Abstract | For thousands of years, human beings have acquired and processed information using a number of different senses. Hence, the use of different senses for information collection, analysis and remembering is something, which our brain can relate to very well. The process of converting the information into knowledge, referencing and utilizing it, is carried out within the personal mind-based multimedia system of the human brain. The human mind can create the most sophisticated animations and multimedia as it can select different types of thought-based “audio” and “visual” effects as well as “actors”. In other words, the human mind has access to an unlimited amount of resources for designing the thought-based multimedia systems. Unfortunately, we are not able to transfer the information and knowledge in our mind directly to other people and sources. This may become possible in the future. This paper explores the use of innovative and technology aided teaching methods, which utilize different modes and senses for the purpose of learning enhancement. Finally, it compares the learning outcomes and preferences of a sample of internationally selected students using a multimedia system, which attempts to cross the communication barriers in learning. |
