Instructional Multimedia: Curriculum, Professional, and Educational Materials Development for Science, Mathematics, and Technology

该项目使巴尔的摩县和周边地区的中学教师和大学教师能够有效地将计算机技术融入课堂。活动包括：（1）扩大目前NSF资助的信息和多媒体技术（IMMT）计划（NSF奖号9950056），包括一个新的教学多媒体课程，为有兴趣熟练使用多媒体技术的教育工作者提供证书选项，为他们的教室创建有效的互动学习材料;（2）提供为期两周的课堂多媒体技术应用强化体验，以发展在职中学教师和大学教师在科学、数学和技术领域的技术能力，（3）在加中文化中心埃塞克斯设立一个新的数码影音电脑制作实验室，以支援新的教学多媒体证书课程，并让参与计划的人士能够为他们的教室开发多媒体学习活动（小型电脑或网上动画及互动应用软件）。开发的教材结合了国家科学、数学、技术和行业教育标准。CCBC埃塞克斯的科学、数学和技术教师正在与巴尔的摩县公立学校的教师和管理人员、在工作场所使用多媒体的企业的专业人员合作，开发教学设计和技术课程（包括Apropos Media、BreakAway Games和System Source），以及马里兰州圣母大学的教师。至少有四个新的学分课程正在开发的传统和在线交付：在计算机时代的道德责任，管理学习与技术，教育技术过程和在线课程管理。

This project is enabling secondary school teachers and college faculty in Baltimore County and the surrounding region to effectively integrate computer technology into their classrooms. Activities include:(1) expanding the current NSF-funded Information and Multimedia Technology (IMMT) program (NSF Award No. 9950056) to include a new Instructional Multimedia curriculum with a certificate option for educators interested in becoming proficient in using multimedia technology to create effective interactive learning materials for their classrooms;(2) providing two-week intensive experiences in classroom multimedia technology applications to develop the technological currency of in-service secondary school teachers and college faculty in science, mathematics, and technology fields, and to prepare in-service technology teachers to teach articulated multimedia technology courses at secondary schools; and(3) creating a new digital audio/video computer production laboratory at CCBC Essex to support the new Instructional Multimedia certificate option and to enable project participants to develop Multimedia Learning Activities (MLAs) (small computer- or Web-based animations and interactive applications) for their classrooms. The developed materials incorporate national science, mathematics, technology, and industry standards in education.Science, mathematics, and technology faculty from CCBC Essex are developing instructional design and technology courses in collaboration with teachers and administrators from the Baltimore County Public Schools, professionals from businesses that use multimedia in the workplace (including Apropos Media, BreakAway Games, and System Source), and faculty from the College of Notre Dame of Maryland. At least four new credit courses are being developed for both traditional and online delivery: Ethical Responsibilities in the Computer Age, Managing Learning with Technology, Educational Technology Process, and Online Course Management.
