Critical Thinking Cap (CTC) is an e‑learning website offering informal lessons and activities on discerning, developing, and deploying critical thinking skills. It will guide adult learners through a fun, casual critical-thinking course inspired by the principles of microlearning.
Here, sample pages from a self-paced, asynchronous, instructorless tutorial on information graphics. This demo started as a student project for a course on designing online courses. The project was extended in a subsequent course to include demonstrating the course content on additional e-learning platforms ( Moodle, Rise.com, and Adobe Captivate.)
This functioning website contains sample pages demonstrating the development and deployment of “Building Bonbons,” a food-based instructional website. When complete, this website would offer background information, how-tos, and recipes to enthusiasts of bonbons and other bite-sized confectionery. The demo includes one instructional video.
Though this flyer was originally created as a graphic introduction for my classmates in an instructional design course, it could also be (unabashedly) titled, “Notes to Future Employers.”
This fun and informative interactive game was created as part of a website encouraging pet adoptions in Seattle. The photo grid and individual graphs are generated on the fly via code I wrote in JavaScript and D3.js and a pet-registration data file of over 85,000 records.
Put simply, this is a web graphic designed to advertise and present key points of the book “Interface Design for Learning.”
Here are a few basic interactive charts I created during my first forays into D3: a line chart, a series of small multiples, a choropleth, and a strange but fun force-directed graph.
I created this lightweight CSS framework and accompanying site created for a web-design class. The framework features a 6-column grid with two breakpoints, a color scheme, table and list styling, and responsive typography. The website includes documentation on how to install the framework, employ the grid, and use the various styling features.
This world map locates various program sites. The sites are categorized and color-coded by development phase; insets with descriptive text and site sub-lists help users find sites within each phase. Designed for the YouthBuild Bulletin using Adobe Illustrator.
The YouthBuild Bulletin is an annual publication of YouthBuild USA. The 2014 edition features YouthBuild AmeriCorps and community service. For this issue, I designed a timeline of national service plus two related infographics. I also designed the publication and copyedited much of the content.
