About Me
Hello, my name is Sky V. King and I am an Instructional Designer at Florida International University. Since my FIU Online story began in 2012, I have collaborated with several professors to achieve Quality Matters certification for their online courses. In fact, I am a certified Quality Matters Peer Reviewer.
I am also an Adjunct Lecturer with FIU's Marketing & Logistics department and have received Quality Matters Certification for the course in which I teach. My course has also been awarded an Affordability Counts medallion, meaning that it was designed using course materials costing the students $60 or less.
I’m passionate about life-long learning and technology. My areas of expertise include social media, game design thinking, and incorporation of diverse modes of media into online courses.
Before working for FIU Online, I was employed as a librarian in both the public and private sectors. Previously, I designed instructional materials for Miami-Dade County Public Library System and for corporate training.
What I Do
As an Instructional Designer, I can help you in developing a fully online course, effectively structuring course content and choosing sound instructional strategies for online instruction. In addition, I assist by providing you with general technical support and make recommendations as to the incorporation of emerging technologies within your courses.
