Implementation of design and learning theories in multimedia courseware development: Lines & Planes in 3-Dimensions

Multimedia courseware is already a well known tool for teaching and assisting students in learning. An effective courseware is actually a product of excellent pre-development processes. Hence, understanding the required design and learning theories are crucial before developing the courseware. This paper presents the theories of multimedia courseware design which are layout design, usage of media elements and related learning theories. ADDIE model and tools being used in the development phase are also discussed. The prototype based on identified theories is presented as the result in this study.
