Hello! I'm Valarie Thomas, a seasoned educator transitioning into the realms of ed tech, corporate training, and content creation with a passion for making history come alive through technology. My journey in education, enriched with over 10 years of experience, has been a canvas where I've painted with broad strokes of innovation, particularly in instructional design and curriculum development.What sets me apart is not just my mastery in crafting engaging learning experiences for adult learners using the ADDIE model, but my adept skill with content creation and digital marketing, my talent for working with diverse stakeholders and collaborating with subject matter experts (SMEs), and my dedication to pushing the boundaries of traditional education. My role in the Richmond County School System was more than just teaching; it was about revolutionizing the way we perceive and interact with knowledge and technology evident from the staggering 40% increase in student academic growth I spearheaded.As I embrace this transitional phase, my vision is clear: to merge the rich tapestry of history with the dynamic power of technology, creating learning experiences that are not just informative, but transformative. My skills in creating compelling written and visual content, coupled with my knack for identifying skill gaps and designing impactful training plans, position me uniquely for roles in ed tech, learning and development, and beyond.I'm on a quest to find an organization that values creativity, innovation, and a forward-thinking approach to education and training. If your mission aligns with my passion for turning learning into an adventure, let's connect!#EdTechInnovator #InstructionalDesignExpert #Historyeducation #ContentCreator #Corporatetraining #museumstudies
