Problem Solved

Design for K-12 Education

While working at Pearson, Inc. I had the opportunity to work in a small, talented group of folks to design the next generation of Pearson Education products for K-12. The shift toward digital curriculum was inevitable, I just happened to be in the right place at the right time for a revolution. (and had a good leader) It started with a technology presentation to shareholders which led to work on enVision Math that led to a platform redesign of Pearson SuccessNet to support all K-12 products and then design for Miller & Levine Biology, Prentice Hall Literature, Social Studies and many others there after. (Product release dates of 2009, 2010 and 2011)

Here are a few images from my favorite designs I created that you can’t see anywhere else.

Congratulations to everyone who struggles through to bring these products to market. Hard work pays off. Passionate people make it so. All those that have been released to date are award winning.
