My Instructional Design Philosophy

I believe every instructional design process includes:

-a deep understanding of adult pedagogy

(I’ve been an educator/learner my entire life with degrees and credentials from 3 different colleges, and certifications up the wazoo. I’ve spent a grand total of one year out of a classroom since I entered Montessori at 2 to train and educate people on Apple Products and learn how to found a startup. Plus… according to UCLA, I’m a Master of Education!)

-in-depth learning analysis;

(Who are the learners, What can they do now & What do they need to be able to do?)

-intentional and focused learning activities that don’t put you to sleep

(I want the knowledge gained to be sticky, not just in one ear and out the other)

-meticulous growth in instructional content through evaluation and data

(How do I know anybody learned anything? Were the training sessions useful or did the learners do the bare minimum to pass the test or certification and never think about the information again?
