Hello there, I’m

Ann-Marie

an Instructional Designer Based in Chicago.
I am an instructional designer with the goal of creating learning experiences that stick! The part I enjoy most is transforming complex content into engaging learning modules and collaborating with stakeholders to achieve this goal. The business and operations knowledge I possess enables me to design and develop courses, manage implementation, and assess effectiveness from a business and a learner's perspective. The foundation of my expertise lies in solid business acumen, combined with consulting abilities and problem-solving capabilities, which enables me to ask relevant questions and measure performance and results.

My Path to Instructional Design
Throughout my career, I have seen so many eLearning modules that have content-heavy screens and 'tick-the-box' experiences that learners needed to click through for compliance purposes. Little or no attention is given to engagement or understanding. I want to create learning materials that go beyond the read-and-forget model.

Handup Image
With the motivation to understand how we learn, and the experience I have in learning and development, human resources, operations and project management along with the real-world problems I faced in these roles, my instructional design journey began. I knew I had the opportunity to apply my understanding of solution design and generate learning experiences aligned with business goals.

The practical experience I gained in my work roles was essential, yet I needed to back my work with theoretical foundations. Completion of a Master of Learning Sciences and Technology and a Graduate Diploma in Innovative Learning Design provided this theoretical foundation. The programs allowed me to develop a deeper understanding of learning theory alongside instructional design models and emerging technologies which have enabled me to create evidence-based learner centered learning experiences. My current work combines professional experience with academic knowledge to develop meaningful learning soluions that produce real results.

What sets me apart?


The role requirements for the job of an instructional designer shift according to changes in organisational context, external pressures and learning contexts. I stay current with industry trends and my love of learning ensures I am continuously enhancing my skills and professional development. The following abilities make me stand out as an instructional designer.

01

UX and UI
Design

I took a UI and UX Design course through RMIT to enhance my skills because I wanted to understand how learners interact with digital spaces and how well designed digital spaces can improve usability, accessibility and engagement. The methods I use in my learning design are both intuitive and purposeful, with the goal to match how the learner thinks and behaves.

02

eLearning That Works in the Real World

Basing my approach on real-world applicability through scenario-based learning, interactive activites and purposeful assessment to create meaningful learner connections. Every interaction is designed and developed with purpose rather than mere content production, with visual elements and scenarios to help the learner connect with the material while guiding them through decisions and enabling them to use their learned knowledge on real world tasks.  

03

Learning Analytics and Data-Driven Design

My business experience enables me to establish learning content and systems which produce data such as quiz results, engagement metrics and xAPI statements. These metrics assist with project evaluation effectiveness and allow for strategic design-based outcome decisions.
