THE INFLUENCE OF MULTIMEDIA ON THE CREATION OF TEACHING STRATEGIES
THE INFLUENCE OF MULTIMEDIA ON THE CREATION OF TEACHING STRATEGIES

Summary/Abstract: The social efforts during the last few decades to make thorough the changes within instructional processes (internal, pedagogical, that is methodical reforms), have resulted, indeed, in substantial positive progresses, but not to the extent previously expected and desired. While the science of didactic teaching should be complimented on its continuous work and theoretical contribution, it is generally felt that methodology has not applied these findings quite sufficiently. This is precisely the reason why the affirmation of methodology and methodological training of teachers is nowadays seen as a major step forward in reformation of upbringing and educating future generations. The main goal of this paper is to make a wider professional and scientific community aware of the latest findings and achievements of a relatively young scientific study (didactic approach to multimedia) and to point out, through good examples from everyday life, a growing trend of abandoning single methodic approaches and to show the need for adopting new teaching strategies, as a necessary precondition for ’awakening’ our education process. The basic feature of any transition, even those found in education, includes substantial and fundamental changes with the aim of modernizing and improving the complete education process.
