Learning architecture
Translate measurable outcomes into aligned evidence, practice, assessment and a deliberate slide sequence.
LXD-SLD-201 · Learning experience design
Evidence-Based Slide Design for Digital Learning
Learn to architect, build, test and publish slide-based learning that is cognitively efficient, visually clear, interactive, accessible and measurable—not merely attractive.
Build-oriented courseLearners complete a 15–20 screen capstone module with storyboard, original visual explanation, interaction, accessibility evidence, media-rights register, publishing manifest, tracking plan and usability report. Competence is based on the ability to create and defend a working learning product.
Capability outcomes
From slide formatting to learning-product engineering.
Cognitive design
Apply cognitive-load management, chunking, signaling, contiguity, segmenting and multimedia principles deliberately.
Visual explanation
Build typography, hierarchy, diagrams, process visuals, comparisons, data graphics and progressive disclosures that teach.
Interaction and feedback
Create retrieval practice, scenarios, classification, branching, guided notes and feedback that require meaningful thinking.
Accessibility
Design titles, reading order, alt text, captions, keyboard operation, non-colour cues and accessible interactions from the storyboard stage.
Publishing and measurement
Plan SCORM/xAPI tracking, LMS completion rules, analytics questions, QA and production validation.
Learning map
Twelve modules from science to production.
01 · Slideware as a learning systemPurpose, learner context and slide functions.
02 · Outcomes and backward designCapability, evidence, assessment and alignment.
03 · Cognitive load & multimedia learningChunking, coherence, signaling, contiguity and segmenting.
04 · Storyboarding & learning UXScreen states, navigation, progress and production planning.
05 · Typography & hierarchyReadable type, grids, alignment, spacing and visual rhythm.
06 · Visual explanation & data storytellingDiagrams, screenshots, charts, concept maps and media rights.
07 · Narration, media & motionScripts, synchronization, captions and purposeful animation.
08 · Interaction & retrievalScenarios, classification, feedback, gamification and guided notes.
09 · Accessibility & inclusionWCAG-oriented design, reading order, alt text, keyboard and captions.
10 · Authoring toolsPowerPoint, Google Slides, Storyline and Captivate production patterns.
11 · LMS publishing & analyticsSCORM concepts, xAPI statements, completion and tracking design.
12 · Evaluation & iterationContent review, usability testing, analytics and definition of done.
Practical evidence
Eight build labs plus a complete capstone module.
Labs cover slide diagnosis, outcome architecture, cognitive-load refactoring, storyboarding, visual teaching sequences, interactive prototypes, accessibility remediation and LMS publishing/tracking. The capstone requires the learner to produce a complete accessible learning module and evidence portfolio.
