Multimedia in higher education

Multimedia technology in the future of education is a theme that dominates the recent literature of education and information technology. Higher education has not so far demonstrated a high degree of enthusiasm for multimedia, but this does not necessarily mean that multimedia has little to offer in this sector. To advance the use of multimedia technology, post-secondary teachers must be convinced of its relevance and practicality. Arguments, evidence, training, and facilities for multimedia instruction must be presented in forums that are accessible and convenient for the unconvinced.
