Presentations and Tutorials

Promotional - You Tube

I created this short presentation using Camtasia. 

Formal Presentations

I have created several presentations that administrators present at state and regional conferences. I take pride in providing information in graphic and supporting notes with resources cited.

Tutorials

I have been doing tutorials since 2012 on YouTube .

I'm not too embarrassed about my early attempts! Here is one from the archives! 

Presentation -- Ask-Us (with a twist)

I apply to be a presenter at several conferences. This presentation was a promotion of our agency at a Union conference, however I wanted to consider the user interest - so I created a "personal interest" topic with "commercial breaks" (There is no audio on this excerpt since it was a live presentation)


Quality Matters framework

Staff Development training

Audience: I participate in faculty trainings offered by the division of Academic and Student Affairs as often as I can. This course was offered to faculty to teach improved online instructional design.

Tools: D2L Brightspace, Kaltura, Mediaspace

Reflection: A course was created in D2L Brightspace with the intention of documenting professional growth for a call-center staff. For this course, I created a curriculum for internal staff training; structuring and prioritizing work instructions for remote workers' office set-up, foundational information needed the first week, and fundamental knowledge needed in order to manage intake channels.
