I designed and developed 11 interactive Storylines for a national cybersecurity course offered through ClassLink’s cybersecurity certification initiative. These storylines were integrated into a Rise course to enhance user engagement, break up content-heavy sections, and assess knowledge. Here are some examples from the course that you can access by clicking each below.
Join Joyce to learn what to expect when working with a certified evaluator.
Practice evaluating a school district’s Detect categories with the Cybersecurity Rubric.
Discover three common interview fumbles and how to avoid them.
Move the slider from left to right to review each secure maturity level with sample evidence.
I designed and developed two Storylines to support a training course I created to help teachers and coworkers understand common accessible issues when working with images in a digital environment. Click each Storyline below to view, or access the course Create Accessible Images to view them in full context.
Explore two color-dependent image examples and why they may be problematic for individuals who cannot differentiate between specific colors.
Using the writing alt-text tips in the course, guess what the alt text should be for three images with a short amount of text to provide context.
I create micro-courses for ClassLink that teach school administrators how to use our products. In addition to writing course content, creating custom screenshots, and how-to videos, I also create simulated walkthroughs of the products I’m assigned. As of this moment, I’ve created 16 simulations.
Due to the proprietary nature of our software, I can’t publicly share them, except for the following, to give you an idea of what I do.
Simulation walking admins through creating and importing groups into their management console.
Simulation walking admins through entering details needed for a source import.
While working at Pearson, my role involved scripting interactive scenarios, arranging voiceovers, storyboarding, creating images, and collaborating with the multimedia team to bring it all together. I was the sole team member with a graphic design background, and my contributions significantly improved the visual appeal of our interactives.
While I’d love to share the specific content, I’m restricted from doing so because Pearson and our clients retain the rights. However, I can provide a glimpse of the visual design and layout I employed in some of the interactives I designed.
In an industrial psychology course, students assess whether the characters in a meeting support or oppose purchasing new computer system aimed at improving processes. Additionally, students must identify and document the behaviors exhibited by each character.
Learners in a social work course were given five branching scenarios to help someone with anger issues. Each scenario opened with a short animation explaining the process phase and then had the learner interact with a character to manage their anger. The characters reaction would change depending on the learners response. Here are the storyboards for Phase 3 and 4.
In a social work course, students engage with three vulnerable individuals in society: a pregnant teenager, a physically abused gay man, and a registered sex offender. They aim to harmonize their personal faith values (blue) with the mandated NASW code of ethics (red) to identify shared principles and ethical considerations (purple).
Learners in this educational psychology course learn about Bronfenbrenner’s four systems of human development. After learning about each level, they assess which system is impacting four different students. Finally, they analyze Alex’s school-related challenges and assess which system(s) might contribute to his difficulties based on the evidence provided.
