An important educational philosophy we keep in mind is: to use variety, by utilizing various medias within education so knowledge is embodied. The idea of using multi-media is: media and content that uses a combination of diverse content forms, this content is transformed into dynamic learning activities and resources that make-up your Certification. Digital media (video, audio, etc.) is the backbone-content used in your Certification; this is the primary means to exchange knowledge in your education. 1 P a g e w w w.
