Title: Going SPLAT! - Building a multimedia educational resource for physics learners
Abstract: Physics has an image of being both `difficult' and `boring'. This paper describes the development of SPLAT, an enjoyable multimedia educational resource for one of the topics that learners find particularly difficult. The developer was an experienced physics teacher who had no prior experience of using multimedia authoring tools. SPLAT can be used in schools, colleges and homes to increase learners' under- standing of the fundamental concepts of projectile motion. This paper gives details of the context within which SPLAT was developed, the processes of design and implementation of the educational resource and the evaluation of the resource by learners. Information concerning SPLAT's availability is provided.
