2011: My New Digital Educational Publishing and Instructional Design Projects

Educational publishers are now adopting digital-first publishing strategies to take advantage of the proliferation of mobile devices. Apps, eBooks, and the web have replaced print as the primary media for education publication design— with the added features of interactivity, video, sound, animation, and motion graphics now available to the designer to enhance the pupils' learning experience.
