  • Using the Design, Decide, Develop-Evaluate (DDD-E) model, the authors present practical outlines for implementing multimedia projects in grades 4-12. Visuals and reproducible worksheets cover organizing projects, flowcharts, storyboards, design guidelines, and using images. Sample projects are given for using multimedia documents, slide shows, Web-page production, hypermedia programs, digital-video programs, and various presentation tools.

  • [T]hese authors do it right. They expect learners to do major research on a question, go through a thorough design phase, and provide guidance for the various technologies, tht the teacher-librarian offers. At each step, the authors provide assessment rubrics to ensure that process and content learning are going on. No cut, paste, and present here; rather, the reader finds deep understanding followed by well-developed presentations in a variety of formations that cover the full spectrum of video, audio, web, and digital photography. The strategies are provided to implement a program of solid multimedia presentations that support and expand learning....Highly recommended, particularly for upper-elementary through high school teacher-librarians.
    —Teacher Librarian     October 2006
Description: Building on the materials in the two previous successful editions, Multimedia Projects in Education, Third Edition features approximately 40% all new material and updates the previous information. The authors use the DDD-E model (Decide, Design, Develop, Evaluate) to show how to select and plan multimedia projects, use presentation and development tools, manage graphics, audio, and digital video, create Web pages, and evaluate student work. Project suggestions come complete with scenario, an overview, topics, and reproducible worksheets, and can be easily adapted for different grade levels. Helpful assessment rubrics are included for projects. Teachers and library media specialists will enjoy this hands-on practical approach to implementing multimedia into their everyday classroom practice.
