Udacity: Robotics Onboarding

Role: Copywriter, Creative Director How to do you get geeky robotics types to pay attention in your virtual classroom? A virtual comic book, of course. Udacity—the Nanodegree people—were having a difficult time getting students to complete pre-course assessments. Working with comic book artist Salem Powell, I created a cast of diverse, sardonic characters and a fast-paced, tongue-in-cheek story that set up quiz challenges to assess student knowledge with minimal pain.
