CORELDRAW
 CorelDRAW is a vector graphics editor developed by Corel
Corporation. The software is a robust graphics suite, providing many
features for users to edit graphics. These features include contrast
adjustment, color balancing, adding special effects like borders to
images, and it is capable of working with multiple layers and multiple
pages.
 CorelDraw was originally released in January of 1989, running on the
Windows 2.x operating system. Today, the software is still used by
many people, with the latest version, X8, being released on March 15,
2016. CorelDRAW is primarily designed for the Windows operating
system. There were several releases for macOS and macOS X, but poor
sales resulted in the discontinuation of those versions.

boxes which you probably want to just close.
To create a new document you can do the following:
 file->new or ctrl-n
Or you can;
 Click on the icon in the extreme upper left corner of the window, just
below the “file” menu.

This will cause a dialog box (see image below). In this dialog box
you can set the name of the document and various other things but
for now just say “OK”.

DESIGNING SCIENCE BASED INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS


USING CORELDRAW

To design science based instructional materials in CorelDraw, certain


skills such as weld, trim, intersect, transparency etc. are very
important. Having these skills enables students to manipulates objects of
various shapes to their own desired objects.
How to Weld, Trim and intersect objects.
 Welding objects together in CorelDraw creates one object with a
single line.
 Trimming objects creates irregularly shaped object by removing areas
that overlap.
 Intersecting objects creates an object from the area where more than
one objects overlap.

Introduction to Presentation Packages


A presentation package (software) is a category of application software that is specifically designed to
allow users to create a presentation of ideas by stringing together text, images and audio/video. The
presentation tells a story or supports speech or the presentation of information. Presentation software or
package is also known as a presentation program. A typical presentation package has three main
components:
1. Text editor for inputting and formatting text
2. Facility for inserting graphics and other multimedia files
3. Slideshow system for displaying the content
Presentation software can be categorized into two general forms: Slideware and Canvas-based.
 Slideware is using linear flow. Examples of slideware are the two best known presentation
application software in market today; the Microsoft PowerPoint and Apple’s Keynote.
 Canvas-based presentation tools support nonlinear flow as well. A prominent example of this type is
Prezi.
 Presentation software such as Academic presenter and SlideDog supports both of them.

You are required to select either a blank document to start designing your
presentation from the scratch or choose any of the available templates there.

14-Apr-19 31
Nannim A. Fadip, Department of Science Education, University of Nigeria, Nsukka

Ways of Creating Presentation


You can create a new presentation in several ways. You can start by working with the AutoContent wizard, in
which you begin with a presentation that contains suggested content and design. You can also start with an
existing presentation and change it to suit your needs. Another way to start a presentation is by selecting a
design template that determines the presentation's design but doesn't include content. You can also begin with
an outline you import from another application or with a blank presentation that has neither suggested content
nor design. If Power Point is already open, select File -> New from the Menu bar.
 AutoContent Wizard: Just as the MS-Word Auto Wizard makes it very simple to create a Resume, the
AutoContent Wizard provides templates and ideas for a variety of presentation types. Page through the
wizard by clicking the Next button on the bottom of each page after making necessary choices.
 Design Template: Power Point provides many templates with different backgrounds and text formatting to
begin your presentation. Preview each design by highlighting the template name on the list. Press OK after
you have chosen the design.
 Blank Presentation: Select Blank Presentation to build the presentation from scratch with no preset
graphics or formatting.
 Auto Presentation Layout: After selecting the presentation type, you will be prompted to choose the
layout of the new slide. These layouts include bulleted lists, graphs, and/or images. Click on each
thumbnail image and a description will be printed in the message box. Highlight the layout you want and
click OK.

The Components of PowerPoint


You create PowerPoint presentation from its window using its toolbars and menus.
Title Bar: It is located at the top of the screen, it displays the name of the presentation.
Menu Bar: The menu bar located below the title bar, lists the options.
The Status Bar: Consist of messages which appears at the bottom of the window. These messages
describe what you are seeing and doing in the PowerPoint windows as you work. Normally, the status
bar tells you which slide you're working on (Slide 1, Slide 2, and so on). When you choose a command,
the status bar provides a short message telling you what that command will do.
The Toolbars: You can use toolbars for quick access to commonly used commands and tools. When
you first start PowerPoint and open a presentation, the toolbars are displayed just below the menu bar.
Different toolbars appear automatically in each view
The Scroll Bar: There's a vertical scroll bar on the right side of the PowerPoint window. The scroll bar
has an elevator as well as double arrow buttons you can use to move from slide to slide. To move slide
by slide using the double arrow buttons, you can quickly move one slide up or one slide down using the
Previous Slide and Next Slide buttons icons below the vertical scroll bar. To go to the next slide, click
the double down arrows and similarly for previous slide click the double up arrows.

UNIT 3: THE SMART BOARD AND ITS USES IN INSTRUCTION

 SMART boards put simply, are a sophisticated replacement of the


traditional overhead projector. Over the years, this cutting-edge
technology has proved popular for students of all ages. The
interactive board turns a typical classroom into a fun learning
environment. It enriches classrooms in several ways by providing
hands on collaboration and creating the perfect learning setting.
 The first aspect of incorporating SMART board technology into
the classroom is knowing the components, their function, and how
to use them as a cohesive unit. The days of "chalk and talk" are
over. Now we must be more interactive and engaging when it
comes to the delivery of knowledge. The tools utilized and listed
below will help you to understand how to do that using SMART
board technology.
Nannim A. Fadip, Department of Science Education, University of Nigeria, Nsukka 14-Apr-19 81

COMPONENTS OF A SMART BOARD


The SMART board is basic to every
system. While it comes in different sizes,
it is at its most basic a white board that
can function as a white board, and when
connected to a computer with SMART
board software, can turn into a
multimedia tool for engagement. The
computer must be able to support and
run the software provided with the
SMART board. The projector can
sometimes be attached to the board or be
independent of the board and rest on a

COMPONENTS OF A SMART BOARD… Cont.


A more in depth look at the SMART board and
its components can include the following
elements:
 Audio System: Speakers that are utilized
through the computer
 Connection Panel: Connects your computer
through USB and VGA video cables to the
SMART board
 Control Module: Provides you with three
buttons, right click, keyboard, and settings
 Eraser: Functions as an eraser for writing
done with a stylus.
 Stylus: Colored pens that can digitally write
on the SMART board

Benefits of Smart Board in Classroom


 1. Provides Flexibility: Interactive whiteboards
allow many different forms of media including
photos, illustrations, maps, graphs, games, and
video, to be displayed. These tools not only enrich
the classroom experience but also help to expand
the nature of content that can be used in learning.
In addition, SMART Boards makes learning to be
more dynamic owing to the different forms of
presenting information.
 2. Enhanced teaching/learning experience:
SMART Boards provide new ways for teachers to
teach, and student to learn. These tools support a
wide variety of learning styles. For instance, visual
learners can watch as their tutors use the Interactive
whiteboards to display visual elements, whereas
audio learners can listen and have discussions. On
the other hand, the Boards come with touchscreen
capabilities that allow tactile learners to touch and
interact with the board.

3. Interact and share: The interactive nature of SMART boards offers learners an
opportunity to share and participate in the instructional process. Interactivity provides a
platform for students to demonstrate their grasp of the subject through touching,
drawing, and writing. Every learner has an opportunity to participate or contribute to
the presentation and/or discussion via notebooks and tablets. In addition, the boards
provide for rapid assessment whereby learners can receive immediate feedback.
Teachers and students are able to identify individual strengths and weaknesses in
various subject areas and isolate areas/topics that need more focus or review.
4. Low-Maintenance: SMART Boards are neat and easy to use. There are no hassles
cleaning or maintaining whiteboards. The data on the screen can be modified using a
specialized highlighting tool or pen. There is no need for using unhygienic chalk or
marker pens.
5. Access to online information & tools: SMART boards allow learners to easily
access a rich database of online resources. Teachers can use the wide variety of online
information sources such as knowledge databases, online video and news items to
reinforce their lessons. Learners can also quickly access the wide range of powerful
tools and resources to conduct research and supplement their usual study material.

6. Going Green: Interactive boards are also environmentally friendly. They offer teachers an
entirely different way of presenting information to students, which eliminates the need for
writing, printing or photocopying. Which, contribute to eliminate waste and pollution, from
over-utilization of paper and ink.
7. Technology Integration: SMART boards allow for integration of various technologies in
order to improve the learning experience. For instance, it is possible to attach tools such as
microscopes, document cameras, cameras or video cameras to a whiteboard to aid in instruction.
It is also possible to integrate the interactive learning tools with a wide range of software
applications.
8. Communication: Interactive whiteboards allow for connectivity in different locations;
making ideal collaboration and distance learning environments. When using SMART boards,
there is increase in student-to-student collaboration and increase in overall participation during
lesson.
Overall, incorporating SMART Boards to the classroom environment is likely to change the way
teachers impart knowledge to students and at the same time simplify the learning process for
students. Students will find it easy to engage with lessons and gain a better understanding of the
overall lesson. It is an ideal tool for any classroom setting. The education field needs technology
like this for students, learners, and educators to continue to grow in their field.

UNIT 4: FILE OPERATIONS


 Computers are used for storage of information.
 Files are used for storing the data of the users for a long time period, the files can contains any
type of information.
 This means it can store text, images or pictures or any data in any format.
 There are mechanisms used for storing the information, accessing the information and also
performing some operations on the files.
 Files generally have their own types and own names.
 When we store a file in a system, then we must have to specify the name and the type of file.
 The name of file will be any valid name while the file type means the application which the
file is linked. Hence, every file belongs to a special type of application software.
 In providing a file name, we also specify the extension of the file because a system will
retrieve the contents of the file into that application software. For example, if there is a file
which contains some paintings then this will be opened into the Paint software.
Nannim A. Fadip, Department of Science Education, University of Nigeria, Nsukka 14-Apr-19 87

Types of Files
1) Ordinary Files or Simple File: - Ordinary File may belong to any type of Application for example
notepad, paint, C Program, Songs etc. So, all the files that are created by a user are ordinary files. With the
help of ordinary files we can store the information which contains text, database, any image or any other
type of information.
2) Directory files.: are files stored into a particular directory or folder. For example, a folder named songs
which contains many songs.
3) Special Files.: The special files are those which are not created by the user. They files necessary to run a
system, they are files created by the system manufacturers. What this means is that all the files of an
operating system or windows are special files. All the system files are stored into the system by using .sys
extension.
4) FIFO Files: The First in First Out files are used by the system for executing processes into some order.
The files that come first, will be executed first and the system maintains an order or sequence order. When a
user request for a service from the system, then the requests of the users are arranged into some files and all
the requests of the system will be performed by the system by using some sequence order in which they are
entered or we can say that all the files or requests that are received from the users will be executed by using
some order which is also known as First in First Out or FIFO order.

1. Read Operation: to read the information which is stored into the files.
2. Write Operation: for inserting some new contents into a file.
3. Rename: to change the name of file.
4. Copy: to make a copy of file(s) from one location to another.
5. Sorting: to arrange the contents of file.
