Participants will explore & apply techniques and strategies to foster deeper learning using multimedia and graphics.

This course will include an overview of techniques and strategies that research has shown to improve learning outcomes using multimedia and graphics for learning. The role of graphics will be explored to move from the use of graphics from decoration to those that truly foster deeper learning. We will also discuss classroom delivery of multimedia. Participants will apply these concepts to improve and design instructional multimedia.

This course is not on how to create multimedia. Participants should use multimedia they already know how to use.
