Language: Japanese 6. Infrequent vs. frequent users: since these people who want to learn Japanese are not native speakers, therefore, they are infrequent users. They need the help of ...

Session 5 - individual task 1 - Kevin Cheng PACT analysis - PH Value Interactive exercise https://lab.codemao.cn/work/894716   People - for F1 F1 has low cognitive characteristics and low span of attention, thus a one page interactive exercise can stimulate their attention A simple interactive app caters for all different kinds of physical ability of F1, except the disabled They have very little experience, but for those learners with high ability, they may know about it already and thus it could be quite useless for them The application only uses English and thus may neglect those whose native language is not English It doesn't cater to special, as those with colour blindness would defeat the whole purpose of educating phenolphthalein's effect As it is intended to be used within a classroom context for high school, it is a homogenous user group with very little age difference Activities Goal is to let them learn about knowledge of PH value through an inter...

Online Course 1 - Process 4 - Kevin Cheng

Online Course 1 - Process 4 - Kevin Cheng 1. Image – included image of the creator of the theory 2. Coherence – no extra words or unneeded words were included 3. Spatial contiguity – the term descriptions are placed adjacent to the actual term itself 4. Signaling – the terms are highlighted in corresponding color  to effectively indicate which is which 5. Personalization – use of personal words such as "your" to make it feel more personal to readers

Online Course - task 3

10.11 feedback: add more info.: 1. class name 2.your target learners 3.brief description delate repeated info.: 1. zpd in definition 2. words in pic

Session 3 - task 3

Explanation of my design 1) The information is clear and neat. The slogan "You have multiple ways to learn" tells students that they can learn by using multimedia. 2) The picture that I selected can clearly show that this course is related to multimedia. 3) Redundancy Principle: extra or useless pictures and words were not shown on this cover page 4) The colourful picture without any words can draw students' attention and inspire them to think about the below slogan "You have multiple ways to learn" 5) The background is white in colour, so students will mainly focus on the picture and the slogan

Online Course 1 - Process 2 - Kevin Cheng

Online Course 1 - Process 2 - Kevin Cheng https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0i5rycLJ3D8 This is a video made to give people the general knowledge of a car windows’ physical properties as well as information on how to effectively break through them should the need to escape from one arises. The ‘teacher’ is called Destin, and throughout the video he constantly refers to the viewers as ‘you’, which envelops the learning in a conversational style rather than a formal style. This is an application of the concept “Personalization” . The entire video is presented by Destin’s voice, thus his natural human voice brings more emotions and impacts than a machine voice, hence this supports the “Voice” principle. As Destin is present throughout the video interacting with the camera, his face is clearly visible, making the video feel more interactive (the use of “Image” principle). In the beginning (0:25-1:08), Destin first gives us an insight into the differences between a car’s...

Online Course - task 1

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=viHILXVY_eU&t=70 The aim of this video is to tell people what e-learning is and its advantages, although it is an advertisement actually. From my perspective, this learning resource achieves its goals to tell audiences definition and benefits of e-learning with applying following principles. 1. Coherence Principle – There is no extraneous words and unrelated pictures during the whole video. For example, when definite e-learning, only “electronic learning” occurs; when explain e-learning tools with pictures, only related images - audio, video, interactive games and simulations - on the screen. 2. Signaling Principle –  Some important informations are highlighted to make audiences learn better. 3. Redundancy Principle – No much texts on screen when explain why e-learning is more cost-saving than traditional class.   4. Spatial Contiguity Principle – E-learning learners can take courses from all around the world 24 hours a da...

Online session - task 3 (10 Oct)

1) Signaling Principle: highlights key words 2) Coherence Principle: excluded extra words and picture 3) Segmenting Principle: key points are separated in four bullet-points 4) Multimedia Principle: people can learn better when words and pictures are presented together

Online session - task 1 (5 Oct)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vIb8MO3H8k This is a video teaching students grade 5 music theory topic - intervals. The video is good for beginners to learn grade 5 theory. 1) Coherence principle: people learn better when extra words, pictures and sounds are excluded. All the pictures are only including two music notes (for students to count the interval). 2) Signaling principle: the video highlights the important notes and put it on the top so as to attract students' attention. 3) Multimedia Principle: people learn better from words and pictures rather than word alone. In this video, author always used pictures and words together to explain abstract music theory. 4) Segmenting Principle: Key points are separated in two segments rather than a long paragraph. 5) Personalization Principle: narrations are transcript into words in conversational style. 6) Voice Principle: the video is spoken in a friendly human voice rather than machine voice.
