Foundations

eLearning Design for Enterprise Systems

This eLearning module was developed for USA Health to introduce and train employees across the organization on the implementation of CLEAR, a secure identification authentication service. Designed to support a system-wide rollout, the course provides essential instruction through an accessible, click-through format with interactive elements, voice-over narration, and a final knowledge check.

​

This project is included in the Foundations category because it demonstrates the core principles of instructional design and project management in a real-world application. I led the project from concept to delivery, conducting stakeholder consultations with leaders from IT, IT Security, and the Help Desk, creating a detailed design document, and managing the project timeline.

To ensure the instructional quality met learner needs, I collaborated with fellow instructional designers to gather feedback and refine the approach.

​

The module reflects an emerging trend in organizational learning: the need for scalable, user-friendly training on secure digital services. Its inclusion in this category underscores both foundational design competencies and responsiveness to evolving workplace technologies.

Microlearning

In my advanced instructional design class I was given the scenario to create a microlearning for a group of new instructional design students. I decided to take the opportunity to deal with one of my many struggles, the relationship between the subject matter expert (SME) and the instructional designer (ID). Many SMEs need to be taught how to be an effective SME. The one's that get it help the ID create wonderful education. There are others that are not so clear in understanding their role as the SME. They often think they are the ID as well. Clearly defining both roles and determining collaborative strategies addressed the objectives for each course. 

​

I selected this project as microlearning is an emerging trend in instructional technology and design. At first I misunderstood the assignment as one larger course with three modules. As I explored the criteria the definition of what microlearning is became clearer. We were to create three distinct courses that were thematically linked but addressed specific objectives.

 

I allowed myself to get too wrapped up in the scenario that distinctly defined our project as being tight on a budget. This caused me to omit images that could have been helpful to have such as images of a storyboard. If I could rework this assignment, I would add more images for the learner. 

​

The emerging trend of microlearning and management of instructional design projects are two foundational themes that led me to select this project. Additionally, it required the development of instructional materials and the analysis of emerging technologies. I settled on Articulate Rise for my authoring software as its microlearning template is very useful and easy to work with given a short timeline.
