Learning Design Work
Academic & Professional Learning Design Portfolio
A collection of my instructional design work from my Master's program and professional projects. Each artifact demonstrates my approach to creating learning experiences aligned to measurable outcomes.
Instructional Design Portfolio
Academic projects that demonstrate my philosophy of "opening doors to learning"
These projects represent my formal academic and professional work in learning design and technology. Each artifact includes context on the problem it addresses, design constraints, the solution, and learning outcomes.
For examples of how I apply learning design principles to real-world tools and systems, see my Projects page.
eLearning Prototype: Recognizing and Responding to Confusion
I created this comprehensive eLearning experience to help Title I high school students develop metacognitive awareness around academic confusion. The course features interactive scenarios, multimedia assessments, and evidence-based strategies for turning confusion into learning opportunities.
Job Aid: Confusion Recognition Guide
I designed this job aid to provide immediate, actionable guidance when learners need it most. The design prioritizes scannable information architecture and clear visual hierarchy to support quick decision-making in real-world contexts.
eLearning Flowchart: Learning Path Architecture
I developed this flowchart to map the complete learner journey through complex educational content, balancing linear progression with meaningful choice points that support different learning preferences.
Explainer Video: The 4 Signals of Confusion
I created this explainer video to transform complex concepts into accessible, engaging content through strategic use of visual storytelling and narrative structure.
eLearning Style Guide: Visual Design System
I developed this comprehensive style guide to ensure visual consistency across all learning materials, drawing inspiration from calming natural environments to reduce learner anxiety.
