This course will examine the means by which educators can transform a traditional teacher-centered classroom into a student-focused learning environment using multimedia technologies. These technologies will be applied to the acquisition, analysis, construction, and presentation of knowledge.

Multiple intelligences, learning preferences and alternative assessments will be addressed.
