Multimedia authoring tools for computer assisted teaching & learning A concept of a possible project

Key factors

The concept is based on a triangle of mutually related models

• Pedagogical model -- objectives
• Informational model – content
• Instrumental model -- technologies

Pedagogical approach

• Student’s activity

– One gets opportunities for individual and/or group activities in a framework of school studies

• Co-operation

– Learning activities should be implemented in co-operation between a teacher and students’ team

• Teacher’s mission

– A teacher has a leading role similar to orchestra conductor’s one. Every student plays own role as a part of a common pedagogical symphony

Access to information resources

• Open informational environment
• Professionally designed and published materials
• Learning media objects (E-libraries)

– based on school curricula and filled by experts, – equally accessible for every participant of educational process, – open for adding new objects under professional supervising

Professional competencies:

Subject, pedagogy, research methods, design, technologies, etc.

Environment Expert community

Instrumental aspect

• Common modus operandi

– A teacher and students use the same methods and common toolkit for developing e-materials. – Common modus operandi guarantees that authoring activity started by one of educational process participants might be continued or edited by another student or other member of a school community

• ICT-based tools give an opportunity to modify and

enrich traditional pedagogical techniques and improve them towards innovative practices

Actions with media objects

• Texts: to colour, to hide, to insert, to authorize, to

compare, to link with another objects

• Images: to zoom, to crop, to mask, to draw, to

hide, to label, to compare to link with another

• bjects
• Sounds, videos: to set markers, to play clips

between preset markers, to include to a playlist for a consecutive performance, to explore in a combination with another medias
