Learning Architecture

Designing Thoughtful Learning Frameworks for Impact

This section outlines a few key learning architecture projects designed to enhance assessment frameworks, game-based learning, knowledge mapping, and curriculum alignment across diverse educational contexts.

Building an Assessment Framework for Counting Well

• Problem: Two parents, disappointed with traditional school assessments, wanted a system that evaluated the thought process rather than just the final answer.

• Solution: I developed an MCQ-based assessment framework that measured comprehension, correct process selection, and calculations. This three-step formula became the foundation of their startup.

• Impact: The startup transformed into a successful company, with other clients acknowledging the framework’s effectiveness.

Designing Learning Architecture for Luma World

• Problem: A startup aimed to create a math learning platform using games but needed a structured learning framework.

• Solution: I built their learning architecture using Bloom’s Taxonomy, ensuring that learning outcomes were aligned with assessments for seamless knowledge mapping.

• Impact: The structured framework streamlined the platform’s content, making it easier to track student progress.

Unpacking USCC Standards for Splash Math

• Problem: A client developing a US Common Core-aligned product needed granular knowledge points to bridge learning gaps between outcomes.

• Solution: Using my teaching experience, I identified and mapped these micro knowledge points, making the progression between standards clearer.

• Impact: The client gained a deeper understanding of learning gaps, enabling more targeted curriculum development.

Mapping Australian to Indian Curriculum for Wiley

• Problem: An Indian publishing client representing Australian textbooks wanted to determine if their content could be adapted for Indian schools.

• Solution: I mapped Australian learning outcomes against Indian standards and analyzed textbooks to assess alignment challenges.

• Impact: The study concluded that modifying the existing books would be an extensive task, and developing new books was a better option.
