Abstract
The increasing expansion and demand for distance learning course offerings has forced faculty to examine how to transform their traditional lecture content into multimedia content. (Mandernach, 2009). Research indicates that content-specific and pedagogically-intentional online multimedia is a valuable resource that can facilitate student learning based on a number of factors, one being the positive level of student satisfaction it generates. The present qualitative and quantitative empirical study analyzes strategies that can be employed in the development of multimedia that will improve the level of satisfaction the online students experience in navigating their way through a class.
