Abstract
This chapter reports on a project that was carried out to assist instructors who were new to the use of technology to design and deliver technology-based lessons using the Rapid Prototyping Instructional Design Model as a guide. The results of the project reported an increase in the instructors’ confidence in using technology as they continued with the project. Soliciting feedback on the lessons encouraged students to participate more in their learning. The feedback was also used to inform the designs of the subsequent lessons.
