Blending Theoretical and Practical Experiences for a Multimedia Development Graduate

Fauzy Wan

Universiti Sains Malaysia, Malaysia

The Center of Instructional Technology and Multimedia at the Universiti Sains Malaysia (Science Uni-versity of

Malaysia) has for the past three years conducted a Multimedia Development course for the Masters of Education

program. This paper will present experiences and opinions from both the instruc-tor’s and students’ of the course.

The course objective is to provide both theoretical and practical experi-ences in Multimedia Courseware

development to be used in the classroom or training facilities. Students are required to submit a four-research article

review as well as produce two-multimedia courseware as their practical component for the course. They are also

required to undertake a final examination. From the evaluation and assessment of the course the students are very

positive in the experiences that they have undergone and their major complaint is a lack of time to complete the

practical component of the course. The instructor utilized PowerPoint and Microsoft Publisher as the introductory

software for Mul-timedia and Web Page development.
