My Instructional Design Philosophy
-
A strong instructional designer is, first and foremost, a strong listener. In an age where we are bombarded with an excess of information but have little time to sift through the noise, adapting to learners’ needs is essential.
-
That’s where an ID steps in—to distill the necessary information, identify the right training medium, and deliver it in a creative, engaging way. For adult learners, this almost always means incorporating multiple forms of active engagement.
-
This is what excites me about instructional design in the tech age: experimenting with diverse channels and methodologies to create meaningful learning experiences. As a perpetually curious person, I also love collaborating with Subject Matter Experts from different industries. It’s a privilege to see the world through so many unique, highly polished keyholes.
I may be hired by companies, but I work for the learners.
