• ​Client / Company: Massachusetts Department of Public Health, through Human Services Management Corporation (HSMC)

​

• Audience: Early Intervention professionals working with infants, toddlers, and caregivers

​

• Outcome: Learners apply PIWI dyadic and triadic strategies during Early Intervention visits to encourage positive caregiver-child interaction.

​

• Business / Learning Need: An existing quiz tested PIWI concepts but gave learners limited opportunity to practice applying them in realistic household situations.

​

• My Role: Instructional design, scenario development, SME collaboration, Storyline development, visual design, and feedback design

​

• Solution / Design: Worked with subject matter experts to expand the original quiz into a continuous branching scenario with recurring characters, realistic household situations, and decision-based practice. Learner choices triggered conversational and visual reactions, and reference content on PIWI strategies was available for review as needed.

​

• Results: Shifted the experience from primarily testing recall to giving learners practice selecting and applying PIWI strategies in realistic caregiver-child interactions.

​

• Technology: Articulate Storyline

​

• Year: 2020–2021

​

• Current Status: PIWI remains part of Massachusetts Early Intervention professional development. Current use of this specific Storyline interaction was verified in 2023.
