This portfolio highlights selected instructional design projects developed during my graduate work in Instructional Design & Technology. Each project reflects applied theory, visual communication strategy, and performance-focused design grounded in real-world contexts.
Instructional Visual Production Toolkit:
Photography & Illustration Systems
A curated production toolkit developed for instructional designers who must occasionally serve as their own visual producers. This project evaluates hardware, software, workflow systems, AI-supported tools, and distribution considerations—balancing quality, mobility, cost, and learner needs.
Two customized production systems are outlined: one for photography and one for illustration, each aligned to practical design demands and modern instructional environments.
Visual-Only Instructional Lesson Design & Storyboard
A fully developed lesson plan and production-ready storyboard for an original visual-only instructional experience. Designed to function without written instruction, the lesson demonstrates how intentional visual sequencing can reduce cognitive load and support intuitive transfer.
The project includes learner analysis, performance context, learning objectives, and detailed production specifications structured for independent illustration or photography development.
Minimizing Bias in Instructional Design
A concise micro-learning module designed to help instructional designers identify, evaluate, and reduce bias in learning materials. The project integrates audience analysis, representation review, and inclusive design strategies to support equitable learner access and engagement.
Developed as a rapid eLearning prototype, the module emphasizes clarity, structured progression, and immediately applicable design practices.
Radar Signals Have “Fingerprints” Too
Understanding radar emitter identification through signal signatures using a visual fingerprint analogy. This visual micro-lesson compares fingerprint ridge patterns and minutiae with radar signal characteristics such as pulse repetition interval, pulse width, and modulation to demonstrate how analysts identify unique radar emitters through pattern recognition.
