Description:
Explore technology and multimedia! This course offers you the opportunity to conduct an extensive inquiry and research into subject matter needed to produce a multimedia presentation/project utilizing the full range of available multimedia functions (sound, video, computer graphics, animation, and text).
You will create a multimedia project by using Microsoft's PowerPoint. PowerPoint is not provided because most schools already have this program. You will work with tools such as scanners, CD-ROM drives, sound input devices, digital cameras, video cameras, and other tools available at your school. Whether you have limited resources or many, it is possible to begin authoring a multimedia project.
Your presentation will be built around a certain subject. The subjects are: The Astronomer -- explore the solar system; The Pacifist – discover the people who made the world more peaceful; The Engineer – learn about America’s structural achievements; The Ecologist – investigate ecosystems and the destructive effects of pollution; The Historian –- examine the historical accomplishments of American Presidents; The Travel Agent – take an exciting travel expedition through Europe. You will research the Internet and other sources to obtain your information for your presentation.
Multimedia is an exciting technology that is widely used today in business and education. Why not take the challenge and learn how to prepare a presentation to better deliver your message or idea? |
