Through building various online learning solutions, and more recently addressing the mobile learner, it has been imperative to maintain a consistent theme across our entire experience. We didn't just guess; in fact, to deliver good design, we had to synthesize a group of design and cognitive systems, such as graphic, multimedia, instructional, user-interface, and user-experience. Why? Because all of these matter when designing and developing learning experiences, and all have different considerations dependent on device or screen size. This session will help you to consider all aspects of learning experience design, and to follow best practices and guidelines to achieve a unified instructional brand and theme across all learning experiences, no matter the screen size or intent. We will show you firsthand the many experiences we've developed that all share a common thread (something we call "Polymathic Learning Experience Design") while, at the same time, are designed specifically for each device category. When learners touch any experience within your ecosystem, you want them to experience something meaningful and contextual, making their learning journey seamless and design as invisible as possible. A holistic design to learning experience is powerful and necessary.
