Decades of research demonstrate that well-designed multimedia increases retention, engagement, and long-term information encoding. The research emphasizes "well-designed" multimedia for a reason - design choices matter. 

This workshop explores both research-based design principles and practical applications for building multimedia and interactivity for learning and incorporating them into your assignments, using accessible, inexpensive tools. By the workshop's conclusion, you will have created several multimedia and interactive learning objects and developed a strategic plan for their effective implementation in your teaching. 

Workshop Learning Outcomes:

  • Apply Cognitive Load Theory, Dual Coding principles and Mayer’s Principles of Multimedia Design to evaluate and improve multimedia learning materials 

  • Design multimedia learning objects that align with research-based principles for optimal learning  

  • Create multimedia content that meets accessibility standards and accommodates diverse learning needs 

  • Develop interactive learning experiences that foster active engagement and meaningful student participation aligned with Merrill’s Principles of Instruction 

  • Identify strategic opportunities for multimedia and interactivity integration into a course design 

  • Establish sustainable workflows for creating, implementing, maintaining and improving multimedia content  

*This workshop qualifies as an elective for the Certificate in University Teaching and Learning (CUTL) for those participants who are interested in completing the certificate. Contact the facilitator for details on how to earn credit.​
