Develop Phase- Media Components

Hi guys, hope you are doing well:)
In this post I'm going to write about Develop Phase-Media Components. These components play the most important role in our final presentations. Let's show and explain some of them:
-text;
-graphic;
-animations;
-audio.

Let's begin with the text. As far as you are concerned it plays the key role. The way we write , how do we show the most important words , whether it is worth shown in bold or not ; these are all the features that make us work carefully on it, making it as simple as we can for those who are going to read it. We also should focus where to use capitals and words in bold to attract student's attention and make them have interest on what we are going to explain later on. It should not confuse them.

Graphics are those which bring a presentation to life, make it more interesting and funny.
They can be created from computer programs or can be imported from an existing file. They make the presentation more colourful. To make it easier for people to ise them , PowerPoint allows to import pictures that are not provided as clip art. It is helpful for each of us to use graphics in our presentations but not exaggerating.

When we say ' animations' we have in mind moving pictures. So, they are effects where pictures can be able to move. It attracts our attention and make the presentation funnier. Eventhough they take time to be created , they are worth showing on PPT. We also should test them in different computers to see differences or if they work properly.

If we put audio in our presentations , it would be better and helpful for listening skill. I've done such a thing in my project and i think it will be prefered by other students. An audio can include music, sound effects. We can record it and put it on computer disks but it will take a lot of time. If we take it somewhere else with the right program we can cut it or mix it with other sounds to make it more interesting and present something new.

Hope you enjoyed reading this , feel free to add your coments:)

The use of critical thinking in teaching grammar and vocabulary.

Critical thinking helps us to see more clearly what we know and what we need to know. It includes the ability to engage in independent thinking. When we think in a critical way , we can logically understand the connections between the ideas that we have. We also are able to solve problems in a systematic way. Grammar and vocabulary lessons are two of the most important to be teached and learned by the students. According to teaching vocabulary through critical thinking I can say that critical thinking takes that concept go further. We should know the relation a word has with other words. For example, one may ask themself which words belong together and make a list of those which fit with one another. So, when it comes to the grouping of words that fit together students start to think critically in order to make a distinction from other ones. In this case the lesson is no longer about memorisation but it is about remembering such words and use them after an activity.  One activity...

Design Phase

Hello everyone, This week's topic is about Design Phase. Design plays an importan role when creating or doing PowerPoint presentations. We are coming to an end to our projects and this model helped us a lot. Design phase helps us to organize information , to put in there images, videos ,make it more interesting for the students. There are some factors that influence this phase. I can mention: -outlining the content, -creating flowcharts -specifying screen -design guidelines When we say ' outlining the content' we are talking about  the the target audience, what audience are we going to teach.  If we know that , we'll also know the proper exercises we should prepare for them.  I've finished with the outlining of the content in my project where I've targeted my audience and the way I'm going to teach them.  We all created flowcharts in our presentations. Almost all of us have created them by using computer programs.  I should stress out some of them to...

Multimedia, Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences and Cooperative Learning

Hi everyone, hope you are doing well. As this week's topic was about the use of multimedia , Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences and Cooperative Learning , I want to take them one by one. We all know that interest in technology education is raising day by day, especially during this last weeks where we can only communicate with one another online. There are a lot of benefits of multimedia learning. We can mention'  a deeper understanding'. We can make relationships between verbal and visual representations and it is easier for us to remember and understand what we are learning in a better way. As teaching deals with human mind it means that it is important to study different kinds of intelligences. This theory can be used for each subject and at any level. Each student comes to the class as an individual and is not forced to think in the same way as others do. Each of them share their own ideas and that is what makes them different and special from each other....
