Multimedia is constantly growing while classrooms today and tomorrow are finding new forms of multimedia to use. The eBook is a new resource that displays published books digitally. The eBook is great for secondary students, but has not developed colors or graphics, so it would be less effective in younger grades. Interactive whiteboards are also being used in the classroom and can function as projector screens as well. A teacher can display or project something onto the screen and then let the students interact with the displayed picture. Audio and video media can enhance my classroom in unique ways. For example, my students could use a scanner to scan their written stories and illustrations to form a printed and published book. I could also use the website YouTube.com to show demonstrations or I could use videos such as School House Rock to teach grammar in an audio and visual way. The use of computers and multimedia will change and improve learning because each student learns and retains information in different ways. Through the use of computers and multimedia my students will find learning interactive, memorable, and most importantly, fun!
