Synopsis
Make sure your multimedia projects are pedagogically sound and address curriculum standards by using the proven principles and guidelines in this “field guide” for K–12 teachers.
Weaving together the perspectives of teachers, researchers, and staff of the award-winning Challenge 2000 Multimedia Project and the WEB project, the authors address teaching and learning issues central to successful technology projects, such as
- ? Why helping students produce multimedia presentations is an effective way to teach required academic content
? How to connect multimedia projects to real-world contexts
? Basic steps to planning and assessing projects and how much time to allow for each step
? How to prevent technology and financial problems from eclipsing learning goals
