Getting Started with Digital Learning Objects

Abstract

This seminar will introduce attendees to digital learning objects, such as videos, online tutorials, and interactive modules. Presenters will walk attendees through the basics of instructional design for DLOs, highlighting tools, platforms, and methods attendees might use—including a series of guiding questions to help attendees determine for themselves how best to take an object from concept to execution. The presenters will deconstruct successful example objects and discuss their experiences with the benefits and challenges of DLO creation. Those new to digital object creation and/or people who feel lost or overwhelmed by the development process are especially encouraged to attend!
