About Me

Hi! I am Dr. Jolene Addington,

I specialize in higher educational experiences!

I am an instructional designer and higher education professional. Backed by a Doctor of Education and over 20 years of experience in the educational field, I am currently expanding my instructional frameworks through a Master of Education in Instructional Design and Educational Technology. My deep areas of expertise include curriculum development, adult learning principles, inclusive pedagogical practices, and online course design. I am highly proficient in Microsoft Office Suite, Google Suite, Zoom, and Canva alongside extensive, hands-on administration within core Learning Management Systems (LMS) such as Blackboard, Canvas, Moodle, and Brightspace.

As a creative and resourceful thinker, my strength lies in my ability to translate intricate academic content into structured, equitable, and highly interactive learning environments.

What drives my passion for instructional design is a lifelong commitment to advancing student achievement; this is reflected in my recent professional milestone of serving as a primary writer for the Michigan Department of Education’s Early Childhood Standards of Quality for Birth to Kindergarten.

Philosophy of Learning Design and Technology

My digital design philosophy centers on building orderly, highly efficient, and brain-friendly environments that prioritize the internal processing needs and cognitive capacities of the learner. Drawing from extensive curriculum development experience, I believe that an effective instructional designer must abandon overwhelming, continuous streams of data in favor of a purposeful intentional design. By systematically implementing the ADDIE framework, I approach web design as a structured and deliberate process.
