hustle

This weekend I will move forward on the exams. Classes start on Monday. The engineers will begin meeting on Thursday. This semester we're in the cramped lab in CST. It's always better than the Kruger room in the basement of Link. JCC kicks off a week later.

Interesting projects coming up. A Long-term Care online course for care providers will include a substantial amount of video and scenario-based instruction. There is some opportunity to be creative with learner-driven instruction and remediation looping. The HR-related project I mentioned before could provide similar design challenges. That course is relatively small and self-contained. My initial thinking is a basic HTML structure with some Flash and JavaScript elements. We've been using a lot of Captivate and CourseBuilder with the heavy procedural instruction. I'd like to try to work some of those elements into the courses that are less skill-based.

Took the plunge and ordered the Adobe Technical Communication suite. I'm certain it'll make a range of documentation and helpset projects easier to manager and produce.
