7 Tips for Designing Top Tech Training TutorialsCrystal Schimpf
This document outlines 7 tips for designing effective technical training tutorials:
1. Use iterative design methods like agile design to allow for imperfection and continuously improve tutorials.
2. Pick formats like text with images, video demos, step-by-step or interactive tutorials that fit the content and learners.
3. Keep tutorials short with microlearning and chunked content broken into small pieces for accessibility.
4. Start with detailed storyboards outlining scripts, on-screen text, graphics and animations to plan content.
5. Plan screenshots and determine needed assets while ensuring quality and correct aspect ratios.
6. Record high-quality audio with good microphones, minimal noise
Special activities are fun for students and help motivate them by allowing them to explore topics in more depth and experience other cultures. They can be used as rewards or result from group projects. Word games improve language skills and help students learn concentration, following directions, and seeing relationships between words. PowerPoint presentations allow incorporation of multimedia to organize materials and cue classroom activities. The internet provides experimental learning and motivation through resources like email, chat rooms, and reading online.
The document discusses various topics related to designing effective presentations, including connecting with audiences, storytelling, structure, design thinking, and visual storytelling. Some key points covered are:

Designers shouldn't code - The wrong answer to the right questionMathias Hellquist
The document discusses how designers can start learning basic coding skills by doing design sign-offs directly in browsers using HTML and CSS. It suggests this approach will force designers to learn arguments, HTML, CSS, and possibly some JavaScript. Doing sign-offs this way shows clients the real browser experience and allows designers to take advantage of CSS features like responsive design. CSS frameworks and preprocessors can help but designers should learn real CSS first before using them.

The Intersection of Content Strategy and Instructional DesignAnn Fandrey
This document discusses the intersection between instructional design and content strategy. Both fields aim for learner experiences that are useful, usable, findable, effective and engaging. Content strategy focuses on providing the right content to the right person at the right time through the right device and context. Instructional design follows a process of evaluating needs, creating a needs-based plan, executing the plan, and assessing results. There are multiple overlaps between the two fields in their goals of creating optimal learner experiences through organized and effective content.
1) To summarize an academic document for the web, identify a specific audience and their goal in order to focus the content. Describe the audience as "X who want Y".
2) Articulate the key message or "nutshell" of the content in a simple way.
3) Break the content into logical chunks that take the audience from their current understanding to the position being presented.
The reMoodle Project: Web Usability Meets Course Website UsabilityAnn Fandrey
The reMoodle Project aims to improve the usability of course websites on Moodle. It developed a framework with 61 recommendations for site, page and document design. A pilot redesigned 9 sites, collecting instructor feedback. A soft launch redesigned 7 sites, collecting student and instructor feedback. Students found the redesigned sites clearer, better organized and easier to use. Instructors said the redesigned sites were easier for students and required fewer support questions. Some said it was harder for instructors to learn than the original interface.

• Wolves feed on livestock for food contributing
to economic losses
• Wolf populations have been increasing in
many areas of the US
• Wolves have been actively hunted since
12,000 to 13,000 years ago
• All wolves are the same species so having
wolves only in certain areas of the country
72. Cons
• Packs are often broken up into smaller groups
if they’re hunted
• Alpha wolves may be more likely to be killed
• Smaller packs may resort to feeding on
livestock for food
• The loss of key members of the pack with
specific skills leaves gaps in the pack
73. Efforts
• After the gray wolf was removed from the endangered species list
for the western great lakes region in January 2012, the Minnesota
Department of Natural Resources instituted a hunting season to
manage the population.
– Season ran from November 3, 2012 through the 18th, 2012 in some
regions and continued November 24, 2012 and ran through January 31,
2013 or until the tag limit was reached.
– That limit was set at a target of 400 wolves across the state.
– The total number of wolves harvested in this inaugural season was 412
wolves.
• On December 19, 2014 a US Federal Court ordered a stop to the
hunting of wolves in Minnesota, Wisconsin and in Michigan.
