The activities created for this program will be adapted from the curriculum developed by Adobe to teach digital communication skills in the context of the professional web design and development process, using Adobe web tools.
Phase one will be a clean substitution of graphic/digital elements from Shirod Younker’s art work and video collected from OIEA’s Oregon Indian Curriculum Committee into the Adobe curriculum.
Over the last few years, Adobe conducted research to identify the foundation skills students need to create effective communication using different digital media tools. Adobe met with educators and design professionals and surveyed businesses and educational institutions around the world. The research resulted in objectives that cover design, project planning, communication, and technology.
Phase two will be an evaluation of the Adobe curriculum and similar online technology classes offered at Western Oregon University in the context of the culture of Oregon’s diverse Native American population. This evaluation will align the "Instructional Design" between the coursed model on the text "Designing Effective Instruction" by Gary R Morrision, 2007, Wiley
