I took the course IM (Information Media) 555 from St. Cloud State University, Design and Presentation of Multimedia Presentations, fall semester. This was an intensive eight week online course in which design principles and visual principles were taught and practiced by creating projects using various media. We used Creative Commons images to create visuals for presentations, modified graphics to fit our final projects, read journals about the topic and wrote a research paper on it, made videos using screen casting, created infographic posters, and presented multiple projects through D2L to other classmates.
