Time management has always been a passion of mine.  A few years ago, a colleague walked me through how to incorporate a zero-inbox workflow for my email processing, and it immediately reduced my work stress and increased my productivity.  After implementing this approach, I became interesting in finding even more ways to ease the strain of handling emails and I came across the 4D approach.  I have trained colleagues and students informally on email management for several years now, and I was finally able to make this information more available and interactive by creating this course.  One of my favorite aspects of this course is the fact that the content is relevant to everyone, regardless of their job or age, and it can create immediate change.    

Until creating this course, I had not attempted putting material together in Articulate Rise.  I found the program to be very user-friendly and was able to produce this training very quickly.  To expand on this training, I would dive deeper into the supplemental email habits that I covered in the third module and perhaps create some screen-sharing videos walking through how to use those settings.  Additionally, you can import storyline files into rise to add more variety of interactions and I would like to explore that feature more as well.
