Day 7 Critical Writing
Paragraph One: The education multimedia or edutainment is a very appropriate for teaching employees on a larger scale. By combining elements of visual, sound, movie, and colors into our learning system it will be easier for employees to understand the material we have to present to them. We also have different methods to overcome the human memory such as chunking to help employees remember material when on the job. Another key benefit to using multimedia is that the user also had some control and thus can determine the pace of learning. This is very important when Learning new skills for a job. When necessary it is also easy to update the edutainment site as a design team can easily go into the system and update elements almost instantly.
Paragraph Two: Using multimedia to teach employees instead of a one on one basis is more cost effective because once you have the edutainment product produced, your employees can learn from it indefinitely, unlike the previous method when you paid the teacher doing one on one all the time. The company is also held accountable for what goes into the media program because, even though the student has control of the pace of learning, the company has direct control of what goes into the media program unlike a teacher who has some leverage on how to present the material.

Paragraph One: There are several advantages of using multimedia over lectures or text books. One example is that by using multimedia you can combine a variety of learning styles such as visual, kinesthetic, and auditory elements into the product to appeal to a variety of students. Another example, is that Multimedia is more interactive so that learners won't become as bored as easily such as in a textbook or lecture lesson. Finally, learners can control their own pace of learning so they can learn faster or slower than normal. The only major disadvantage of using multimedia as a learning product is that it can be rather costly to make and buy for use, on the other hand, this price is more than made up for as the quality of students you produce which in turn produce higher quality products which in turn make more money.
Paragraph Two: Even though using multimedia as a learning source will be expensive at first, the long term benefits more than make up for it. For example when using multimedia everything is standardized, thus when students work together, there is no huge difference between knowledge levels and so, they can work together efficiently because they are on the same page. Another benefit is that you can effectively keep track of the pace of students so that you know that they are working learning and improving. The number of students you would produce would also increase because multimedia is more effective. In conclusion, using multimedia as a learning source is very beneficial for every one in the long run even though initially it might be a little more costly.
