Multimedia; supporting tool to the selfmanaged learning model
Abstract
This paper describes the design and development of multimedia software called "Softaweb" that was implemented in the University Center of the Valleys to support undergraduate students in Education in the field of "Using Technology in Education IV".Simple readings were designed accompanied by screen captures in RTF (Rich Text File - Rich Text Files) as well as animations, videos and practical exercises that were integrated into a single desktop program. The multimedia application supported students to independently and self-managed so learn how to use basic design package web pages known as Macromedia Dreamweaver. The first stage identified the need to support students in the fourth semester of education as they are expected to develop an educational website and its materials are not aspects of web design. The second stage is designed and developed multimedia elements such as videos, animations and lectures that formed the multimedia package of self-empowerment. In a third step, we implemented the tool to a sample of 10 students who had computer equipment in their homes. In a fourth step the tool was evaluated by students as well as an expert in the area of education and another in the area of information technology. Finally observations were collected by both experts and the students and implemented in the tool in order to have full multimedia software and well suited to the needs of users and the demands of self-managed learning.
