Some of our work
Project: Lesson Plan Update
Client: Nonprofit education team
Problem to solve: Update existing lesson plans for K-12 audience in a way that is digestible and easy for teachers to use.
KTD+ team members: An instructional designer with editorial experience, a designer, and a proofreader worked directly with the client project manager.
Approach: KTD+ ID reviewed existing materials and developed a high-level plan for creating multiple versions of the content for all grade levels (e.g., K-2, G3-5, etc.). Once the plan was approved, the ID adapted the content accordingly. Meanwhile, the designer presented comps of lesson plan samples for review that used the client’s branding and was more classroom friendly and appropriate for each grade band. Once those were approved, the designer formatted the updated content for proofreading, client review and finalization.
Project: Certification Course Development
Client: Trade association education team
Problem to solve: Update existing certification training program to include new topics and update existing ones.
KTD+ team members: Three instructional designers, a copyeditor, a team coordinator/photo researcher, and a project manager worked directly with the client project lead.
