Faculty Development
Instructional Video Production
Instructional media development and delivery require selecting suitable institutional technologies, employing effective multimedia strategies, developing engaging and accessible content aligned with learning objectives, adapting materials to emerging technologies, integrating media within course components, and leveraging platforms like MediaSpace for production and delivery.
Effective multimedia strategies include chunking content into manageable segments, using visuals and audio to enhance understanding, and ensuring accessibility through closed captioning. Engaging multimedia content like videos, audio files, and presentations should meet diverse learning needs and clearly align with objectives.
