Artifact – EDCI 57200 – Group Project – Primo Overview Workshop<\/a><\/p>\n One of the\u00a0challenges of the project featured in the artifact was based in determining how advanced the instructions should be.\u00a0 There were dozens of elements to Primo that were not included for the sake of brevity.\u00a0 As indicated by Ritzhaupt, Martin, & Daniels (2010), multimedia technology can be used to integrate different media forms.\u00a0 It may have been beneficial to mention how a side by side tutorial could be created allowing the participant to point and click along with the tutorial.<\/p>\n Executing the side by side option may be more effective as it demonstrates chronological instruction.\u00a0 For instance, a sequential learner will prefer learning things step-by-step with a stream of progressing material (Hawk 2007).\u00a0 However, this may be referencing unnecessary specificity as the overview is indented for a diverse learning audience.\u00a0 There was a rudimentary challenge in creating the tutorial, in that many steps seemed too basic or even too obvious to require explanation, such as clicking the search button.\u00a0 This could have been remedied via the use of a video tutorial instead of slides. \u00a0However, the fact that this was recognized indicates that if actual execution of the project was warranted, the video factor would have been pursued with more zeal.<\/p>\n Working within a group to develop a mock program synthesis blends ideas on how certain elements of educational technology may be disseminated to a wide audience.\u00a0 By referring to multiple ideas, a group can encapsulate multiple ideas into a single project and also form a consensus on the most beneficial ideas overall.\u00a0 This was demonstrated in a mock workshop created by a group of students in EDCI572.\u00a0 The intent was to create a tutorial for students to refer to when they perform searches within the Purdue Library online (Primo).<\/p>\n Portraying the project as having a meaningful utilitarian purpose came with the mentioning of how it saved time for the library staff.\u00a0 Librarians could spend less time showing students how to use the search engine as the program itself would supplement this need. While this may indicate that establishing a need for a tutorial is required before development, it should not rule out an instructional designer’s call to be proactive as well.<\/p>\n References:<\/strong><\/p>\n Ali, Croft, Miehl, Oberlin.\u00a0 (2013).
