Details

I volunteered to create a video about Evolve for instructional designers at IDOL courses Academy. I use Evolve in my current role and wanted to help other professionals learn this tool. Before making the video, I created a course that featured the basic elements of Evolve but I didn't stop there! I wanted to showcase advanced features that I use in my courses, specifically the infographic component. I ended up creating two videos, one for each page in the course. 

I wrote the course content, created the graphics using Canva and Figma, developed both the theme and course in Evolve, and recorded the videos using Zoom. After recording the videos, I revised the course so it can be a stand-alone eLearning experience.
