Course Overview

Students analyze instructional problems and audiences in order to design effective instructional media.  The research base for the course exists in learning theory, perception, instructional design, and graphic design.  Students will learn to specify requirements, select, design, and evaluate instructional media.  The course focuses on traditional media as well as computer-based media.  This is not a production course or software application course; however students will design and produce instructional media products using basic software programs (e.g., Microsoft Office).
