Task to work on in the Reading Week
During the reading week, it would be useful if you familiarize yourself with Gagne’s nine events of instructions. This model is often used to inform design of instructional multimedia material. For Gagne, good instructional multimedia should be organized along the nine events of instructions. Click on THIS link to access relevant instruction and pointers to material.

Session 3
In the second session we were building Thailand multimedia package. We managed to develop the introductory section and menu structure. In this evenings class we will try to feel in the sections with some content. However, I also hope that the students will be self motivated enough to go through the self-paced tutorial, which I developed in order to speed up learning. If you have not done this previously, click HERE to download the tutorial.
For this session, we should also try to make some more interactive stuff. I prepared self-passed instruction on design of various kinds of interactive questions based on our last class. Click here to download. Source code of this sequence is given here . I also recommend that you do through this self-paced tutorial will introduce some important concepts of designing interactivity
Finally, I would like you to inform me about your Group Assignment plans. Please feel in the following form.

Session 2
In this session we will start building interactive multimedia presentation with Authorware. The reason is that through this experience you will get to understand a number of important design principles and approaches. Once you understand these, it would be much easite for you to start using other software such as Flash.
I created step-by-step tutorial how to develop Thailand Multimedia Album presentation which we begun making in the last class. Click HERE to download the tutorial. The tutorial is a bit large file (zip file about 200Mb) and it contains over one hour instructions showing visuals with my voice over describing how to develop every part of the package. If you go through this presentation carefully, pause it when needed and try to follow steps by creating your own presentation, you will be able to learn certain useful things about Authorware. All the media for the tutorial is available for download HERE. Try to do this in your own as we might not have luxury of time to do in details in this in the class. In next class we will have to move on with some more complex interactions and to slowly transit towards variables, functions and design of some simple learning objects.
Finally, I would also like you to focus on your project. At least by next class, have a topic and a team in mind for the project.

Welcome to the Module and the First Session
Welcome to the MITE6302 Hypermedia and Multimedia in Education. You can click HERE to access the module outline. In module you will explore how to effectively source, select, use, adapt, develop and evaluate the use of selected hypermedia and multimedia in education. Here are specific learning outcomes for the module:
⇒ Select, use and evaluate existing multimedia and hypermedia productions in teaching and learning.
⇒ Plan and manage multimedia and hypermedia development process.
⇒ Follow-up though design process with particular emphasis on instructional design elements in order to plan for pedagogically sound products.
⇒ Develop basic media elements (video, digital images, audio and text) for integration into a final production.
⇒ Integrating media into an interactive product.
⇒ Package and deliver educational multimedia and hypermedia products.
My name is Dr Daniel Churchill and I will be taking you through the first half of the module. You can see my photo on the area on the right. Second half of the module will be conducted by Dr Felix Siu. If you want to know more about me or get my contact details check http://www.learnactivity.com .
In the first session, you will be introduced to the fundamental concepts and we will start with authoring practices. You will use Adobe Authorware as this tool will allow you to quickly understand fundamentals of authoring courseware and instructional design practices. Once you understand these, you will be able to more easily move on with Adobe Flash.
HERE are the slides for the first session.
I wish you pleasant and productive learning experience in this module.
