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?

When I was in grade school, I'm only using cellphone as the key for gaming purposes and watching YouTube online. But in Senior High School, I'm using laptops as the key for research, finding questions, learning various topics, etc.


2. Consider the following for comparison. 

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

      Back then, band instruments were being used while playing the national anthem. But nowadays, a music video or an instrumental copy is being used while playing the national anthem.


b.     Concepts notes 

      Back then, we used to take down notes in my notebook about our discussed topic based on our subjects. But nowadays, we're just taking down notes using gadgets like mobile phones, laptops, etc.


c.     Presentation of visual aids

      Back then, we're using projector to watch presentations in our class. But nowadays, we have our smart TV or laptops.


d.     Class record

      Back then, teachers are using handbook for class records. But nowadays, teachers have now using electronic class records.


e.     class dismissal

      Back then after class, we're dismissed to go home early at 4:00 in the afternoon. But nowadays, our class time slots had been extended in 5:00 in the afternoon.


f.      assignment and research

      Back then, teachers have given us assignments and research before they dismissed and be replaced by another teacher but in different subjects. But nowadays, nothing have changed because in Senior High School, teachers did the same thing the way they did back then.

Blog Reflection Questions

a. My understanding about Multimedia.

b. How do I use Multimedia? With this picture, it can be used in some multimedia applications like Picasa, Microsoft Photos, or Paint. (Note: With this application, you can use paintbrushes, attach text, or change colors so that you can creatively design your own photo.)

c. What do I think the significance of using Multimedia? Based on my editing skills, I would be able to create something which is informative in nature for everyone. So, I frequently used multimedia up until now because this would help me to design any media format with the help of the multimedia applications.

What is FLV and SWF?

FLV and SWF are both formats that were designed to be used in Adobe Flash. FLV means Flash Video which is intended for video streaming on the internet. While SWF files can contain a variety of content. It could contain video, animation, games, even little applications. They are available to be used on Adobe Flash until it was discontinued on December 31, 2020. Because according to Adobe, it didn't take long for Flash to join other browser plugins like ActiveX and Java in being labeled a security risk. Try as it could, Adobe couldn't fix Flash, so in 2017, the company decided to cease development and kill Flash entirely by the end of 2020. So now, FLV and SWF files aren't available to be used in Adobe Flash. But FLV can be used in other multimedia players like VLC, Windows Media Player, etc.
