How do visuals play such a key role in learning design?
Visuals can draw the eye where you want the learner to look. They can make things clearer and look more appealing. But it’s a fine balance between using visuals that look appealing and those that reinforce a message or make things easier to understand.
Mel Milloway, Learning Experience Design Manager at Miro, joined this episode of The Visual Lounge to talk about the importance of visuals and video in learning design.
Prior to working at Miro, Mel worked in learning design at Amazon and has held other learning and development roles at various organizations. She’s known for promoting and talking about UX design, crafting mock-ups, and developing learning products with a variety of technologies. She often blogs about the new tools she’s testing and shares her thoughts on the world of learning and development.
In this episode, we get to hear some of her words of wisdom around learning design, getting feedback, working with data, and the benefits of video in learning. We hear some stories from her career and how she’s helped to solve problems and target audience needs effectively.
