One of the most prominent things I learned and built on each week, was the importance of "how" content is presented. The type of media used, how it supports with the content, and the how the learner experiences it are all important things the designer must consider. Previous to this course, I had learned about the interaction between content and the presentation, but never specific to the types of media used. What I have learned about multimedia technology along with what I learned in cognitive psychology, will help me to develop better instruction no matter the instructional setting (web-based or traditional classroom). A large factor in web-based instructional design vs. classroom-based is the opportunity for teacher/student interaction and feedback during instruction. In web-based students can't ask questions or clarify information immediately (as in the classroom). This places greater importance on the design of instruction and its thoroughness and clarity.
