Web Resource, Multimedia, and Hypermedia are the growing trend in society. Everyone today has the opportunity to create a form of multimedia today. Our cell phones are now smart phones. We take pictures of everything and send to our friend, hypertext, hyperlinks, and video all the time. The world today operates in a multimedia format whether we like it or not.
Multimedia is becoming more a part of my life. When I volunteer at WUFT I am operating a camera that is sending live video, uploaded by a satellite to your home, so you can watch the 6:30 news. When I start taking production type classes and learn how to use different forms of multimedia. Creating fonts on the news cast to inform the people at home the name of the anchors or the names of the people in the story. I will have to edit videos for production using still pictures and video. This is the creativity that I am looking forward to learning when I get into my core classes for Telecommunications.
The lesson this week was very enlightening the Designing Instruction Media using the four key guidelines; Contrast, Repetition, Alignment, and Proximity. The power point templates that is bad to use. What background to use, the type of text to use. The information of what is a hypertext, multimedia and hyperlink are terms I have to know and use in Telecommunications. The exercise on the WTO website is something that will allow me to be more careful of sites that exist. Learning how to find the publisher of a website and history of a website will be something I use when doing research. It is amazing that there are so many tools out there for educators to use to in teaching our children. We will have to be more careful of the sites that our children use to conduct their homework. Web based resources are great tools to help your child learn in a fun environment. BrainPop is a site that an Assistant Principal told me to have my daughter use to help her with math. Multimedia will be used both critically and creatively when creating content for me. It is something that I use now, but will use more and more as I learn how to use more of the products that exist. Hypermedia is something that would be a great tool for teachers or even trainers in the business world to pass on information for people they are trying to educate about a product or new policies.
