This certificate program in technology enhanced learning (TEL) prepares students to use technology (computers and the Internet) to develop instructional materials for use in a wide range of educational and training contexts. The program is designed for K-12 teachers, higher education instructors, corporate trainers, and other professionals interested in using technology to support instruction. Coursework focuses primarily on production and design of electronic educational software for use in education and training contexts. Courses are offered at the University of Minnesota at a variety of times, including late afternoons and Saturdays. Courses are also offered during the summer and, occasionally, at off-campus sites. The multimedia design and development program is one of three TEL certificates offered by the college's Department of Curriculum and Instruction (C&I). TEL certificates in K-12 technology integration and online distance learning are also available. Because TEL certificate requirements can be incorporated into the master of education (M.Ed.)/professional studies program in learning technologies, students can earn a certificate while earning the M.Ed. degree. However, students not admitted to the M.Ed. program can earn a certificate separately. This program is available partially online. Depending on the semester and preference of the learner, between 30 to 50 percent of the program is available online.
