The document outlines the initial planning steps for a project-based multimedia learning strategy. It lists 6 steps: 1) determine subject competencies and content addressed by the project, 2) estimate time needed versus available, 3) establish clear parameters and decision-making procedures, 4) set up collaborative work arrangements, 5) identify needed and available resources, and 6) plan assessment of student learning. Additional details are provided on goals and objectives, using available technology and time, and evaluating the project. Stages of the project and estimated times are also outlined.

2. You are planning for the school
year and convinced of the
benefits of a project-based
multimedia learning strategy,
you decide to use it in lessons
where you feel is most
appropriate. Enumerate the step
you have to undertake in your
initial planning.

3. 1. Go over the subject
competencies to determine
object and content that the
multimedia project will
address effectively.
2. Estimate how much time you
need to spend compared to
how much time available.

4. 3. Make clear and explicit
parameters and procedures
that must be observed in
decision making.
4. Set collaborative working
arrangement to enable
students share their
knowledge and skills to build
another strenghts.

5. 5. Determine what resources
you will need and what are
available.
6. Plan on how you will
measure what students
learn.

6. 1. Goals and Objectives
2. Resource availability
• Use technology students already
know.
• Use time outside the class wherever
possible
• Use special classes as extra time.
• Let students compose text and selct
and prepare graphics and sounds as
they plan.

7. 3. Clear and explicit procedures
on decision making
4. Plan on how to evaluate
learning

8. Before the project starts:
1. Create project description
and milestones.
