The abacus is an excellent substitute for rote memorization of simple numbering and multiplication tables, which some young children find daunting. Students who learn abacus are found to be superior in the accuracy of their memory and the number of digits they are able to memorize when compared to non-abacus learners of the same age. Apart from the Chinese medium schools, the teaching and learning...
Taking the development of an oil depot training system for instance, the key technologies and development process of the system are described in this paper. Firstly, we begin with the background and significance in the research subject, and then we expound the overall structure and functions of the system and design processes. Secondly, we lay special stress on analyzing the database design, including...
This paper presents an interactive rich media contents authoring system based on MPEG-4 LASeR. Compared to the old and plain AV centric multimedia services, rich media services provide attractive characteristics include dynamic updates of contents and interactivities among various forming multimedia data such as audio, video, graphics and text. This paper introduces an authoring system, which can...
Combining with the characteristics of the postgraduate English listening and speaking course, interactive design principle for the multimedia courseware is put forward, and teaching goal design and concrete realization skills of the key points in the two activities are presented.
This paper presents one of the interactive multimedia tools resulted from a research and development project in the context of technology-enhanced learning for music, and the usage of the multimodal interface for performing arts preservation. Firstly, the paper briefly introduces the i-Maestro project (see www.i-maestro.org). With particular focuses on the interactive multimedia interface for 3D motion...
Work related accidents in the construction industry are at an unacceptably high level. Better education (particularly related to re-training) across all skill levels in the industry is seen as an integral part of any solution. Traditional lecture-based courses often fail to re-create the dynamic realities of managing health and safety (H&S) on-site. They therefore do not sufficiently engage the...
This paper presents a behavioral approach to specifying interactive multimedia applications. This requirements specification approach allows one to model sequence, parallelism, branching and iteration. Transitions due to events are subdivided into automatic, user and clock The transitions due to tasks to be done are subdivided into animate, image, sound, text and video, which are the elements of a...
With the rapid progression in the PC and multimedia technologies, it has become feasible to integrate multimedia technology into the teaching and learning process. What has been the conventional teacher-centred approach is now seeing a shift into one which emphasises on student-centred learning. Traditional educational content can now be transformed into interactive multimedia content by using authoring...
