This short workshop will showcase two readily available tools that anyone can use to create their own multimedia elements to use in their online courses. First, we will explore Canva (canva.com) which puts the ability to digitally design in the hands of everyone. Using Canva, faculty, instructional designers, and students can create graphics for banners, blog posts, infographics, logos, PowerPoint presentations and more. In this workshop, we will walk through the process of creating a simple graphic such as a banner or presentation graphic. From there, we look at how quick and simple it is to put everything together in a logical and beautiful package using the e-learning development tool Articulate 360. A tool like Articulate 360 takes all of the technical parts of coding and developing and gives instructional designers and content experts the freedom to combine multiple resources together with short quizzes and other interactive elements to create a single module for an online course. With a little extra time and assistance, faculty can take their content from Articulate and export it into a format that will connect with their learning management system to make an assessment and the grading a breeze.
After this workshop, you will be able to:
- create a simple graphic in Canva.
- construct an infographic using Canva.
- design a digital learning module with a built-in assessment.
