Research Method Design Tool

The Research Method Design (RMD) Tool was created to support the educational research track of the MAT-SE Online! program. The project was funded as part of the MAT-SE Online! program awarded to Dr Nix.

Dr Rebekah K Nix worked with Dr Cynthia E Ledbetter and the UT-System TeleCampus team to design, create, produce, and use an interactive across all three courses. It was made available to students after graduation and shared with other campuses that rebranded the logo for their own use. Unfortunately, the Flash animations are not working now, so I have created a PDF rendition of the components that were available online within the self-contained reusable content object.

The following main screen captures suggest how the interface works. Entry options included 'determine', select', 'confirm', and 'review' to reiterate the course sequence. What you cannot view is the Q/A series that leads to a particular Research Method. The RMD Tool was based on a comprehensive Y/N flowchart developed by Dr Nix for explaining the product goals for the UTTC designers. I have created a PDF of the actual design document that was delivered to UTTC to give an idea of how it as set up.
