Part 1: UX and UI: Applications for Instructional Design
Speaker:  Jean Marrapodi, Senior Learning Architect, Illumina Interactive
Preview Description:
In order to build courses that meet your business goals, as well as the needs of the learner, we need to understand our learners beyond audience analysis. Get a glimpse at the tools and methods of User Experience Design and learn to look through the lens of design thinking to solve problems.


Part 2:  Knowledge Transfer in Real Time!
Speaker:  Amy Morrisey, President, Artisan E-Learning
Preview Description:
Too often we think knowledge transfer happens after a learning event. You may have heard, "When you apply this knowledge to your own situation, you will…" What if, instead, you could develop short, laser-focused lessons that allow mastery of a single topic in real time? Learn to do just that by exploring several tools that put the learner in the driver's seat.
