The Utilization of Proven Technology in the Effective Incorporation and Implementation of Interactive Media towards Educational and Presentation Strategies
Lennon, Sean M.; Byford, Jeffrey
Journal of Educational Technology, v5 n1 p1-6 Apr-Jun 2008
The concept of a utilitarian and practical media package was developed primarily as a directive teaching tool for the classroom or educational setting though its versatility is by no means limited to this arena. This model is a practical application easily adaptable to any environment where lecture or instruction is desired or is a component or portion of a larger program. Its incorporation is easy for users with limited or basic computer proficiency as the design and implementation skills needed are largely used in most media programs and packages today. The model utilizes a simplistic, practicum driven organizational concept where proven technology such as the compact flash drive, any computer and a digital viewing device can be turned into a powerful, yet flexible teaching and/or instructional tool. As a practicum based and useful platform, this digital media package can be quickly designed and implemented by professionals with no extraordinary degree of digital literacy and still be flexible enough to be effective in multiple settings and venues.
