaluating Online Courses
The 5D Model—Define, Design, Develop, Deliver, and Determine—was first published as an encyclopedia chapter in 2005 and was subsequently expanded in a resource book published by IGI Global in 2020. It provides a systematic framework for planning, teaching, and evaluating effective online courses.
