Project Background & Process

After creating a successful, introductory course on the elements of decentralized clinal trials, my employer saw the need to educate site users on the company’s solutions. After interviews with site personnel, trial participants, advocates, and other subject matter experts, knowledge & operational skill gaps were identified. A large, multi-module course was designed around the needs of salient personas, with an emphasis on delivering a high quality, interactive, and immersive experience.

Telemedicine Solutions (Course Module 5 of 7)

Features & Attributes

The 5 main modules run from 45 - 75 minute, along with an introductory and concluding module. Via lessons, slides, audio & video, each module focuses on a different solution and is divided into 4 common sections:

  • Context: industry history, vocabulary, background knowledge, traditional challenges

  • Company Solution: navigation, features, guided tour, simulation

  • Best Practices: user tips, support, regulatory features, locale & languages

  • Knowledge Check: multiple choice, true & false, scenarios, simulations

Each knowledge check contains instant feedback and a concomitant review section if not initially passed. Completing all modules results in a certification and, via integration with Credly, allows an achievement badge to be displayed on social media.

LA Confidential Foodie Expedition (Map #1)

Project Background & Process

A food tourism start-up approached me seeking training for their sales staff, called “concierges.” Each concierge was tasked with helping prospective tourists build itineraries that allowed them to both optimize the tourist’s time and provide them with rich, iconic, and novel dining experiences in the LA area. After discussions with stakeholders, subject matter experts in the tourism and restaurant industry, and prospective clients, a series of interactive maps was decided upon as the main medium to deliver concierge training and enrichment.

Features & Attributes

The 10 interactive maps feature markers showing the relative locations of 5 - 10 notable restaurants. When the learner clicks on a restaurant, they are presented with an introductory video, and then a menu containing 5 sections:

  • Founding: Images and history of the restaurant’s founding & people involved

  • Ambience/Style: description & images of the atmosphere & restaurant design

  • Menu: a general description of the fare, along with a full menu

  • Specialties: a pop up showing names,, images and descriptions of specials

  • Location: a pop-up showing a detailed map, street address & phone number

This is followed by a menu offering videos about Celebrity lore, special aspects, and trivia about the restaurant, ending with an interactive knowledge check and the awarding of a badge.

When all the badges on the map are earned, the learner then completes branching scenarios that allow them to practice taking calls from and creating itineraries based on customer preferences.
