To help teams and individual educators create better online experiences for their students, the Canvas LMS site for my most recent highly successful offering of SFU CMPT-363 User Interface Design (which was redesigned as an online and more scalable variation of the traditional 3rd-year face-to-face course) remains public. The source content for this course, along with the previous two offerings, is also available at the CMPT-363 Hub Standalone site built with the Docsify Open MultiCourse Starter Kit.

I also support several related open-source projects, including Mastodon, Docsify, Docsify-Themeable and Grav CMS.

Having benefited from informational interviews early in my career, I welcome similar requests for coffee meetups in #YVR when my extensive experience in higher education instruction, the craft of interaction design, and professional consulting practices can be of value.

While all my open-source tools are freely available for anyone to use and benefit from, I also offer professional services for teams or organizations seeking personalized support. Drawing on experience from over 140 software projects spanning 25 years of professional consulting, these services help create better outcomes and experiences with open content publishing. See the Services page for details, or Contact me or send a note to paul@hibbittsdesign.org.
