Abstract

As demand for quality education and information access increases, so does the need for personnel qualified in the design and delivery of informational, learning and instructional resources. This paper describes the development of the Bachelor of Multimedia (BMM) at Southern Cross University from a traditional on-campus program to one embracing flexible and on-line delivery. The paper will focus on the technological infrastructure required to support the program, the resources required to deliver the program and the pedagogical issues associated with on-line delivery and student learning in the tertiary context. Included in the discussion are assessments of issues associated with internet-based access and delivery as well as usage statistics and student feedback.
