Project Overview

Company: Arlington ISD | Tools: Google Sites, H5P

Sometimes the most impactful learning solution isn't a course. It's a system. This project is about how I identified an unmet need, designed a solution from scratch, and launched a sustainable learning ecosystem in 10 weeks with no roadmap, no budget request, and no one asking me to do it.

My Role

I conceived, designed, and launched this initiative independently, working in partnership with department leads, an assistant principal, the school principal, and a district administrator to gain alignment and support. This was not a top-down assignment. I identified the gap, made the case to stakeholders, and drove the project from idea to execution.

The Solution

I designed and launched a Teacher Technology Adoption Hub hosted on Google Sites, a deliberate platform choice that prioritized a familiar interface, zero cost, and fast development. From conception to go-live, the full build took 10 weeks.

The hub launched with 6 video tutorials covering the most commonly used software tools and 3 to 5 job aids and quick reference guides, designed as a scalable foundation that could grow over time. The goal was not to build everything at once but to establish a working format and hand it off as a living resource.

Alongside the hub, I designed and launched the New Teacher Liaison Program, a structured peer support initiative I created because the need existed and no one else had named it yet. The program brought 15 to 30 new educators together monthly for collaborative learning and peer mentorship. We ran three sessions before post-COVID disruptions and staffing changes impacted continuity.

Before my departure, I trained team members to maintain the platform and documented the framework so the work could continue beyond my involvement.

The Outcome

Despite launching at a single middle school as a pilot initiative serving 150+ educators, the resource center generated strong early adoption and measurable engagement.

• Over 60% of educators actively used the resource center, based on survey data

• Teachers reported faster access to the technology support they needed

• The New Teacher Liaison Program created a structured peer mentorship community where none had previously existed

• Stakeholder alignment was secured across department, school, and district levels within the 10-week launch window

 Transferable to Corporate L&D

While this project was built in a K-12 environment, the core competencies it demonstrates — learning ecosystem design, change enablement, stakeholder influence, and rapid deployment — translate directly to corporate L&D and organizational development contexts.
