Introduction and Purpose
As technology advances and hardware and software improves, it becomes much more feasible to integrate multimedia directly into classroom activities and the core curriculum. Understanding why, when, and where multimedia is appropriate and beneficial is the first step toward successful implementation.

Implementing multimedia activities into the classroom requires careful planning. This course uses the DDD-E Model (Decide/Design/Deliver and Evaluate) as a guide for teachers.
