The Book of Briefs: 50 Prompts to Inspire Your Next Portfolio Piece (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798387198847)

The Book of Briefs has a little something for everyone-the new designer, the transitioning teacher, the person who wants to go from academia to corporate, the experienced designer who wants a skill refresh, the enthusiastic designer who just wants to play around.

With 50 briefs to inspire you, you'll never have to stop to think "what can I make to put in my instructional design portfolio?" The Book of Briefs can get you right to building something that will wow your next client or next boss.

It's not just a portfolio-builder, though. It's also a product of a practice-centric philosophy on learning. Keeping your skills sharp means practicing problem solving in lots of different contexts. Most people aren't privy to being able to see inside many businesses, and even if they are, experimenting with solutions can feel high-risk. So, you get stuck on what you know. Well, not anymore!

Inside the book, you'll find:

• Portfolio Best Practices - Tips and rubrics for designing impactful portfolio content from a hiring manager's perspective.
• Big Picture Briefs - 20 long-form scenarios where you'll learn about a business, its operations, and its learners and respond to your contact's learning design request.
• Bite-Sized Briefs - 30 prompts for portfolio pieces you can complete in 2 hours or less

If you're ready to attract your next role, your next client, or your next opportunity to level up in your instructional design career, grab your copy of The Book of Briefs.
