Abstract
AbstractTechnology is developing quickly. Multimedia, a form of technology, is being used as a teaching tool these days. Many researchers and educators have found suitable ways to design multimedia applications in order to achieve fruitful educational outcomes. Not that all we are going to discuss here, the definition of multimedia, and the connection between multimedia and learning tools, concept of multimedia applications, how they are formed using a different media, the type of educational element that effect to learn in their natural environment and the real-world issues. The definitions and characteristics of multimedia and educational elements are explained in this article.
Highlights
In the education field, we use audio, video, slides, overhead transparencies, etc., to assist in the teaching process inside the classroom
A good multimedia learning application can be develop based on cognitive objectives, which are focus on and compare different levels of learning of topics
Multimedia can be use as an efficient learning tool, as it usually helps to increase the motivation of its users and enhance the interaction between the multimedia application and its users
Summary
We use audio, video, slides, overhead transparencies, etc., to assist in the teaching process inside the classroom. Multimedia is an interactive as well as educational tool. The objective of using multimedia as an educational tool is not to eliminate the teacher from the classroom; rather, it is just a tool, which makes it easier for both students and teachers to learn as well as teach particular subjects. Multimedia tools include welldesigned programs that simulate the teacher’s role by adding various educational elements to the cognitive process. As there are numerous media choices available to choose from, it is important that developers of these instructional multimedia applications use appropriate elements for their applications. We will discuss theories, which can be use to build a proper guidance system for developers to build and select the proper elements to build multimedia systems. We will review several different educational elements that can be used for educational purposes for multimedia systems
