LEARNING. SIMPLIFIED.

  I recently published two new strategic frameworks: BOLD (Business-Oriented Learning Design) and The Adoption Gap . I needed high-quality video explainers for both. By integrating AI into my instructional design workflow, I achieved a staggering 87% reduction in video production time using Google Vids. The Efficiency Leap Traditionally, creating a scripted, high-quality three minute video with manual editing takes me roughly four hours . With Google Vids , I produced a finished product in just 30 minutes . The tool generated the script, AI voiceover, and 75% of the animations automatically, allowing me to focus my time on final refinements. My Workflow Drafting: I storyboarded in Google Slides, using ChatGPT to refine the clarity and tone of my notes. Refining: I used NotebookLM to synthesize my research and Gemini’s "Enhance This Slide" feature to polish the visual design. Producing:  I used  Google Vids to transform the slides into a complete video with precise t...

The Adoption Gap is a strategic framework for eliminating high-effort, low-impact course development in favor of just-in-time resource optimization that first leverages existing organizational assets—such as technical documentation, help centers, and YouTube content—to meet immediate learner needs. It then utilizes AI and Learning Experience Platforms (LXPs) to amplify the power of these resources by synthesizing them into dynamic, structured learning paths.  This approach creates massive efficiency, saving learning teams significant time and effort by automating the "Adoption" phase of the journey, which acknowledges that users consume content through search and targeted discovery rather than linear courses during this stage. By removing the need to build exhaustive materials for this middle phase, learning teams can focus their expertise on the high-impact areas of Onboarding and Mastery.   I also created this infographic with help from AI. I used NotebookLM and fed it my G...
