Semih Bedir Profile Picture

HELLO!

I’m an instructional designer and multimedia enthusiast with a knack for bringing educational content to life. My journey has taken me through roles at Fordham University Business School and Law School, where I focused on creating engaging learning experiences, and I’ve also had the pleasure of teaching at Ohio University, Virginia Commonwealth University, and the University of Dayton. My passion lies in crafting multimedia materials that not only educate but also captivate—drawing from my background as an award-winning filmmaker.

I enjoy combining storytelling with instructional design to create content that truly connects with learners and keeps them engaged. My research into instructional technology, global media flows and audience engagement also helps me stay current and adapt to the ever-changing landscape of educational technology.
