- Course objectives
- (Interactive) Multimedia is a technology with the potential to change the way people learn, acquire information, and entertain themselves. This technology brings together a range of fields and requires the skills of professionals from those fields. New technology is being used more and more in education and providers have to be aware of what is available and how it can be used. This practical course demonstrates how interactive multimedia can be developed for educational applications in Geography.
This course aims to improve and develop the ICT skills and competencies of Geography students and to improve the quality of the material they produce for class. The course will also assist future geography teachers to integrate ICT into their teaching. - Syllabus
