Creative Learning Solutions

“It’s a pleasure working with Steve. He put in the time to better understand our content, which helped him ask insightful questions and in turn, helped us get clarity on what we were trying to accomplish. His efforts to learn whatever technologies were new to him, allowed us to focus on the content without spending the time to learn them ourselves.” July 2011

“ Steve made important contributions to our work addressing learning needs at UCOP. He applied his strong knowledge of instructional design principles, identified learner needs, researched solutions, and created engaging and useful training solutions. I particularly valued his creativity, commitment to design, and passion for learning.” July 13, 2010

“Steve shows high promise and aptitude as an instructional designer. In his first year at SF State, his work has been exceptional and he has shown extreme interest in learning everything – as quickly as he possibly can. Rather than overwhelming him, his aggressive approach to learning instructional design theory and skills is paying off in excellent projects completed for classes and internships. Steve is early in his career as an ID, but he shows very high promise.” July 5, 2010

“Steve prioritized our team project and helped keep the rest of us on schedule to complete the course. He took the initiative to learn about the topic and added information that he thought would apply. We appreciated his patience and flexibility through our discussions. In the end, his effort to work with us and our collective vision helped create a professional final product that will better reflect current University goals and standards.” July, 2011

“I love working with Steve because he is smart, proactive, and delves right into whatever it is he is working on. He learned our LMS system almost instantly and has provided first-rate support for it. He is always thinking of how we can improve/update our processes and offers friendly, helpful support to get us through our change efforts. He is one of those rare people you actually look forward to seeing every work day because of his friendly, cooperative demeanor.” September 20, 2010

“Steve is a true self-starter and a fast paced learner who produces quality work. As our instructional design intern, he took on a key project producing an online learning course for our educational program participants. His learning needs assessments were comprehensive and he did an outstanding job of working independently with our internal clients to assure satisfaction. Steve also ramped up on our authorware and learning management system technology quickly and brought design attributes to his training course that exceeded expectation. On top of all of that, Steve was a pleasure to work with and easily integrated into our team. Steve will be a super employee for the organization lucky enough to recruit him.” July 14, 2010

Steve is all that he advertises – passionate about instructional design, creative, energetic in his approach to otherwise boring subject matter, on time with his deliverables, and fun to work with. He has done wonderful work for us developing e-courses (using eLearning Brothers templates) and websites, among many other things. He has been a huge contributor on our team
