Multimedia

Multimedia is content that uses a combination of different content

computer displays such as text-only or traditional forms of printed or hand-
produced material.

Multimedia Contents:

the entire world (e.g. YouTube)
2. Sound, Music or Audio. If videos are too much for you, you can always
record sounds. You can share your sound bites to the entire world (e.g.
SoundCloud).
3. Online Games. Game developers now create what is called “browser-
based games.” You do not need to install these games to your computer
as they run in most updated web browsers (AdventureQuest, Farmville,
Candy Crush)
4. Online Tests. Online survey forms and tests that automatically display
the results when finished (Online IQ and Personality Tests).
5. Courseware. Online courses that simulate the classroom online (e.g., E-
learning Courses using a Learning Management System)
6. Podcasts. An episodic series of audio or text files streamed online (e.g.,
Stuff You Should Know, TED Talks, The Starters, Ear Biscuits).

series/shows like Video Game High School, Good Mythical Morning).
