Features: Based on the principle of combining theory with practice, this book closely integrates the application of information technology and the development needs of educational informatization, introducing the basic principles, techniques, and methods of multimedia courseware design. The content of the book is divided into three parts: Basic, Development, and Advanced.
The Basic Part consists of 4 chapters, primarily introducing the concept of computer-assisted instruction with multimedia, the learning theories that serve as the basis for multimedia courseware design, the methods and steps for developing multimedia courseware systems, and the basic methods for collecting and editing multimedia information materials.
The Development Part consists of 9 chapters, mainly using Authorware 7.0 as the courseware development environment to introduce the specific methods and techniques for developing and creating common structural types and basic teaching models corresponding to each teaching unit and segment in multimedia courseware.
The Advanced Part includes 2 chapters, focusing on system variables, functions, advanced programming, and techniques and methods for developing challenging teaching segments in courseware.
Each chapter begins with clear learning objectives and ends with "Thoughts and Exercises" closely tied to the chapter content. The accompanying CD-ROM contains all the example source code files and multimedia materials used in the book.
