5 minute procrastination
Seems there's time to explore several apps that are mildly related to what I am working on today. #Canva
Was actually looking into Microsoft Sway. It is largely taking all of the cool aspects of RISE 360 - - - and unhinging the design from an education context. Perhaps a rather slimmed version of what you'd wish for from Power Point. Limitations and choice points refined to give you a basic template - you can't go wrong.

Memory research: How and why we remember. Author, Charan Ranganath
Topic: How and why we remember.
The author, Charan Ranganath, has a new book, 'Why We Remember'
- this promotional Waterstones interview includes some really interesting conversation around learning. *If you don't use Spotify you'll be able to find it on any Waterstones related social media.

Links and tools
Drop of tools pertaining to LD
Investigating Vyond (animation tool for LD) - You can do a 2 week free trial.
Vyond looks like a useful LD tool. Maybe comparible to Powtoon?
For quality animation:
Adobe Character Animator has a great motion capture aspect - free trial
Moho Debut is a one off payment - $60
In combination with Garageband and/or Audacity you could create something great - probably even motion graphic intros for educator led clips.
Here are some useful links (lots pertaining to visual design).
When I was doing more User Interface design I would grab easy icons from here:icons8
SVGrepo
I believe Canva has dominated the market (free to a point) with a good array of icons now.
Free photo images for your course design: UnSplash (RISE 360 uses these images)
Shutterstock is not free but really worth it for quality images for a course build (if that is what you need)
LMS:
I use Moodle at work but used to use the LMS Canvas when I was teaching. I much prefer it. I subscribe to Instructure to tap into 'Canvas goss' when I can.
Other links:
ACMI has game lessons that may be a good resource for some.
