Jill's Instructional Design Technology Portfolio
This portfolio showcases my learning from Instructional Design and Technology: Learning Theories. Learning Theories used in Instructional Design are compared and explained with case studies and scenarios from my life.
PROFESSIONAL HISTORY
My Experience
CURRICULUM DESIGN
I have written curriculum for undergraduate college faculty to plug and play into their classrooms. I've also written online modules to help teens conduct thorough self-exploration and career assessment for life after high school graduation.
TEACHING EXPERIENCE
From one to 70, I've engaged groups through practical and thoughtful classes and presentations. I taught a Career Perspectives course for Kelley School of Business and Purdue School of Engineering and Technology in Indianapolis.
TECHNOLOGY AND LEARNING
Being able to bring applicable and customized learning outcomes into someone's busy life is made possible through technology. I use a variety of platforms and methods to help learners get from where they are to where they want to head.
JILL VANDERWALL
Educator and Curriculum Designer
Teaching and developing ways to solve learning problems keeps me energized and excited. I worked in Higher Education for about ten years coaching incoming freshmen and sophomores, presenting to groups, teaching and developing curriculum and lesson plans that strayed away from death by power point, and writing modules for online courses.
​
I'm adding to my knowledge base by learning about instructional design and adding to the tools I've already acquired to engage and efficiently and enjoyably teach adults.
