The production of modern and dynamic advertising, web content, learning and teaching materials, information sources and games relies entirely on Computer-based Multimedia design.
In this course, students will be introduced to Adobe design software.
They will use a variety of tools to plan, design, implement and evaluate their projects and will be able to publish their work in a number of formats.
This unit in programming is designed to develop student skills in solving information problems, as well as giving them greater control over their use of computers as tools.
It is seen as important to equip interested students with skills in using a major programming language. It allows for the development of solutions to information problems of varying complexity, whilst at the same time, providing the stages of planning, design, construction and evaluation that are required in the study of any discipline involving technology.
The course is open ended in that it allows students to develop skills at their own pace and to extend these skills through their major individual projects. The programming tasks for this unit have a focus of computer gaming.
