LESSON 15: PROJECT-BASED LEARNING AND MULTIMEDIA: WHAT IT IS?

   LESSON 15:

 PROJECT-BASED LEARNING AND MULTIMEDIA: WHAT IT IS?

Project-based multimedia learning is most of all anchored on the core curriculum. This means that based multimedia learning addresses the basic knowledge and skills all students are expected to acquire as laid down in the minimum competencies of the basic education curriculum.

When using the project-based multimedia learning, teachers face additional assessment challenges because multimedia products by themselves do not represent a full picture of student learning. In multimedia projects, students do not learn simply by using multimedia produced by others, they learn by creating it themselves.

It does not only involve the use of multimedia learning. The students end up with a multimedia product to show what they have learned. So they are not only learners of academic content, they are at the same time authors of the multimedia product at the end of the learning process. 

The students work collaboratively over an extended time frame. As they work, they employ life skills including decision making. Their learning task ends up with a multimedia presentation through their multimedia product.
