Digital Media Design for Learning alum Jorge Santiago

The most rewarding part about being an Instructional Designer is that I get the opportunity to build meaningful learning experiences that impact learners. I work with an international team across multiple time zones, I get to make decisions that affect teachers and student learning in the classroom, and I am constantly learning and applying new ways of building learning experiences for both teachers and students.
