Chosen Theme: Designing Comprehensive Learning Resources
Welcome to a hands-on journey into designing comprehensive learning resources that truly change performance, not just pass tests. Explore frameworks, stories, and practical tools, and subscribe to stay inspired by weekly techniques and field-tested templates.
Start With Rigorous Needs Analysis
Bring data to life with learner interviews, surveys, and performance logs. Draft personas that capture motivations, constraints, tech access, and prior knowledge. Share your persona questions in the comments and subscribe for new research worksheets.
Start With Rigorous Needs Analysis
Shift conversations from topics to behaviors. Write outcomes that specify conditions, criteria, and standards for success. Post one outcome you are wrestling with, and we will suggest refinements in an upcoming newsletter edition.
Architect a Coherent Curriculum
Use a simple matrix linking outcomes to authentic assessments and learning activities. Spot gaps and redundancies fast. Share a screenshot of your map and we will feature clever layouts in our next roundup.
Design Multi-Modal Learning Assets
Use demonstrations for procedures, case stories for judgment, simulations for complex decisions, and visuals for systems. Share one objective and we will recommend a medium in the next community mailer.
Favor concise narration with focused visuals, trim extraneous decoration, and segment content into controllable chunks. Drop a before and after slide in the comments, and learn from peer redesigns.
Wrap concepts in relatable narratives with stakes, characters, and resolution. A nurse once told us a patient story turned a protocol into a promise. Share your best instructional story and inspire others.
Accessibility, Inclusion, and Belonging
Offer multiple means of engagement, representation, and action. Provide choices without sacrificing rigor. Comment with one barrier you removed recently, and help others strengthen inclusive practice.
Technology, Tooling, and Interoperability
Compare feature fit, accessibility, data portability, cost, and support. Prioritize must-haves tied to outcomes. Share your matrix template and subscribe for our sample scorecards and criteria lists.
Implementation, Support, and Sustainability
Align timelines, comms, and training so adoption feels natural. Use champions and pilot groups. Share your best rollout tactic, and subscribe for our launch communication templates.
