Last project! My final project was to create a series of screencasts to be used by the team I help to support. I have previously created some "DIY" materials that fit within our team branding standards, and the screencasts below are how-to's and tips-and-tricks styled videos to help them make the best use of those templates. These videos will be available on an internal site portal (SAP Jam) which I'd call a mix of Facebook and document storage, but are linked here for external viewing.

Our penultimate project covered "alternative media," and we could choose from anything under the sun, so I picked a tool I am really comfortable with: Articulate Storyline. For those of you that may be reading this that are friends and family, THIS is what I do in my job! I might not be stellar at explaining it, but this should sum it up quite nicely.
For this course, we were asked to create a "day in the life" of a learner in 2026. I chose an adult, corporate learner, since that is who I primarily work with. Given that this is only 9 years away, I also drew on what I would like to see personally in an ideal world for myself. I utilized free music, sound effects, and images primarily from the Articulate content library (such a great resource!). This course, again, doesn't have a hosting option yet, so please take a look at the course in Articulate Review using the link below. Enjoy! Next up in project creation is mobile media! I had a lot of fun with this project because I've recently been using a tool called Articulate Rise pretty often at work. Rise creates a responsive "eLearning" that is most useful because it creates a lovely mobile experience for the user. The prompt for this assignment was "something" in three steps. Since I have a trip coming up soon, I chose packing for a flight. Over the last year I've become pretty efficient at air travel and figured it was a good topic to try my hand at. I haven't figured out what I want to do about hosting yet, so for now, click the button below to go to my course.
This post will review the language learning app Mango Languages, published by Creative Empire, LLC. The app has been around for 10 years, and I find it particularly interesting that this small, Michigan-based company (seriously small, they have under 50 employees) services public institutions around the globe (libraries, schools, government, etc.) and global scale companies. Below are a few highlights of Mango.
Our next assignment for this course was to produce a video and post it online inspired by the sentence: Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo. Confused? I was too. The Wikipedia description is really good at explaining what's going on, and way better than I would be at trying. I'm not going to lie, the "word nerd" in me was loving the prompt and it was right up this former PWer's alley! I wanted to do something fun and I remembered something I had seen somewhere online in the past (wish I could remember where so I could credit them!). The House Buffalo. The term was used in reference to a rather fluffy cat that resembled the shape and color of a bison. Thus, my idea was born!
The Assignment
Our first assignment of the semester with a true deliverable came this week! I was excited to get going on the project and actually started brainstorming at the beginning of last week. The idea of talking about a color for at minimum five minutes wasn't really speaking to me at first. That is, until I thought about it from a different way. "A color" means "one color," true, but what if, instead of picking ONE color, I talk about the idea of one color. This is my first course in my Masters program at University of Colorado Denver. I am pursuing a degree in Instructional Design and Adult Learning, and this course will cover different ways to produce media that can be used in a variety of learning avenues. Can't wait to get going on projects and post them here!
