Instructional Design Lady Podcast

The Instructional Design Lady Podcast is now available. Immerse yourself into the world of instructional design vis a vis learning theories, common instructional design models, and methods that decolonize the syllabus. On this podcast, I discuss the various roles of instructional designers; working effectively with subject matter experts; and understanding quality control for instructional designers, while improving design skills.

Instructional Designer, Teacher Educator, and Ubuntugogist

I admire all of the processes and intricacies of learning, thus designing instruction is my calling. I’m devoted to ensuring that learners are in charge of their learning and that learners co-design their instruction. In addition to designing instruction, I also function as a teacher educator and an ubuntugogist. Using the seminal work of Dr. Abdul Karim Bangura, I infuse afro-centric ideologies within the instructional design process.
