Enterprise Management (CEP 2) Instructional Design & M365 Course Architecture v2

Course: Enterprise Management (CEP 2) Institution: Joint Special Operations University (JSOU) Enlisted Academy Platform Architecture: Microsoft 365 Ecosystem (SharePoint Online, Microsoft Teams Classwork, OneNote Class Notebook) 📌 Executive Overview This instructional design portfolio walkthrough reveals the architectural transformation of the Enterprise Management (CEP 2) course for Senior Non-Commissioned Officers across Joint Special Operations Forces. Faced with severe maintenance and editing bottlenecks caused by hard-coded HTML blocks inside Microsoft Teams, this project untangled content from presentation code. By engineering a 3-Layer Microsoft 365 Architecture (SharePoint Visual Layer, Teams Classwork Navigation Layer, OneNote Instructional Layer), the course establishes a highly scalable, repeatable, and accessible learning ecosystem across the academy. The walkthrough details how human-in-the-loop AI workflows (ChatGPT, Gemini, and NotebookLM) were harnessed to build grounded multimedia assets, alongside authentic, AI-resistant Special Operations assessments. 🚀 Key Instructional Design Innovations Separation of Content & Presentation: Solved HTML editing bottlenecks by authoring content in master source files while leveraging native M365 containers for delivery. 3-Layer M365 Ecosystem: Utilized SharePoint as the visual lobby/landing page, Teams Classwork as the organized hallway for navigation, and OneNote/Teams Assignments as the deep instructional classroom. Standardized Classwork Taxonomy: Standardized module resources using strict prefix codes (W01-L01 – 01 Overview through 07 Reference Materials) to preserve resource ordering during module reuse. Grounded Multi-AI Workflows: Leveraged ChatGPT to structure reusable M365 component templates; used Gemini and NotebookLM to rapidly produce podcasts (Audio Overviews), visual slides, and self-assessment quizzes 100% anchored in approved joint doctrine. Authentic PME Assessments & AI Integrity: Designed strategic analysis matrices based on Joint Warfighting Concept scenarios and JIIM-C environments11. Enforced academic integrity with a mandatory 1-sentence AI disclosure statement on submitted work. Universal Design for Learning (UDL): Provided multi-modal content delivery (text, podcasts, visual charts, downloadable PDFs) with high-contrast, screen-reader-friendly formatting and transparent rubrics. 🛠️ Tools & Technologies Featured LMS & Collaboration: Microsoft Teams (Classwork, Assignments, Channels), SharePoint Online, OneNote Class Notebook, Assessment & Formative Tools: Microsoft Forms, Teams Assignments, Visual Rubrics Generative AI Workflows: ChatGPT (Component Scripting & Exemplars), Gemini & NotebookLM (Grounded Podcasts, Slides, & Quizzes) Standards Applied: JSOU EA Lesson Template v1.0 & Classwork Module Specification 🏷️ Hashtags#InstructionalDesign #EducationalTechnology #MicrosoftTeams #SpecialOperations #PME #AIinEducation #NotebookLM #CourseDesign #HigherEd #CurriculumDevelopment
