Kinds of Multimedia

Interactive multimedia is the tool that teacher use to teach in the class. This tool is digital thing. It can be combination between graphics, moving images, sound and text that presented digitally. Interactive multimedia allows the teacher to control what and when elements are delivered.
The strength of interactive multimedia is that the teacher has a full control of the tools. He/she is the only one who can access the tools. The weakness is that the student can’t access the tools. So they didn’t know what tools the teacher use. Somehow students need to know what tools the teacher use, so they can operate them by themselves.

Hyperactive multimedia is not really different from Interactive multimedia but it provides a structure of linked elements through which the user can navigate. The example is online learning. The teacher can put the material on the website than the students can submit it on it.
The strength of hyperactive multimedia is save more time. The teacher just put the material on website and waits the students’ answer. So if the teacher can’t come to the class, he/she can do that way. The weakness is the teacher doesn’t know which the answer really answered by the students or not. It can be that the students don’t answer the questions by themselves.

Linear multimedia means the users watch from beginning to end. The example is movie presentations such as pre-recorded instructional videos or fictional movies recorded for entertainment purposes, and printed books and magazines. The teacher presents printed books or magazines on slide show.
The strength of linear multimedia is more interactive than non-linear multimedia. It also makes the students absorb the information easily. The weakness is no communication between teacher and students. Students only watch from beginning till end.
