Instructional Design and Informative Educational Technology
As a doctoral student with a passion for educational technology and learning design, I created this website to document my academic and professional journey. Here, I plan to share insights from my doctoral research on technology-enhanced teaching and learning, highlight innovative instructional approaches, and reflect on my growth as an emerging instructional design practitioner. My goal is to synthesize important takeaways from my coursework, collaborations, and design projects that can inform best practices in learning design and the thoughtful integration of technology. I hope these resources empower fellow educators to create engaging, student-centered learning experiences. This website represents the next step in my path as I transition from doctoral student to instructional, content, and front end design professional, aiming to expand access to high-quality, personalized learning powered by research-based innovations.
