About Me
Hey there! My name is Jasmine Quiceno. I am a Central Florida-based instructional systems designer. After 8 years in the public school system, I made the leap and switched to a career in instructional design. In 2014, I earned my bachelor's degree from The University of North Florida (Swoop!) in Elementary Education. In 2021, I earned my master's degree from The University of Central Florida (Go Knights!) in Instructional Design and Technology with a concentration in Information Systems. After being on both the student end and the teacher end of education, especially during the pandemic, it is clear to me how instructional materials must be planned, developed, and executed with great thought.
Educational Philosophy
As a teacher for 8 years, I have been afforded the opportunity to teach kindergarten, first grade, third grade, and fifth grade. I believe that education never stops and is continuously changing with the times. I continue to make every effort to adapt to the new changes to meet the needs of my learners.
After working on a government contract for the Navy, I was able to adapt my skills to meet the needs of my adult learners. The phrase "time is money" resonates with me because I believe all educational materials should be a purposeful use of the student's time. The material should be engaging, measurable, and align with the learning goals set by the company.
Technology and interactive activities are key aspects of education. The more students are involved in the experience, the better they will be able to conceptually understand the material being presented. I believe one of the ways that this can be achieved is through pleasing visual aids and videos. Adding color, graphics, and videos can change the delivery of the information in a remarkable way.
