With education merging with advancing multimedia technology, it would
be nice if some Greek professors could put together an interactive
grammar on CD. This will utilize the strengths of multimedia learning.
The idea is to allow students and researchers to interactively click
items on a screen to drill down to the specific grammar item and play
back a recorded classroom setting discussing the requested subject.
The software would allow rewind, fast-forward, and allow the student
to jump to related links.
What would also be nice to have an interactive BAGD, although this
would not need to be visual.
Interactive education on television is not far away either. A
subdivision in Orlando, FLA now has it as a pilot and is scheduled for
implementation soon in San Diego. This would allow students/
researchers to request lessons/research on their T.V. set and
interact.
All that would be required of the professor is to allow oneself to be
taped and then decide what links are needed to point to which setting.
Then let the software multimedia people do the rest. Although printed
material is here to stay, it is a natural progression from the Codex.
If a professor is willing, perhaps some software talent on the list
could volunteer some technical guidance to make this happen. First, a
willing professor is needed (hint Carl, hint, hint). Also in need of
discussion are hidden pitfalls to this idea.
Sincerely,
Wes
P.S. It would not be mandatory for the Greek Professor to have a
marketing image, although this would not be a bad thing either <g>.
