Tutorials and Wizards assignment

Based on an idea submitted by Cristian Bazarian, you will work on the following assignment.

- Choose any of the topics that have been covered within our syllabus and develop a step-by-step tutorial using Powerpoint that would allow a learner to acquire the skills and knowledge needed to fully develop the topic.
- Answer the following questions:
o How do you compare learning the conventional way with the tutorial experience? Summarize advantages and disadvantages.
o Are tutorials adequate for all topics or are they more apt for certain types of topics or skills? Give specific examples.
o Based on what you were able to research on the Internet, do you see tutorials and wizards gaining way into formal education and job training?
o What would you say are the essential characteristics of a good and effective tutorial?

You will be working in pairs on this asignment during today's and Friday's lessons. This assignment must be submitted to itgs.sass@gmail.com before the end of our class on Friday.
