Multimedia-based Instructional Design: Computer-Based Training; Web-Based Training; Distance Broadcast Training; Performance-Based Solutions, Second Edition

by William W. Lee, Diana L. Owens

Multimedia-Based Instructional Design is a thoroughly revised and updated second edition of the best-selling book that provided a complete guide to designing and developing interactive multimedia training. While most training companies develop their training programs in many different technological delivery media—computer-based, web-based, and distance learning technologies—this unique book demonstrates that the same instructional design process can be used for all media. Using just one process reduces cycle time for course development—and also reduces costs.

Pretty straightforward and common sense, but good for delineating process of developing multimedia instructional design materials. Tables are especially helpful. One consideration is the publication date of the edition I read: 2000. Several assumptions/statements concerning multimedia and web-based delivery are generally not concerns, at least for most those in areas with decent bandwidth and current operating systems. Of course, this does not address mobile apps/ tablet design due to date of publication. Still, concepts are still generally practical and helpful.
