Abstract: | ABSTRACT This paper addresses the concern that much educational multimedia is currently based upon technology rather than sound educational principles. The Strategic Teaching Frameworks (STFs) is a constructivist instructional strategy informed by two theories: anchored instruction and cognitive flexibility. This was deployed in the development of a CD‐ROM in an Australian University. The paper describes the development of a STF prototype and provides the reasoning behind decisions that had to be made. The authors outline some of the problems involved in their study and suggest implications for the use of STFs for teacher education and in the production of multimedia. |
