I am excited to conclude my Graduate Certificate in Educational Technology with ELRC 7505: Design and Development of Multimedia Learning. This intensive, five-week asynchronous course explores both the conceptual understanding and practical skills required to design highly effective digital learning environments.

The key learning objectives for this course include:

• Engaging with core multimedia learning principles outlined by Clark and Mayer (2016) and the Cambridge Handbook of Multimedia Learning (2022).

• Applying evidence-based principles to the design and analysis of multimedia learning artifacts.

• Critically reflecting on design choices made by humans and AI tools alike.

• Cultivating the judgment to recognize when AI misapplies multimedia principles and learning to use it thoughtfully as a collaborator.

This portfolio will house all of my assignments and reflections from the course, showcasing my growing expertise in analyzing and creating meaningful multimedia learning experiences.
