What is OUD

This chapter considers social constructivism as an educational theory for the development of multimedia content to assist primary-care providers, particularly those in HIV clinics and other clinicians, and support staff involved in the care of patients with substance use disorders in better understanding the intake processes at the Methadone clinics. Main aspects of social constructivism with its focus on the collaborative and generative learning and the importance of a cultural and social context are elaborated within the framework of the multimedia design. A series of four videos were developed that feature interviews with patients who describe their experience on Methadone. In addition, medical providers and medical staff describe the intake procedures for Methadone. Also discussed is the instructional design process and the Bergman and Moore instructional design model that informed the design.
