In this age of video games and flashy graphics with lots of built-in user-aids, people have come to expect a lot from interactive instructional programs. When, how, and to what extent should we invest in instructional interactivity?
David Castillo of Karta Technologies will be our August presenter. His topic will be "Using the Levels of Interactivity Framework to Guide Your Interactive Development Decisions". Drawing from his years of experience producing interactive courseware, David will introduce the concept of "Levels of Interactivity" framework in guiding decisions about designing interaction into development of instructional courseware.
David's objectives for this presentation are:
* to use the levels of interactivity framework to make better decisions about what level of interactivity to use, and
* to most efficiently allocate limited resources to achieve interactivity across the different learning modes.
Hey Folks!
