I wonder if I put a few words here?

Interactive and multimedia learning is a new form of method which is incorporating itself into the field of the academic education system. Similarly, I have high hopes from the class which is to get at least a beginner level of skills by which I can create multimedia-based infographics. However, I am sure that it can make me an expert on that thing as it also depends on my efforts towards learning from this course. In my opinion, the example of Rich’s son playing a web-based game is related to more interactive learning. Similarly, one example of multimedia-based learning can be TED talks which incorporates presentation, speech and videos simultaneously (Huang et. al, 2016). It does make a positive impact on me as with their multimedia-based learning method. They can convey the message more accurately to the wider audience.

Additionally, I also remember a learning experience that does not involve digital technology from my school days. One of our English teacher who seems to be expert its storytelling. He used hand gestures, simple pictures and wooden figures to convey the message to the students. I enjoyed it very much and it will remain a positive experience for me as it brings back the old memories. Similarly, I used to add symbols, figures and small clipart in the presentation of my previous class to make them impactful. Thus, I gained a lot from today’s videos and also came to know about the fact that multimedia form of expression is more than three centuries old.

Welcome and Introduction

Before proceeding with this first blog post, we expect you to consider your privacy preferences carefully and that you have considered the following options:

  1. Do you want to be online vs. offline?
  2. Do you want to use your name (or part thereof) vs. a pseudonym (e.g., West Coast Teacher)?
  3. Do you want to have your blog public vs. private? (Note, you can set individual blog posts private or password protected or have an entire blog set to private)
  4. Have you considered whether you are posting within or outside of Canada? This blog on opened.ca is hosted within Canada. That said, any public blog posts can have its content aggregated/curated onto social networks outside of Canada.

First tasks you might explore with your new blog:

  • Go into its admin panel found by adding /wp-admin at the end of your blog’s URL
  • Add new category or tags to organize your blog posts – found under “Posts” (but do not remove the pre-existing categories or sub-categories).  If you would like to add more course categories, please do so (e.g., add EDCI 306A with no space for Music Ed, etc.)
  • See if your blog posts are appearing on the course website (you must have the course categories assigned to a post first and have provided your instructor with your blog URL)
  • Add pages
  • Embed images or set featured images and embed video in blog posts and pages (can be your own media or that found on the internet, but consider free or creative commons licensed works)
  • Under Appearance,
    • Select your preferred website theme and customize to your preferences (New title, etc.)
    • Customize menus & navigation
    • Use widgets to customize blog content and features
  • Delete this starter post (or switch it to draft status if you want to keep for reference)

Do consider creating categories for each course that you take should you wish to document your learning (or from professional learning activities outside of formal courses). Keep note, however, that you may wish to use the course topic as the category as opposed to the course number as those outside of your program would not be familiar with the number (e.g., we use “Multimedia Learning” instead of “edci337).

Lastly, as always, be aware of the FIPPA as it relates to privacy and share only those names/images that you have consent to use or are otherwise public figures. When in doubt, ask us.
