Synopsis

Your one–instructional–design–fits–all solution!

Most training companies develop their training programs in many different technological delivery media, including computer–based, web–based, and distance learning technologies. This unique book demonstrates that the same instructional design process can be used for all media. Using just one process reduces cycle time for course development–and also reduces costs.

Multimedia–Based Instructional Design will provide you with:

A process that applies across–the–board to technology–based training of all kinds

A hands–on guide to a method of design that is accessible to professionals at all levels of technical expertise

A CD–ROM that includes job aids, tools, and worksheets that you can customize for your own use

No more going back to the drawing board every time a new medium is introduced. Once you have this design process in place, you′ll have the freedom to choose the delivery method that works best for you!

About this title

Review

"An essential handbook for anyone involved in the design, development, and implementation of multimedia training environments." (Francis M. Dwyer, professor, Instructional Systems Program, Pennsylvania State University)

"This book makes a compelling argument that all training–especially multimedia training–requires good planning, and I haven′t seen better planning tools anywhere in one package. I predict it will be thumb–worn by designers, developers, and deliverers of multimedia training who want to save front–And money and time." (Peter C. Vail, College of Continuing Education, University of Oklahoma)

From the Back Cover

A New Edition of the Book that Turned the Training World Upside Down

Just as the groundbreaking first edition of Multimedia–Based Instructional Design offered a complete guide to designing and developing interactive multimedia training, the second edition is filled with relevant new content, automated tools on the CD–ROM, updates on standards, and current case studies and demonstrations.

Praise for the second edition of Multimedia–Based Instructional Design

"Finally, the book I have longed for is on the shelf! The second edition of Multimedia–Based Instructional Design, by William W. Lee and Diana L. Owens, is strong on practice, grounded in proven theoretical principles, and chock–full of automated tools that make the instructional design process easy to learn and easy to apply."
–Angela Benson, assistant professor, Department of Human Resource Education, University of Illinois, Urbana–Champaign

"There are many books about the development of e–Learning but very few that answer the question ′How do I do it?′ This book provides many answers to that question in a way that demonstrates both the authors’ knowledge of development theory as well as their practical, real–world mastery."
–Thomas Toth, Certified Macromedia MX 2004 Developer; author, Technology for Trainers; and e–Learning designer and developer
