Co-creation Framework for enhancing and promoting Media and Learning Design in Higher Education. Download ⤵️

• The Framework describes 5 steps to make qualitative educational multimedia. This document gives you a quick introduction into the framework and adds some context on how to use it. To empower you in integrating this model into your daily practice, we’ve created two additional resources, referred to as the ‘handbook’ and the ‘workbook.’
• The handbook provides you with concrete scenarios and insights to aid you in producing multimedia. Utilise it as a companion that guides you through every step of producing educational multimedia. The structure of this handbook follows the five phases established in the co-creation framework. For each of the first four phases, you could hold a meeting of approximately 2 hours and fill them in with the scenarios described in this handbook. The fifth phase, the production phase, is less predictable. This handbook gathers some tips and advice for that phase, but lacks timing and scenarios.
• The workbook follows the five-step structure established in the co-creation framework, aiding in the documentation of multimedia product progress. Each step includes questions, input fields, checkboxes, and tables. Additionally, there’s a companion handbook offering concrete scenarios and insights for multimedia production. While the workbook can be used independently, both resources are tailored for those responsible for educational multimedia in higher education. The flexibility of usage allows users to decide the extent to which they adhere to the guidelines, whether closely following for initial projects or selectively incorporating insights for subsequent productions.

In the ever-evolving field of education and training, innovative approaches to teaching and learning are essential. The Media Production Resources Hub is designed to support a diverse community of professionals, including educators, media producers, learning designers, and instructional technologists, in creating and utilizing media to enhance learning experiences. Whether you are crafting engaging learning experiences, designing cutting-edge learning spaces, producing impactful media content, or developing new applications, the Hub offers a wealth of resources, tools, and inspiration to support your work. We invite you to contribute resources that you consider useful —such as video tutorials, interactive learning objects, research papers, or other materials—to the Hub. Your contributions can inspire and assist others while also showcasing your expertise.
