The End- A Final Thought!

A technological age is upon us; students are much more technologically advanced than past generations (Donlevey, 2005). The net generation, are quickly becoming innovators, shaping new communities and as a result are shaking up the traditional classroom, as we know it (Hendricks, 2004). As educators we must rise to the occasion keeping abreast of creative, innovative, authentic methods of delivering information to our 'tech savy' audiences. Multimedia is certainly one way to achieve that.

Thank you Diane for another wonderful learning experience. The readings, discussion and practical applications gained over the last few months are something that I will take with me, build upon and share in the months and years to come.
