Design thinking is a systematic, iterative, and creative process for solving problems by analyzing, synthesizing and evaluating information to generate ideas and solutions. Instructional Design applies design thinking to instructional programs and learning experiences, and is both an art and a science, balancing creativity and structure.

As an experienced Instructional Designer, E-learning developer, project manager, and trusted and reliable consultant for subject matter experts in all matters concerning online course design and development, I have worked with various content authoring tools and learning technologies such as Articulate Rise/ Storyline, Brightspace/ D2L, TalentLMS, H5P, Camtasia, Canva, SnagIT, Vyond, and Adobe Creative Cloud. I am also beginning to experiment with generative AI applications and tools to guide the instructional design process and generate assets for E-learning development.

Below are two sample courses in Articulate Rise, one course in Storyline and one in Adobe Premiere.
