Expanding Horizons
The learning experiences presented here were thoughtfully designed within the Articulate 360 platform. These courses can be utilized to function as a standalone product for individuals seeking to broaden their knowledge and skills, or as a part of a comprehensive course of instruction. This catalog is growing as I continue to hone my skills within the Articulate 360 platform.

This Rise 360 course showcases my skills to create branching scenarios in a soft skill subject matter, ensuring the learner will complete this microlearning course and truly meet the objectives.
Project Case Studies
-
Situation: Managing scope is critical in instructional design, yet learning designers often lack formal project management training. Without a well-defined scope, projects risk scope creep and stakeholder misalignment.
Task: My goal was to demonstrate the overlap between Project Management (PM) skills and Learning Design, specifically focusing on how scope statements impact project success.
Action: I built a Rise 360 course that introduced PMBOK standards to designers. The course moved beyond theory by including practical exercises where learners critiqued real-world scope statements.
Result: The project successfully bridged the gap between the two disciplines, providing learners with a practical framework to manage stakeholders and define project boundaries effectively.re
-
Situation: The Navy Education and Training Command (NETC) introduced a new doctrine called PALS. Simply issuing the handbook was insufficient to ensure instructors truly understood or embraced the change.
Task: I needed to train my team of instructors and curriculum managers on the first PALS principle to ensure valid implementation of the new doctrine.
Action: I developed a multi-modal training solution, including an interactive Articulate Storyline module and a supporting Google Slide presentation, to explore the "why" behind the doctrine.
Result: This approach exceeded the basic training requirement. It replaced passive reading with active engagement, ensuring the team was not just aware of the new standards but competent in applying them.
