The Challenge: A comprehensive needs analysis identified a critical gap in Arizona State University’s professional development offerings: a lack of structured training for instructors on Competency-Based Learning (CBL).
The Solution: I spearheaded the design and development of a custom instructional track to address this institutional need. This project required extensive foundational research into CBL frameworks to ensure the content was not only academically rigorous but also aligned with the organization's strategic goals for student mastery and retention.
Key Design Elements:
Gap Analysis & Alignment: Conducted a deep dive into existing learning materials to identify deficiencies and map new content to institutional competencies.
Research-Driven Content: Synthesized complex CBL theories into an actionable, accessible format for higher education faculty.
Scalable Instructional Framework: Built a modular course architecture that allows for ongoing updates as pedagogical standards evolve.

The Challenge: Identified a lack of "functional alignment" across district-wide ELA departments. Without a standardized breakdown of standards, assessment data were unreliable because "Mastery" was defined differently from site to site.
The Solution: I developed a technical framework that translates abstract ELA standards into a high-fidelity Standard-Task Analysis. This standardized the "instructional output" for the entire district, ensuring that whether a student is in School A or School B, the functional requirement for writing an argumentative claim remains identical.
Key Design Elements:
Requirement Analysis: Conducted a deep dive into ELA strands to isolate high-critical "tasks" (e.g., Claim Development) from low-frequency "sub-tasks."
Standardized Logic Model: Built a modular framework that allows teachers to input their own content (books/articles) while maintaining a locked "functional process" for student mastery.
Scalable Deployment: Designed the breakdown to be deployed as a "living document" across the district, allowing for iterative updates based on student performance data.

Secondary English Course Design
The Focus: Bridging classical literacy with contemporary multimodal analysis.
This IGCSE English Literature curriculum is engineered to foster deep critical inquiry by juxtaposing traditional canon with modern cultural artifacts. The design emphasizes recursive skill-building and transparent learning paths to support high-stakes assessment readiness.
Key Curriculum Highlights:
Multimodal Textual Analysis: Integrates diverse media—from Shakespearean Sonnets to modern lyricism—to build transferable analytical frameworks.
Structured Scaffolding: Utilizes EduProtocols (like the Frayer Model and CyberSandwich) to standardize routines, reducing cognitive load during complex thematic analysis.
Intentional AI Integration: Features a robust AI Usage Policy that empowers students to use generative tools ethically for brainstorming and outlining while maintaining authentic voice.
