Software Resources

Here are some programs that you can download that might help you in analyzing and designing the instructional product for this course. Please note that some of them are shareware, which means that you are expected to pay for them after a reasonable opportunity to try them out. In general, I would say that this course would constitute the tryout. If you continue to use the program after the course is over, then you should pay for it. As software goes, these programs are not very expensive.
