The Interpretive Zone between Software Designers and a Science Educator: Grounding Instructional Multimedia Design in Learning Theory.
Rodrigues, Susan
Journal of Research on Computing in Education, v33 n1 p1-15 Fall 2000
Provides insight into the interpretative process between instructional designers' practice and a science educator's requirements. Suggests that grounding multimedia design in constructivist philosophy is problematic for two main reasons: interpretation and shared understanding of terms, and limits with respect to the technology. Reports a collaborative venture, guided by constructivist philosophy, between researchers and designers in producing a CD-ROM for 14- and 15-year-old students. (Contains 18 references.) (AEF)
