Multimedia Production
Project
W301 Oct 5, 2008
Goals
To develop a basic understanding of multimedia tools
To consider another way to interact with and engage your
students.
To approach materials in ways beyond the traditional
classroom options. These projects can also provide you with
a unique delivery method for supplemental materials.
Students can also generate their own projects and become
active participants in developing their own understanding
and sharing information with the rest of the class.
Overview
Individually or in teams of no more than four, conduct and
complete one multimedia project.
Address a topic through the use of multiple forms of media
The focus of the project will be open to you or your teams to
decide, but should have an educational focus that is related to
your subject area(s).
Your intended audience is your future classroom, so plan and
design accordingly. Topics must be approved by your
instructor ahead of time.
Deliverables
The final deliverable should have a maximum running time
of five (5) minutes. (3-5 minutes)
Each individual or group will introduce their project to the
class, present the deliverable, and answer questions
afterwards
Details
The project should include a title portion (screen or
audio clip) with credits, “introduction” portions
between each section/segment (unless doing so works
counter to the design of your project), and a
conclusion/summary portion. The project should also
include relevant digital primary sources.
This project should not be a web page since we will be
covering that in another part of the class.
Examples
