Micro-learning 

(40%+ Productivity & 20% Less Time)

Project Overview:
Staff in the district were underutilizing the quiz-grade features in the Learning Management System (LMS), which created gaps in student progress monitoring and led to extended grading time. This inefficiency not only affected data accuracy but also consumed significant staff hours weekly, reducing time available for other instructional responsibilities. The challenge was to create a concise, engaging, and accessible learning solution that would quickly upskill staff on the most efficient workflow for entering quiz grades.

Role and Approach:
As the instructional designer, I led the full project lifecycle, including needs analysis, design, development, and deployment. I first conducted a brief needs assessment by reviewing LMS usage reports, collecting anecdotal feedback from staff, and identifying common pain points in the grading process. Based on this analysis, I defined clear learning objectives:

• Demonstrate the fastest workflow for entering quiz grades

• Provide step-by-step visual guidance and job aids

• Ensure accessibility compliance and seamless LMS integration

Implementation:
The module was deployed district-wide via the LMS. Staff were encouraged to complete the module as part of their professional development hours, with usage tracked through LMS completion reports. I also provided brief guidance to instructional leaders on monitoring progress and supporting staff who had questions.

Results:
The microlearning solution had an immediate impact:

• 40% increase in weekly quiz grades submitted

• 20% reduction in grading time

• 30+ hours saved per week across the team

• 95% learner satisfaction based on post-training surveys

Reflection and Lessons Learned:
This project highlighted the effectiveness of targeted microlearning for procedural skills. Key lessons included:

• Short, focused module with visual support significantly increase adoption of technical workflows

• Integrating job aids directly into training reinforces skill transfer

• Monitoring real usage data allows rapid evaluation of training impact and ROI

Compliance Training

(100% Compliance within 2 weeks)

Project Overview:
A recent review revealed that nearly half of the school's staff, including all new hires, misunderstood key components of the grading policy. This lack of understanding created risks for consistency in grading and potential audit issues. The challenge was to quickly develop an engaging, accessible, and clear training solution that would ensure full compliance with grading policies across all staff.

Role and Approach:
As the instructional designer, I led the rapid redesign of an existing PowerPoint prototype into a fully interactive Google Slides module. My approach included:

• Analyzing the original training and identifying content gaps and confusing areas

• Incorporating real examples and decision-making scenarios to make policy concepts actionable

• Embedding downloadable job aids for easy reference and reinforcement

• Ensuring seamless access through the Teacher Access LMS

The module was designed as a microlearning experience, allowing staff to complete it in short, focused segments while immediately applying the concepts to their daily grading practices.

Implementation:
The redesigned module was deployed district-wide, targeting both new hires and current staff who needed clarification on grading policy. Staff were guided through interactive slides with real-life examples, scenario-based decision points, and practical job aids. Completion and adherence were tracked through the LMS to ensure accountability.

Results:
The training delivered rapid and measurable results:

• Week 1: 70% of staff achieved compliance

• Week 2: 100% compliance, sustained thereafter

Reflection and Lessons Learned:
This project demonstrated the power of targeted, interactive microlearning for policy training. Key takeaways included:

• Rapid redesign of existing prototypes can produce high-impact learning quickly

• Scenario-based examples and embedded job aids enhance understanding and retention

• Tracking completion and performance metrics ensures accountability and demonstrates ROI
