Orientaciones para diseñar Materiales didáctico multimedia

Current educational systems have the need to resort to technological means to improve the teaching - learning process. One of these means are multimedia didactic materials. But are they really effective, in order to achieve the objective for which they have been designed? Are they only content transmitters? How effective are they? We can affirm that for the design of multimedia materials, not only should we think about meeting short-term goals, but also if the results that will be achieved in the long term will have some effect on the integral formation of the person. Bearing these objectives clear, it is necessary that all didactic material comply with standards that guarantee effectiveness. Therefore, the teacher must know these standards and know how to use them. In this way, all multimedia didactic material should not be based on rote learning but should promote the construction of knowledge and research, thus fulfilling the functions of providing information, awakening interests, maintaining a continuous activity and interaction with materials, guiding the learning, promote it from the mistakes, since it should offer them the possibility of improving gradually; and finally should facilitate the evaluation and control of learning both individually and as a team. Therefore, the module is divided into four (4) sessions whose credible products in each session will enable it to be published in web 2.0 services and / or virtual learning platforms: In session 1, you will know the basic fundamentals on the subject and explore the various resources needed for the design, preparation and publication of multimedia didactic materials using software or web 2.0 services. In session 2, you will design, produce and publish textual and hypertextual content using web 2.0 software or services. In Session 3, you will explore various audio databases. You can also create your own audios or podcast using software and web 2.0 tools. In turn, credible products will be published in web 2.0 services. In session 4, you will explore and edit various video databases. Additionally, you will create your own webcast or videos using software and web 2.0 tools. In turn, credible products will be published on the Internet
