For those of you who know me, intentionality in design is something I prioritize above all else. There’s rarely a detail in anything I create that doesn’t serve some specific purpose.  And so, as I worked over the last year to refine the brand and website for The eLearning Designer's Academy, an incredible amount of thought and energy went into the story we wanted to tell and the experience we wanted to create. So, with the launch of our next website last week, I wanted to share a bit about how it all came together...because, trust me, I hardly did it all on my own! And to do that, I created a short video to provide a behind-the-scenes look. But before you check it out, I want to take a moment to send a special thanks to Sarah Samuelson and Josh Jacobs, who helped me bring my vision to life. Sarah, a brand expert and visual designer, helped me craft a brand that truly embodies the persona I wanted to create with our new website...and Josh, a top website designer, did all of the hard work to make the website a reality in Webflow. So, enjoy learning a little more about how our new brand and website came together…and let me know what you think down in the comments!

🎙️ New Episode Alert 🎙️ The Journal of Systems and Software, in partnership with the New Books Network, proudly presents the latest episode of the Scholarly Communication podcast! 🌟 Episode Title: (Real) Real-World Practice for Software Engineering 🎧 In this thought-provoking conversation, host Daniel Shea sits down with Christof Ebert, Managing Director of Vector Consulting Services and valued member of the Editorial Boards of IEEE Software and the Journal of Systems and Software. Christof reflects on the relationship between academia and industry: "As in all scientific research, we software engineers need, too, the basic research. But I'd say a distinguishing feature of our field is the trigger point... For example, the trigger point for search algorithms becoming a discipline — well, that was the outcome, really, of Google. It wasn't, primarily, a phenomenon of any university... It was the founding of the company that actually innovated the whole search discipline." 💡 Tune in to explore how academia and industry can work together to drive innovation in software engineering. 🔗 Find the episode at: https://lnkd.in/eegTEfJu Don't miss this insightful collaboration between NBN and JSS on a topic at the heart of software engineering today. #Podcast #SoftwareEngineering #ScholarlyCommunication #AcademiaAndIndustry #JSS

ThingLink has launched a new AI-Powered ThingLink Scenario Builder that helps transform text-based materials, such as PDFs, technical guides and manuals, into interactive learning resources. At its best, AI-assisted immersive content creation accelerates the shift from centralized, out-of-context learning of the industrial age to a more accessible, flexible and personalized approach. The new version of ThingLink’s Scenario Builder includes a Create with AI feature that – based on your starting materials and prompts – generates a suggested framework for your learning experience, consisting of a series of content blocks that you can easily edit. The Create with AI functionality has been developed as a European Digital Innovation Hub (EDIH) project, in collaboration with the University of Eastern Finland (UEF) and Kuopio Health. The project aimed to develop a solution that would help users transform existing text-based materials into various forms of dynamic, interactive learning experiences, including linear or branched learning scenarios.
