Our next #GuildChat takes place Friday, December 1st at 11am PT / 2pm ET. Our topic for this week’s chat is on Visual Design in Learning Solutions.GuildChat_Logo

The visual design of any solution, be it an elearning course, infographic or a performance support tool plays a large role in the effectiveness of that resource.

In this week’s #GuildChat we explore the importance of visual design elements such as type, space, color, images, contrast. We will discuss the impact that this oft overlooked aspect of instructional design has on the ideas, concepts, and facts being taught and look to the community to share some of the best tips, techniques and resources you can leverage today to bring clarity to your content!
