III. OUTCOMES AND ASSESSMENTS
1. COURSE OUTCOMES/OBJECTIVES:
List the primary instructional objectives of the class. Formulate some of them in terms of specific measurable student

student will be able to:
1.
Run and analyze digital media projects in terms of design, storyboard, content, and purpose;

Design digital media projects using problem solving methods, design concepts, and storyboard;
3.
Create well designed small digital media projects using digital media hardware, software, and pre-made videos,
sounds, and artwork on CD-ROMS.

anticipate and/or define problems, formulate and assess solutions, apply principles to new situations, etc.
1.
Students will use problem solving techniques and good design concepts to create first a storyboard and then
create a digital media application for a specific problem.
2.
Students will also analyze pre-written digital media applications in terms of design, content and purpose.
