What is Instructional Design?
Instructional Design is when someone makes fun and easy ways for others to learn. Just like how a teacher or parent helps you understand something step by step, Instructional Design is like making a special plan to help people learn new things.
Training methods often need to catch up in today's fast-paced workplace, leaving employees overwhelmed and disengaged.
That's where I come in!
By crafting fun and interactive learning experiences, I help you revolutionize your training and onboarding process by creatively approaching instructional design.

My Instructional Design Approach
I believe in the power of collaboration to create engaging and thoughtful eLearning experiences. As an extension of your team, I immerse myself in your vision and goals and work closely with you to develop an eLearning solution that reflects your organization and needs and exceeds your expectations.
-
I divide this process in two ways. I conduct research, gather information, and create a project plan during the discovery process. I organize and structure the instructional content and course features during the architecture phase.
-
Next, I begin creating visual representations that outline each subsection's course layout and structure. Once the outline is approved, I focus on the visual aspect of the course.
-
Concurrently with the visual design phase, content creation and development begin.
-
During this phase, a final review is performed, and testing is concluded, which includes checking links, forms, page loading speed, and overall performance. Once the course passes testing and approval, it is ready for launch.
-
Once the course has launched and at least two rounds of offerings are completed, all course contributors come together to evaluate the success of the material and overall learning and teaching experience.
-
After the course is live, I provide ongoing support and maintenance, including meeting with contributors as needed to edit and update course materials.
