What Are the Different Types of Interactive Media?

Interactive media refers to: The audience and the media, or the audience and the audience, can use the media as a platform to achieve an interactive state. That is, media communication between people and machines and between people can be realized.

Interactive media

Words such as new media, interaction, interaction, multimedia, and digital art continue to appear around us, even reaching the point of flooding. Media is a very large concept and a very inaccurate expression. It should be said that it is a relative concept. It can be understood as all works, products or media derived from computer digital technology, involving digital dv movies, 3d animation, virtual broadcasting, stereo imaging, games, mobile phones, compact discs, networks, etc. Included in the media.
The category of interactive media is relatively narrow. It mainly refers to capturing external physical signals through sensors (photosensitive sensors, volume sensors, pressure sensors, humidity sensors, temperature sensors, distance sensors, ultrasonic sensors, tilt sensors, etc.) according to the interface. (USB, serial port, Firewire interface, Bluetooth, infrared, radio frequency, etc.), converted into digital or analog signals that the computer can understand through a certain transmission protocol, and then compiled by a specific program (Java, C ++, Actionsccript, processing, etc.) processing By combining the captured signal with other comprehensive materials and presenting it to the outside world through a display or other physical interface, after the new input-processing-output process, people realize the interaction between people and computers, that is, interactive media.

Interactive Media Email

E-mail is used to transfer personal information in online learning. As an interpersonal communication tool, it allows learners and teachers to have one-to-one communication. Using email, teachers can communicate with learners, as well as learners. Similarly, using email, teachers or other learners can get feedback to assist learners in their learning activities. Some distance courses can also provide a voice mail system, allowing learners to communicate with others through voice rather than text mail.

Interactive Media Online Discussion Group

Online discussion groups allow learners to talk to others about a topic of common interest. This discussion environment includes newsgroups and mailing lists. A mailing list is actually a larger online discussion group that sends email messages to users who have subscribed to the content of the message. Newsgroups are similar, but they are limited to one meeting, not to send messages to users. In other words, newsgroups require users to actively participate in discussions. The mailing list only passively accepts information on personal accounts. Electronic bulletin boards (BBS) also enable all learners to participate, no matter where and when he is online.

Interactive Media Online Resources

Learners can use web search engines to collect relevant information to assist their learning activities. Some websites provide a collection of certain web resources. This resource is essentially some address information. For example, the two websites, Argus Clearinghouse and ERIC Clearinghouse, can be said to be no less than any encyclopedia printed on paper. In addition, e-magazines also provide distance learning learners with better accessibility and immediateness.

Interactive media disc

The capacity of the disc is very large, and it can store a large amount of video, audio, animation and interactive multimedia information. Many online courses are available on CD-ROM, which incorporates many interactive multimedia materials. The CD-ROM not only provides well-structured and well-designed courses, but also synchronizes multiple media formats such as text, images, pictures, sounds, and animations. In the learning process, the computer of the distance learner is not in an online environment, but is in a state of being disconnected from the network, which can save the cost of establishing a network interconnection channel. Therefore, the CD-ROM provides a cheap and effective tool for distance learners.

Interactive Media Courseware

A large number of online course management tools, such as Blackboard, WebCT, LearingSpace, TopClass, WebCourse, and FirstClass, can assist course designers or teaching staff to create complex online learning environments, including teaching staff management, course design, and student evaluation aspect. For example, in the Blackboard and WebCT online course design environments, all interactive activities with online courseware are performed through a web browser, both of which provide synchronous and asynchronous interactions between teachers and students.
