Online Courses
The courses are developed in Canvas (LMS). I collaborate with faculty to determine the structure and organization of the course and determine the theme and design. Then I design the website, test the usability, and build the course in the Canvas.
Role in the project: Instructional designer
The faculty wanted to use characterization to foster engagement and motivation. With the purpose of the character, I determined and created an Instructional Technology (IT) Hero and applied it throughout the course.
The IT Hero was used to introduce the course, and provide a learning map and achievement markers. It was also used in lectures to allow students to interact with the content.
