Upon continuing this unit, the following resonated with me:
When building a multimedia activity, it is important to include an interactive activity after 5 or 6 screens. In this manner you can asses formatively the students' progress and bring their focus back to what's important. It also allows a moment to "change the water on the beans" so students continue to stay motivated!
The Apple Learning Interchange looks like a very good resource. I’m looking forward to spending more time checking it out. Apple always provides information of the highest quality and creativity and always seem to have educators in mind. Podcasta allow me to multi-task while listening, so that is always a big advantage to a resource in my mind!
The E-Learning Site Usability Checklist as posted in the course content looks to be very relevant and complete. I will try and make the effort to apply this checklist to our own site. I think there's a lot of little things there that can be easily taken for granted. I hope we don't!
