David S. Noffs
Northwestern University
Lecturer and Senior Learning Designer
Greater Chicago Area
I have spent most of my life designing innovative learning environments, from my early work with hi-tech mobile classrooms in Australia’s rural communities, to over ten years as an instructional technologist and designer in the Center for Innovation in Teaching Excellence at Columbia College Chicago.
I joined the faculty at Northwestern's School of Professional Studies in 2016 to teach in the Information Design and Strategy program and then joined the Distance Learning team as a Learning Designer in 2017. In this role, I am able to do what I love most; help educators make learning a productive, enjoyable, and transformative experience.
