Day 1

Let Us Learn!

Multimedia is one of the most fascinating and fastest-growing areas, in the

field of Information Technology. Before the advent of computers, media objects were
difficult to put together. Computers enable us to combine the media and make it
easy to manipulate and store for reuse.

Using this very broad definition of multimedia, when used in the classroom
could include Power point presentations that are created by the teachers or
downloaded videos that is used for reference or instruction, or activities that
directly engage the students and encourage you to work in groups, express your
knowledge in multiple ways, solve problems and revise their your work.

Looking for resources is only one step in research process. Once you find
information resources, it is critical that you evaluate the sources to be sure they
are credible and authoritative sources to use to support the arguments or factual
claims you make in your paper or projects. Let us begin this lesson on how you
decide whether the content of the article, advertisement or any source of
information is valid, accurate, relevant and with adequate information. This is also
a sort of review of what you have learned from your previous lesson. Let’s get
started!

you increase your competence choosing appropriate multimedia resources?

Early on, your skill to evaluate if the text & advertisement is valid,
accurate, relevant and with adequate information is checked. Similarly, you
have also investigated the non-print materials which are equally important
with the print materials.

As you continue this module, you are going to learn the types of
Multimedia and how to properly utilize them in looking for information. This
provides a powerful medium of communication and offers students new
insights into organizing, synthesizing and evaluating information.

Day 3
What is Multimedia?
Multimedia is a broad term for combining multiple media formats. Whenever
text, audio, still images, animation, video and interactivity are combined together,
the result is multimedia.
It enables the users to integrate and manipulate data from diverse sources
such as video, graphics, animation, audio and text on a single hardware platform.
The term multimedia is used in contrast to media which only utilizes traditional
forms of printed or hand-produced text. Multimedia is one of the most fascinating
and fastest-growing areas, in the field of Information Technology.
The Five Multimedia Elements
Multimedia combines five basic types of media into the learning
environment: text, video, sound, graphics and animation, thus providing a
powerful new tool for education.
1. Text is the most common multimedia element. Text expresses the
information the developer is trying to get across to their viewers. Even
though pictures grab the viewers’ attention, text is a good idea to include, as
well, just in case the picture does not load.
2. An image catches the viewers’ attention much more quickly than just
plain, old text. Almost every multimedia application contains images. The
most common images are JPEGS and PNGs. Also, Photoshop and Paint.NET
create high tech visual effects which are common with images.
3. The third element is audio. Most of the time, audio files are deployed
using plug-in media players. A few audio formats include RealAudio, MIDI,
Wave, WMA, and MP3. The developer will compress the format to shorten
the time. Before the file is downloaded, one can stream the audio.
4.The fourth multimedia element is video. The web is the most common
place where videos are seen concerning multimedia elements. A few digital
video formats are Flash, MPEG, AVI, WMV, and QuickTime. Streaming
digital videos can increase the speed of the playback. Developers use videos
to hold on to the viewers’ attention.
5. The fifth multimedia website is animation. Animation draws in the
younger crowd. AdobeFlash is the most common tool for creating these
animations. Animations are the most creative and fun multimedia element!

13
 DID YOU KNOW?
Using images, video and animations alongside a
text stimulates student’s attention and retention.
Under these circumstances, in a multimedia
NBJ learning environment, students can identify and
solve problems more easily compared to the
scenario where teaching is made possible only by
textbooks.

Since multimedia resources is called to be effective in education especially as

a tool for research, there is also a need for students to develop an additional set of
literacy skill to understand when these sources are appropriate. Because there is
frequently no quality control over web information, you must critically evaluate all
the material you find there, text and graphics alike. In academic writing, you must
remember that it is important to give credit to whom the information comes from. If
the idea that you presented did not come from you, you might acknowledge its
source. This is where the knowledge of citation guidelines comes in handy.

Citations, which are called in-text citations, are included when you are
adding information from another individual’s work into your own project. When
you add text word-for-word from another source into your project or take
information from another source and place it in your own words and writing
style (known as paraphrasing), you create an in-text citation. These citations
are short in length and are placed in the main part of your project, directly after
the borrowed information.

References are found at the end of your research project, usually on the
last page. Included on this reference list page is the full information for any in-
text citations found in the body of the project. These references are listed in
alphabetical order by the author's last name.

.
An APA in-text citation includes only three items: the last name(s) of the
author(s), the year the source was published, and sometimes the page or location of
the information

14
 References include more information such as the name of the author(s), the
year the source was published, the full title of the source, and the URL or page
range.

Be guided by the pointers on in-text citations below (APA style)& reference

for it would be of great help in citing sources especially during research.
References display the full information for all the citations found in the body
of a research project.

Activity 1: BRING IN THE SOURCE

Whether in speaking or in writing, you need to cite your source when stating
facts and support all your claims. Work on the exercises that follow about citing
your sources. Read a report from about Philippines closing gender gaps. Go over
the news story and summarize or paraphrase the material given incorporate APA
in- text-citation and referencing

Philippines is most gender-equal country in Asia – report

By CNN Philippines Staff
Published Dec 18, 2018 5:43:16 PM
Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, December 18) — The
Philippines remains the top Asian country with the narrowest
gap between men and women, according to a global report
released Tuesday.

The World Economic Forum (WEF)'s Global Gender Gap Report

for 2018 also ranked the Philippines eighth among 149
countries in achieving gender equality. It said the country got its
record-high score of 0.799, which means it has closed almost 80
percent of its overall gender gap.

The country also improved two notches from being on the 10th
spot in 2017. The report listed the Philippines among the five
countries that have achieved full parity in political and
economic leadership – with women legislators, senior officials
and managers. Other countries with the same achievement are
16
Laos, Bahamas, Colombia, and Jamaica.
 The Philippines’ gender gap in the educational attainment pillar remains closed, like
last year. This means that the literacy rate and enrolment in schools are almost the same
for men and women.

Meanwhile, the report noted that the Philippines managed to narrow its Economic
Participation and Opportunity gender gap "due to increases in wage equality for similar
work and women's estimated earned income," the report noted.

Based on the WEF's annual Executive Opinion Survey,the Philippines closed 79

percent of the gap on wage equality this year, from 75 percent in 2017.

The Philippines, however, got the lowest score of 0.416 in the area of political
empowerment, which means it has yet to close almost 60 percent of the gap, and it is not
alone.

"Political Empowerment is where the gender gap remains the widest (globally): only
23% of the political gap – unchanged since last year – has been closed, and no country has
yet fully closed political empowerment gaps," the report said. This indicator measures the
gap between men and women at the highest level of political decision-making, either as
head of state or in key parliamentary and ministerial positions.

In the Philippines, President Rodrigo Duterte has publicly said he prefers to appoint
men in government, saying they can get his many orders done.Globally, a lot more needs to
be done. "Today, the Global Gender Gap score stands at 68 percent. This means that, on
average, there is still a 32 percent gap to close," the report said.

Let Us Assess
In this final phase of the lesson, you will apply the insights you have
learned, the skills you have developed and information you have gathered
from the previous activities. Your task now will involve more of your skills
synthesizing essential information from various sources.
Activity 1 Write your Citations & References
Almost anything in everyday life that you deal with has aspects that are
debatable. As with school issues, any topic that calls for change is worth
researching. Gather the facts now and don’t forget to cite your multimedia sources.
Do the following:
1. Brainstorm on a topic that you feel strongly about.
Here are some examples:

▪ Why violence and sex on TV shows is okay (or not); why free
internet is a good idea (or bad)

▪ Why the work week should be shorter (or longer);

▪ Why all students should participate in extracurricular activities

(or not)

▪ Why actors/ actresses should be elected for public office (or not);

▪ Why death penalty should be revived (or not) ;or other topics
that are important to you.

2. Now that you have chosen your main topic, give it a good title.

3. Make an outline of subtopics that you would be needing to argue

your point.

4. Research on those topics using any multimedia resources (about

your topic) and by searching from the internet.

5. Write down your explanation to support your topic and on top of

it, write your citations and references to prove that your
source is important, relevant, valid, adequate and with
accurate facts.

Including APA citations and references in your

research projects is a very important component of
research process. When you include citations, you’re
being a responsible researcher, you’re showing readers that you
were able to find valuable, high- quality information from other
source, place them into your project where appropriate, all while
acknowledging the original authors and their work.

Activity 1: How Am I doing?
Direction: Put a check mark ( ) before the item that applies to
you.

SKILLS

I can tell the difference between reliable and unreliable sources

I can decide if the article/ advertisement is valid, accurate,

relevant and with adequate information.

I can evaluate research sources.

I can compare and contrast the features of a print and non-

print resources.

I can tell the function of each multimedia resource element.

I can use multimedia resources in my research/ project.

I can cite the source of the information that I summarized,

paraphrased and quoted.

I can discuss a concept coherently.

Let Us Reflect

The use of technology and multimedia resources

replace the traditional methods to capture your attention,
increase your motivation and succeed in your learning
objectives. It gives you the choices on how to convey a given
idea (e.g., through text, video, animation). Although there is
much optimism that multimedia resources are great tool for
instruction and even if the information are relevant for
understanding, there is a further danger that it can provide
so much information so easily. In order to come up with a
well-thought idea, you must use appropriate multimedia
resources which can provide sources of information which
can state facts. This provides a powerful medium of
communications and offers you new insights into organized,
synthesized and evaluated information which are essential in
making research.
