Multimedia Presentations

Multimedia presentation software, such at Microsoft PowerPoint lets learners combine written word, content, graphics and sound in a multimedia presentation. Other media such as video recorders, digital camera, VCRs and television, allow the learners to get creative using an interactive format and presentation style.

Using multimedia presentations can be highly motivating, interesting and visual to the user. A television, VCR and videotapes used creatively can be very effective ways of learning for some learners.

Multimedia presentation of material can present information in a variety of modalities (visual, auditory, and kinesthetic.) Having learners prepare presentations using these tools can be very motivating, exciting and rewarding.
