In a past life I developed educational curricula both in print,
online, and using cdroms and laser discs. At that time instructional
design had almost nothing to do with interaction design, besides the
unfortunate use of "ID" as a self-ascribed moniker -- one shared also
with Industrial Design.
Instructional design takes the idea that there are steps, sequences,
dependencies (learn this before trying that), hierarchies (of
concepts, of learning), examples, and much more in the process of
learning -- and therefore in the process of teaching. That in the
design of content used in teaching, the "design" of pedagogical
materials should reflect a cogent methodology and approach. One that
reflects a pedagogical framework (critical thinking, multiple
perspectives, pro-social), educational discipline (science, math,
etc), and which facilitates use of the educational materials used.

Hi Byran :-),
I have never heard the phrase or title "Instructional Design"
before today. But from a quick glance, it looks like the difference
maybe the perspective. Instructional Design maybe looking at it from
a perspective of how well the person will learn or understand
something, and how to train a person. Where as interaction design is
about the intuitiveness of something and how easy is it to use
without any instructions.
