Master of Science in Instructional Technology
Innovative Course
Graduate students from the Master of Science in Instructional Technology are producing Instructional Games for one of their graduate classes. Recently they presented their first prototype of their Instructional Games. The course, Instructional Game Development, was developed by Dr. Celina Byers fall of 2005 as a response to a direct request from the department's Corporate Advisory Council. Since the fall of 2007, Dr. Byers has been offering the course online.
This course examines the theory and practice of instructional game design. Students conduct a needs analysis, produce design documents, produce prototypes, acquire client signoffs, and produce a self-contained instructional game.
