I’m going back to basics and replacing my web-based portfolio with a PDF.
I’ll still maintain my website, www.daylearningdesign.com, mostly for the sake of my blog which now has hundreds of posts going back many years. For my portfolio content, however, I wanted something simpler and more representative of my actual work.
I’m not a front-end web developer or website designer, BUT I do make a ton of slide decks. Now I’m transitioning many work samples from my website to a simple PDF that I made in Google Slides and host in AWS.
This is the easiest way to showcase my work, and I think it more clearly communicates each case study and example. Hopefully this shows other instructional designers that we do not have to maintain expensive, custom-built websites.
Your portfolio can be as simple as a well-designed slide deck. Check my portfolio out here.
