About Me




Hello Everyone,

Welcome to my blog! My name is Lauryn Davis and I am so happy you are here! Here is a little bit about me:

I am a dedicated and results-driven professional with a background deeply rooted in education. In 2021, I earned my Bachelor's degree in Birth-Kindergarten Education from Kennesaw State University a foundation that ignited my passion for shaping young minds during their crucial formative years.

Currently, I am pursuing a Master's degree in Learning and Technology online at Arizona State University, driven by my belief in the transformative power of technology in education. This academic pursuit aligns with my professional experiences, especially in my role as a Quality Assurance Assistant at Legacy Academy Corporate. In this position, I collaborated directly with the president to ensure the maintenance of quality educational standards and NAEYC accreditation across 15 Legacy Academy schools. Effective communication, attention to detail, and a commitment to policy implementation were key facets of my responsibilities.

My journey also includes a fulfilling tenure as a Kindergarten Teacher at Georgia Cyber Academy in Atlanta, GA. Teaching in an online virtual environment for a diverse group of 25 kindergarten students, I employed various educational apps and technologies to provide an enriching learning experience. Daily communication with families was a priority, ensuring a supportive online learning environment and fostering a sense of value for this mode of education.

My commitment to hands-on teaching is showcased through my Yearlong Clinical Experience at Dunleith Elementary School, where I taught all content areas for kindergarten students, including those in an all-ESOL cluster. Innovative lessons, such as hands-on activities and SMART board games, were integral to my teaching methodology.

Moreover, my Initial Field Experience at Discovery Point allowed me to contribute to the daily care and learning of children aged 6–3 years, emphasizing developmental milestones through the GELDS early learning standards.

As I continue to navigate the dynamic field of education, my goal is to integrate technology seamlessly into the learning experience. This aligns with my current academic pursuits and underscores my dedication to enhancing education through innovation.

The Future of Online and Blended Learning

The Future of Online and Blended Learning With emerging technologies such as AI, Virtual Reality, microlearning, and mobile learning, along with the implementation of tools like ChatGPT and Google Gemini in our daily work, the use of technology is greater than ever. The question remains: how will this impact learning? Koksal states, “Online learning has shown significant growth over the last decade, as the internet and education combine to provide people with the opportunity to gain new skills. Since the COVID-19 outbreak, online learning has become more centric in people's lives” (Koksal, 2020). Since online learning has already taken the world by storm, especially since COVID-19, the question is: what will it look like in the future, even as soon as ten years from now? Today, we will examine the current state of online and blended learning, review emerging technologies, and explore their potential impact on the future of education. Technology Today As most of you know, technology...

Building an E-Learning Module

Building an E-Learning Module Being able to build an effective e-learning module has been one of the many goals I have had throughout my learning design and technology graduate program. I recently took one of my last classes in my course sequence LDT 504, where I got the opportunity to learn the ins and outs of Articulate Storyline to build my own e-learning module. Today I want to highlight the good and the difficult tasks that I have found in building an e-learning module, and then I want to highlight some future changes that I can see with e-learning going forward. The Overview: For context, I was assigned a task where I was to select a scenario-based design case to help me with building my e-learning module. I chose to work on the Mia Grace Environmental Foundation. Please review a little about my role below: After virtually meeting with Carol, essentially my goal was to create a learning module to help the parents of students work with their students in order to help their stude...

I'm On the Curve

The Early Majority: Rodger's Diffusion of Innovation Theory suggests that people are divided into five categories in which they go about understanding new technology within learning design. "The five categories of adopters are innovators, early adopters, early majorities, late majorities, and laggards" (ASU, 2024).   Image of the Bell Curve for Rodger's Diffusion of Innovation Theory (ASU, 2024) Upon reflecting and learning about the different categories of adopters, I consider myself part of the early majority of adopters. Today, I want to share my perspective as a learning designer and how I make decisions that align with where I stand on Rodger's Diffusion of Innovation Theory bell curve. I will then reflect on the possible changes to the curves impacting me as I learn more about learning design and the steps I need to continue learning more as an upcoming learning designer. What is the Early Majority?   First, let's reflect on what it means to be par...
