Multimedia Tailored For The Web
Last, but not least, a page full of Multimedia tailored for the WEB

 The multimedia CD-ROM basically transforms the contents of the book, produced for Athina into multimedia.

 The added value of this transformation consists in :

  • The heavy use of speech, which is essential to language learning.
  • The active involvement of the student, who is continuously presented with his progress and is helped in designing his own learning strategies.
  • The interaction of the student with the CD-ROM through the use of his own speech, which can subsequently be uploaded to a web server, in order to be accessible by his distance teacher.
  • The general possibility of student / teacher interaction through the use of the Internet and specifically through the possibility of downloading new exercises, and posting the results to the teacher.
The CD-ROM is designed along the lines of a modern user Interface featuring 3D-Graphics animations and video in order to attract the student.

Exercises range from multiple choice to speech recording and playback exercises.

Progress is monitored through a progress file, which can be opened, saved and uploaded to a web server, where the student has access rights.
