This evolution has resulted from the emergence of the digital system and has greatly impacted on the global education and socio-cultural development. Multimedia has been absorbed into the education sector for producing a new learning concept and a combination of educational and entertainment approach. This research is concerned with the application of Window Speech Recognition and Microsoft Visual Basic 2008 Integrated/Interactive Development Environment in Multimedia-Assisted Courseware prototype development for Primary School Mathematics contents, namely, single digits and the addition. The Teaching and Learning techniques—Explain, Instruct and Facilitate are proposed and these could be viewed as instructors’ centered strategy, instructors’—learners’ dual communication and learners' active participation. The prototype is called M-EIF and deployed only users' voices;hence the activation of Window Speech Recognition is required prior to a test run.展开更多

Its use is affected by the following three aspects, including price and performance of hardware equipment, cost and difficulty of courseware development, and quality of teaching by VR courseware. Therefore, the future development trend of in VR classroom should be the trinity of terminal+courseware+SaaS.展开更多

A method of communication among several nodes in the network is presented which uses low level network protocol and solves the problem of transmitting image from one node to many nodes by network on real time. In this environment, teacher’s machine, student’s and a server are connected by high speed ether net. Under the control of the system, the teacher can lock student’s keyboard, transmit text or image screen among students, build a electronic cursor on student’s screen and move it, assign exercises or gather student’s answers. The student also can put question to the teacher, talk with other students by electronic phone, etc. The system is to use network and multimedia technique to build a distributed instruction environment. The paper also develops a new concept of a CAI method which changes traditional passively learning to an actively learning method.展开更多
