Tools
- Adobe Dreamweaver (or other Web site management software for posting assignments).
- Students planning to develop their Individualized Instruction project as CBT will need Adobe Captivate, A free account on Udutu, or Adobe Flash.
Other Resources
- A Web account to post your projects. Be sure you have an account that allows you to use FTP (File Transfer Protocol). For example, Yahoo/Geocities free accounts, which are fine for email, do not allow FTP. You have to pay extra for that. If in doubt, we recommend using a free SDSU Rohan account (see your SDSU WebPortal).
