LB#18 ROLE AND FUNCTION OF AN EDUCATIONAL MEDIA

Media education can help young people put current images and messages about Aboriginal people into perspective by helping them understand how the media work, why stereotyping exists, how decisions are made, and why "it matters who makes it." Media education is not about learning the right answers; it’s about consuming media images with an active, critical mind and asking the right questions.
The following are the kinds of inquiries that can help to raise awareness about the portrayal of Aboriginal people in movies, television entertainment and current affairs programming.

LB#17 ASSESSMENT IN A CONSTRUCTIVIST,TECHNOLOGY-SUPPORTED LEARNING

Education is being partially transformed by new technologies. At one time students could learn a small, but fixed body of knowledge. However, today, the enormous amount of available information, coupled with the fact that the amount of knowledge in the world continues to double at an increasingly quick rate, requires a transformative approach to education. It is imperative that the student of today learns how to be an information manager, rather than in information regurgitate.

Lb#16 Using the project-based learning multimedia as a teaching-learning strategy

Educational researchers have studied two major ways in which students use computers in schools. The first is learning from computers. Here the computer acts as tutor. The computer presents information to the student and the student responds. Simple drill and practice programs and more comprehensive Integrated Learning Systems, such as Jostens and Computer Curriculum Corporation, are examples of this category.
Researchers have also focused on how students learn with computers. Here, students use computers and other technologies to write, analyze data, develop presentations, and do research.

LB#15 Project-Based learning and multimedia: what is it?

it's best to start with some definitions. By project-based learning, we mean a teaching method in which students acquire new knowledge and skills in the course of designing, planning, and producing some product or performance. By multimedia, we mean the integration of media objects such as text, graphics, video, animation, and sound to represent and convey information. Thus, our definition is:
Project-based multimedia learning is a method of teaching in which students acquire new knowledge and skills in the course of designing, planning, and producing a multimedia product.
Your students' multimedia products will be technology-based presentations, such as a computerized slide show, a Web site, or a video. These presentations will include evidence that your students have mastered key concepts and processes you need to teach and will be a source of great pride for them and for you.

LB#14 Maximixing the use of the overhead projector and the Chalkboard

Over time, the average hearing impaired student, as compared to students with normal hearing , shows an ever increasing gap in vocabulary growth, complex sentence comprehension and construction, and in concept formation. Hearing impaired students often learn to "feign" comprehension with the end result being that the student does have optimal learning opportunities. Therefore, facilitative strategies for hearing impaired students are primarily concerned with various aspects of communication. Other problems arise because deafness is an invisible disability. It is easy for teachers to "forget about it" and treat the student as not having a disability. It has also been shown that hearing impaired students with good English skills also have good science concept formation.

effective although to  some extend in different ways. This is providing strong evidence for the role of experience
in determining  responses.
