ICT as Medium for Advocacy




1. How Information and Communications and Technology (ICT) has transformed the educational methodologies when you were in grade school and now in Senior High School?

Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has had a significant impact on our educational methodologies. When I was in grade school, we used traditional teaching methods in which the teacher was the primary source of information and we, the students, were passive recipients. All of the activities, assignments, and projects are completed using textbooks as a guide. Finding the right information back then was a real pain. Now that I am in Senior High School, ICT has transformed education with the help of new technology, making it very easy for us to find and search for all of the information and answers we need for our projects and assignments using the internet.

2. Consider the following for comparison

a. The singing of the national anthem (form a line, sing the national anthem with conductor)

During my grade school, we (students) sang the National Anthem by forming a line together with our teachers. But now in my senior high school, we can now sing the National Anthem in our virtual classroom with a video presentation on a projector



b. Concept notes

During my grade school, we used to write summaries and notes in our notebooks. But now in my senior high school, we can now quickly photograph our notes, download/share them, and type our text using Microsoft Word on the computer or cellphone.



c. Presentation of visual aids

In my grade school, I could remember how many manila papers and cartolina are being used by our teacher just to teach us since it was a very common visual aids before. But now in my senior high school, teachers and students used PowerPoint Presentation to present their visual aids.



d. Class record

During my grade school, teachers used to bring a manual class record book with them to record students' grades. But now in my senior high school, teachers use Microsoft Excel to input student scores, and the computer then computes the results. 



e. Class dismissal

During my grade school, we are instructed to fall in line and we get dismissed one by one. But now in my senior high school, we get dismissed when the teacher say "goodbye class!" in the screen and then everyone would reply "goodbye Ma'am/Sir".



f. Assignment and research

During my grade school, I usually completed my assignments and research on my own, using books as a reference. But now in my senior high school, thanks to technological advancements, we can now easily answer our assignments and conduct research with the help of internet. It much better nowadays

MY UNDERSTANDING ABOUT MULTIMEDIA

blog.skillsuccess.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/multimedia-on-a-businessman-hand.png


WHAT IS MULTIMEDIA?

   Multimedia is a combination of one or more media such as text, graphics, drawings, images, audio, video and animations. 

     When all of these resources are combined, interactive applications will be produced. Interactivity is the fundamental feature of multimedia. It is the user ability to interact with a certain application. Multimedia allows the content to be presented in nonlinear way, which allows the reader to be active rather than passive. It is the user who will determine what content should be delivered, when should be delivered, and how would it be delivered.

     Multimedia can be used in the business, schools, home, public places and even virtual reality. You have seen some of these things around you. Even your cellphones either high end or not, that is still part of the multimedia.


TYPES OF MULTIMEDIA

A. Text and Graphics - Slideshow, Presentation, Diagrams, Infographics
B. Audio - Music Stations, Radio Stations
C. Video - Film, Movies, Video Clips, TV Shows
D. Animations - hand drawn, 2D, 3D, Motion Graphics, Stop Motion
E. Games - Online games, Offline games
F. Websites - Webinars and Online meetings, Moodle activities, Blogs, Interactive contents
G. Others - Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, Holograms

HOW DO I USE MULTIMEDIA?

   I used social media platforms and different applications wherein I can be able to share the things that I made using Multimedia.

Take a look at the following:


FACEBOOK: Me and my ABM GAUSS classmates created the Trendy Closet Facebook page, where we post and share our new arrival clothes to sale. We once do live-selling. This is for our Work Immersion project. 


INSTAGRAM: Instagram is a free photo and video sharing app available on iPhone and Android. I can upload photos videos and share them to my followers or to my selected group of friends. I can also view, comment, tag, mention and like other other people post. Most of the I used Instagram to follow my favorite artist and actors so that I could be always updated to their new post. Some of my favorite BL actors noticed me on Instagram and it made my heart flutter.



TIKTOK: I also made Tiktok account, where I can record videos and upload them to my fyp, follow my favorite content creators, and simply watch Tiktok videos.   


MESSENGER: Messenger is a free mobile messaging app used for instant messaging, sharing photos, videos, audio, recordings and for group chats. This app is free to download, I use this to communicate with my friends on Facebook and to my phone contacts. This is very easy to use.



TWITTER: This blue bird app is a service for friends, family, and coworkers to communicate and stay connected through the exchange of quick, frequent messages. I can post Tweets, which may contain photos, videos, links, and text. These messages are posted to my profile, and sent to my followers, and are searchable on Twitter search. To be honest, I just use Twitter for BTS to stay me updated to them, I also use this app to download HD photos and video clips. It contains a lot of useful features.




YOUTUBE: Although I haven't published any videos to my YouTube, but I use it to stream BTS mvs, watch my favorite vloggers, and watch BL series.



CAPCUT
: Capcut is what I used to edit my videos for school and other purposes because it has a lot of features like effects, text, stickers and many more to make my video look amazing. It's very easy to use.



And many more...
