Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

  • Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
  • For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

3.4.2 Start your media plan

Course subject(s) 3. Plan your course design

“In the process of trying to build connections between words and pictures, learners are able to create a deeper understanding than from words or pictures alone. “
Richard Mayer

Goal

In this activity, you will create the first part of your media plan for your online course. This plan will help you to get an overview of the media you need to create or find.

Description

Media is an important resource for learning. You can use video, images, text, textbooks and so on. You probably already have some materials you can use. But maybe you also need to create or find some new materials. This activity will help you to get an overview of all the media in your course. You will work in Step 2 of the course design template:

This is a screenshot of the Excel course design template. It includes 2 columns: Media Description and Media Type. The table is filled in with an example.

Task

  1. Open your course design template from the storyboarding activity.
  2. Identify which learning activities in Column B include the use of media
  3. Fill in the following columns:
    • G: a detailed description of the media that you will need for this learning element
    • H: select the corresponding media type from the drop-down menu. If you need help choosing, refer to the explanation in the box to the right of the table in the template

Note: Columns I and J will be used later in this course, when you start creating media and editing your course in Brightspace. You can leave them empty for now.
