Powerful multimedia authoring tools now becoming available permit engineering educators to develop multimedia courseware with much less effort than ever before. Without familiarity with the principles of instruction design, it is easy for engineering educators to run amuck and produce ineffective multimedia instructional materials. The goal of this workshop is to instruct 30 educators who teach engineering or pre-engineering the basics of instructional design, particularly as applied to multimedia instructional materials in engineering. The workshop sessions will be taught largely by an experienced instructional designer who is also experienced in teaching mathematics and science in the classroom, as well as commercial courses in multimedia instructional design. SIMPLE, a powerful but easy-to-use software construction environment developed with partial support from an NSF Course and Curriculum Development Project, will serve as one of the tools. Multimedia courseware from the NSF-supported coalitions will be introduced as examples. The workshop team consists of members from ExperTech, a small software company, Amarillo College, a two year institution, and Texas Tech University, a doctoral institution. The team members will interact extensively with the participants throughout the 2-year period by means of a special mailing list on the Internet. Besides communication at conferences, an FTP site on the Internet will permit easy distribution of developed software. The workshop participants will be instructed in the basics of evaluation methodologies throughout the workshop so that they can effectively evaluate the courseware they use or develop.

功能强大的多媒体创作工具现在变得可用，使得工程教育工作者比以前更容易地开发多媒体课件。如果不熟悉教学设计的原则，工程教育工作者很容易胡作非为，制作出无效的多媒体教学材料。本次研讨会的目标是指导30位教授工程或预工程教学设计基础知识的教育工作者，特别是应用于工程多媒体教学材料的教育工作者。工作坊将主要由经验丰富的教学设计师教授，他在课堂上教授数学和科学以及多媒体教学设计的商业课程方面也有经验。SIMPLE是一个功能强大但易于使用的软件构建环境，在NSF课程和课程开发项目的部分支持下开发，将作为工具之一。本文将以美国国家科学基金会支持的联盟的多媒体课件为例进行介绍。研讨会小组由来自小型软件公司ExperTech、两年制机构Amarillo College和博士机构Texas Tech University的成员组成。在两年的时间里，团队成员将通过互联网上的特殊邮件列表与参与者进行广泛的互动。除了会议上的交流，因特网上的FTP站点还可以方便地分发已开发的软件。研讨会参与者将在整个研讨会中学习评估方法的基础知识，以便他们能够有效地评估他们使用或开发的课件。
