Instructional Design Process
Thorough planning shows in the end product. I love using “backward
design” maps as part of the ADDIE process. Careful mapping and
storyboarding help to keep all facets of learning design aligned with
the learning objectives.

Introduction - Course Objectives - 3
Narration script (if applicable):
Welcome! For instructional designers, an understanding of learning theory can make your designs stronger. This e-learning module discusses some of the basics of multiliteracies learning theory. [1] In this course, we’ll talk about the “new literacy” – what it is and how it’s different from traditional literacy. [2] We’ll explore multimodal design, which is a big part of multiliteracies theory. Multimodal design can help make your work even more effective and engaging in infinite ways. [3] Finally, we’ll look at why multiliteracies theory should matter to you as a designer. The world is changing, so let’s get started!

Literacy Paradigms – Introduce Multiliteracies - 8
Narration script (if applicable):
In 1996, a group of scholars got together to re-examine literacy from a modern perspective. They explored society’s changing views on citizenship, business, and community. They saw that multiple philosophiesgovern our business and social lives. Multiple technologies are ever-present, demanding multiple kinds of communication skills. Many people navigate multiple languages on a daily basis, including work languages, home languages, technical and computer languages and more. Individuals are members of multiple communities requiring multiple identity positions. They concluded that success requires much more than the ability to read and write. The term multiliteracies was coined to reflect a new kind of literacy.

E-Learning Module Face-to-Face Instruction
I have worked on numerous courses
in the utility industry. The following
excerpts are from a course on
pressure testing, authored in
Lectora 16.
I have designed and delivered
instruction in multiple content areas
for both adults and children. These
excerpts are from a unit for secondary
school students.
Sample Courses

E-Learning Module
This course was designed for a utilities trade association. My
responsibilities included…
Clarifying and honing objectives
Writing new content
Combining, revising, and updating old content
Adding graphics and spatial supports
Building and modifying interactions
Working within a very specific (and very picky!) template
Using a formal instructional tone per company style
Fact checking and collaborating with SMEs as needed
Note: Background design is highly templated and not my work.
All proprietary information is blurred.
Course objectives were designed to support industry standards and very specific compliance testing content requirements.
Module Introduction Page
Audio Text ScriptClass locations are based on population density. There are four classes ranging from Class 1, a rural environment, to Class 4, a densely populated environment. Class is determined by counting habitable buildings within 660 feet of a given pipeline. Class is one of the factors which determines pressure testing requirements.
Graphics reinforce content and are clickable to provide further information.

TEST FACTORS: The next 3 pages show a tabbed interaction scaffolding the calculation of test factors. Page text is kept minimal with audio supporting it.
AUDIO TEXT SCRIPT
Test requirements for certain pipelines are determined by
making calculations based on the class location of the pipeline
and associated test factors. This results in a pressure test that is
higher than the pipeline’s intended MAOP.
FACTORS TAB AUDIO TEXT SCRIPT
In order to determine the appropriate test fact, you must know the date of installation for
the pipe, as well as its associated class location. For example, if a Class 3 pipe was
installed in 1969, according to the reference chart, it would have a test factor of 1.4
EXAMPLES TAB AUDIO TEXT SCRIPT
To calculate test pressure, multiply the MAOP times the appropriate test factor. The
result is the recommended testing pressure. For example, testing pressure for a pipe
with an MAOP of 80 pounds per square inch, a class location of 2, and an
installation date of 1969 would be calculated by taking 80 psi time the test factor of
1.25 for a testing pressure of 100 psi. Click the icon to practice.
Module summaries with clickable images reiterate important concepts and connect back to the learning objectives and forward to the industry compliance assessment.

MODULE SUMMARY
The House on Mango Street Unit
This unit was designed for secondary school language learners. Based on The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros, the book was used as the basis for applying new learning about strategic questioning and figurative language. What follows are a few of the learning resources designed for the unit. Due to the K12 context, development was simple and functional.

Backward Design Plan
Frequent comprehension checks
and guided reading activities are
important parts of learning design
at all levels and in all contexts.
Strategic questioning was taught via unit content. Instructional materials guided learners from Knowledge to Evaluation in the learning process and included…

Application & Evaluation
Figurative language was also a theme throughout the unit…
All learning is reinforced and practiced in…
Assignments
Informal Comprehension Checks

Other kinds of writing…
This is the miscellaneous section! In addition to
instructional design, I love putting together
educational supports, job aids, newsletters, blogs…
I have also worked on many departmental reports,
procedures manuals, grant applications, academic
articles, theses, and much more.
Please page through to see a few odds and ends. Be
sure to email me with any questions.
Graphic OrganizersIn communicating content, spatial design has a grammar of its own. Strategic use of space can often say much more than words alone. Going graphic makes almost any concept more accessible.
This job aid was designed as a guide for moving through the ADDIE process.
Newsletters
This is the front page of one of a series of weekly educational newsletters I created as part of ongoing staff development.
Thank you…
This is just a sample of my
work. If there is something
you’d like to see more of,
please let me know. Thanks
so much for looking!
