Synopsis This unit focuses on the production, or 'putting together', of a multimedia project. Students begin by developing content for the project completed in DIS2905. Students are encouraged, to work in groups, with each student being responsible for specific, yet various, aspects of the production. As much as possible, students' preferences will be catered for. A completed multimedia project is the expected outcome of this unit. All students are involved in the analysis and assessment of completed projects. It also equips students with the skills and experience required for DIS3702. The course is delivered through small group sessions of fifteen students per group.
