Design and Development
Division Board Member:

Yvonne Earnshaw

University of Alabama Birmingham


I’m an Assistant Professor in Instructional Design and Development at the University of Alabama Birmingham. For the past 20 years, I worked in industry as an instructional designer/developer, technical writer, and usability consultant.

I have been a member of AECT since 2010 and have been an active member since then attending and presenting at the conference regularly. I have served in a variety of capacities as a job center coordinator and proposal reviewer for several years. Additionally, I have also taken on leadership roles within AECT. I was elected as the GSA Representative to the D&D division (2013-2014) and later served as a D&D Board Associate (2014-2015). I also served as the Communications Officer for the DDL division (2017-2019) and have been the DDL Best Practice Award coordinator (2016-2020). One of my greatest experiences in AECT was serving as a Cochran Leadership Intern (2016-2017) where I was able to learn more about the organization. In 2019, I participated in the Early Career Symposium and this past year, participated as a faculty mentor for the AECT NATO ACT Design & Development Competition.

As a board member of D&D, I hope to serve the division again in a different capacity.
