Next up: The Development phase. This step in the process was the most familiar to me, I just needed to find the right balance. Having spent years as a technology generalist, I am familiar with many multimedia tools and delivery formats (though acquiring a broad range of knowledge equates to limited time to master). This internship project gave me the opportunity to explore and apply new media and emerging technologies.
The challenge was to rethink learning activities. Could a learning objective be better met with a different delivery mode? Working with audio and video, I focused on creating RLOs - reusable learning objects . I also considered how to meet different learning styles by offering the same content in different formats.
I also knew I needed to focus on building a learning community by fostering student-2-student and student-2-instructor relationships. To accomplish this, I needed to set a welcoming tone with collaborative learning activities and open forums appropriately paced throughout the course.
