3 things to be considered in our discussion ;

Using e-learning system :
          a) digital slide show presentations
          b) video recording of lecture session
Using Internet video broadcasting systems
Using video conferencing tools to establish combine technology augmented classroom teaching with distance education.




2.What educational multimedia system do you think is effective and cost-effective and why?

Distance educational system. (E-learning)
Because distance education extends the period for each classes offered at regular universities.
It is cost effective because due to increasing performance and dropping prices on traditional computing  devices (e.g.  desktop PCs, laptops, and data projectors).

For distance education use, computer-generated slides may be printed out or put onto web sites, so that students do not have to copy the content for later recall.
Student can also refer to the content in the websites at any where and any time they prefer.

3.Suggest and justify an appropriate educational multimedia system that can be used in your school for teaching and learning. 

a)Educational Blogs.
b)Audio recorded for text reading comprehension- how to pronounce & tone the words. – Can be used in English lesson.
c)Visualize a photosynthesis process by flash – Can be use in Science.
d)Add topic discussion in a closed Facebook Group or blogs between teachers and students.
e)Website for students to access their lecture notes or homeworks.

Week 1 - What is Multimedia?

Assalam and hi everybody.

Today is 10th Of September 2012. This is my first class in MPT1203 located at C14-420(01), UTM Skudai. As a second semester student in Master Of Education (Education Technology), I'm slowly get to know my business here and I hope I can manage my time schedule as I'm a teacher during morning whilst student in the afternoon.

The first thing when we get into the class was a question,

"What is multimedia?"

Multimedia is media and content that uses a combination of different content forms. It is describing a medium as having multiple content forms. The term is used to differentiate the media which use only rudimentary computer display such as text-only, or traditional forms of printed or hand-produced material. Multimedia includes a combination of text, audio, still images, animation, video, or interactivity content forms.
