Discussion Points

An important part of this class is exploring various formats of instructional materials.  It's important to understand the nature of many different formats, because people learn through different modalities and styles.  In order to meet the needs of the diverse populations we might serve, we will explore information in these multiple and varied formats. This works best if each student chooses one particular type to demonstrate and describe.
