I have often been told the best way to develop real-world skills is to practice your craft.  By donating my time and experience, I am able to connect what I have learned in the classroom and apply it.  Often times, a project developed in the classroom does not have much impact on those around me – it is only directly related to the grade I’m trying to earn in the class.  However, by working on projects bigger than myself, I am able to help the community and those organizations I’m involved in. The AECT Code of Ethics states it best, "Shall strive continually to improve professional knowledge through research and implementation of best learning and teaching practices, and shall make available to patrons and colleagues the benefit of those professional attainments through design practices, presentations, and publications." With this in mind, it is crucial as a member of the instructional design field to push not only yourself but others to serve and make a difference in the field. For instructional design related work, please see my Design & Development page.
