Hi, I’m Alexis.
I’m an Instructional Designer and Training Specialist with a passion for inclusive design.
What do you want your learners to be able to do?
This is the first and most important question to ask when starting on any Instructional Design project. In order to produce the best outcomes for your organization, any training we create should aim to reach specific learning outcomes.
So once we know what we want people to learn, how do we teach them? Through research-based Instructional Design!
Research-Based Instructional Design
Universal Design for Learning
I approach all projects with the framework of Universal Design for Learning to create an equitable experience for all learners. When equity and inclusivity is at the forefront of a design, all users benefit. In action, this could mean thoughtful use of colors and fonts for legibility or surveying users to learn what accommodations they may need.
I recently earned my Master’s Degree in Instructional Design and Technology at California State University, Fullerton. I use best practices in Instructional Design supported by current ID peer-reviewed research.
Iterative
No project is perfect in its first iteration, so I use ADDIE and SAM to collaborate with stakeholders and create the best product possible.
