KIND OF MEDIA IN THE CLASSROOM

Traditional Multimedia
  • One of the most common types of multimedia still remains the traditional form, using only a single content type--such as a video recording or DVD, a filmstrip, a slide show, or a piece of music. In many cases, these are still the most appropriate types of multimedia to help your students learn--a documentary film, for example, is a good way to bring information together in an engaging way that has been curated by experts.

Mixed Multimedia

  • Course materials can now be linked together with several types of multimedia, in a fashion that allows you to pick and choose what kinds are the most valuable to you. For example, if you were trying to teach your students about hortatory exposition text, you could put together a computer slide show presentation that blends an image of the overview of the text, an animation showing how develop idea in writing hortatory text, and  a YouTube video of someone performing a demonstration that illustrates how to write hortatory exposition.
