To  achieve their teaching role, Bell and Shank expect academic librarians to have  knowledge of learning theories and strategies to ensure quality instruction.  by taking an instructional problem and going  through an analysis that has several well-defined steps, and the outcome is a  learning activity or instructional product (DeBlois 2005). Instructional  designers are frequently called on to help faculty develop new programs or  courses from scratch. Faculty are the subject matter experts, but the  instructional designer is the expert at organizing the curriculum in a way that  achieves the best pedagogical outcomes. Instructional technologists work almost  exclusively with technology solutions or advise faculty when technology may not  be the solution. By contrast, instructional designers focus on the pedagogy  rather than the technology. Their focus is on identifying learning gaps,  understanding the problems that stand between learners and what they need to  master, and identifying the products or strategies that will enable students to  achieve academic success. In many cases, this means helping faculty with  pedagogical methods that involve no technology at all.
