Tools for the Team
In leadership roles, one of my objectives is to promptly identify the areas where our team can improve processes. I aid the team by identifying suitable tools that can help us work more efficiently and effectively. Here are two examples: an instructional design tool used when collaborating with subject matter experts to create a course blueprint, and an evaluation tool for swiftly analyzing feedback from our adult learners.
Education Tools
Course Definition
Document (CDD)
This course blueprint serves as a collaborative tool for guiding the design and development process with subject matter experts. It also captures accreditation requirements and ensures the marketing team has access to consistent, audience-appropriate language.
Data Analysis
Template in Excel
This template was designed to align with the post-activity survey tool required for learners to earn professional credits. It mirrors the format of the LMS output, making it easy for staff to interpret. By pasting LMS data directly into the template, we can quickly generate charts and tables that support data-driven decision-making about our educational offerings.
Learning Design
Module Template
Designed to set a new learning design team up for success, this Rise template models the required structure for online modules while introducing key authoring tools. It provides a consistent starting point for content development. The goal is to give the team a starting point while balancing clarity, functionality, and creative flexibility. Team members can duplicate and customize the template to build engaging, learner-centered courses.
