VCT 566: Principles of Multimedia Production

Project Plan

Plan Overview

The History of Project Management/Collaboration tools to enhance workflow. Myoverall target audience is focused on upper level high school students through beginning

graduate school students. The audience I selected is somewhat broad although the overall

content delivery should suffice for these target groups.

Content Research

The following resources and articles will be used to derive the content for this interactivelearning module (additional resources may be utilized throughout development and will

be included in the final documentation of the learning module):

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_management http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_project_management_software

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pert_chart

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gantt_chart

Audience Analysis

The target audience as noted above briefly is upper level high school studentsthrough students beginning their graduate level (masters) programs. The reason my target

audience is so large is because the information in this module can be delivered to any of

the age groups in the range. The material is also pertinent to different groups pending on

what your specific school curriculum expects at a certain time, so many students may ormay not come into contact with this module until later in their education programs.

Scope

The learning module will include a brief history of the basics of project

management (purpose, gantt charts, pert charts, etc.). Additionally it will includeresources and tools and how to implement them to enhance collaboration and group

work. The module will finish with an assessment of the learners knowledge (and tie into

the learning outcomes discussed below).

The content in the module will be delivered through various mechanisms.

Currently I intend on utilizing the following: Moodle, Moodle Wiki (possibly),Podcasts/Vodcasts/Screencasts (or some implementation of all three of these together), aswell as possibly some more interactive elements such as Flash/AJAX or some

implementation to enhance the interactivity of the module with the learner.
