In this sample, the user has the opportunity to practice inserting a table of contents in Word. I used layers, states, triggers, and variables.

In this sample, I used Camtasia to demonstrate how to use the morph transition in PowerPoint. I used Vyond to create the intro and outro.

In this sample, I also used synced narration, animations, and layers, but graphics only (no characters) to create a promotional video.

BIO
I have more than 15 years of experience in instructional design and development in a variety of topics: first responder training, second language acquisition, and software training. I have developed materials for both on-line delivery and classroom instruction. I also have several years of experience in training delivery, which I believe improves my curriculum development projects.
I have consistently received excellent evaluations on my products by both the customers and the trainers that deliver them.
