Abstract:
In contrast to methods common to collegiate settings that require large blocks of time, instruction in middle and high schools requires instructional strategies that effectively provide a survey of computer imaging in short time blocks. An instruction method called The Seven Keys serves as a template to teach the basics of computer illustration, desktop publishing, computer animation, video editing, and multimedia applications. It gives teachers tremendous flexibility in providing instruction that ensures creative exploration. This presention demonstrates the keys in a base application and showcases student work.
