What is Manipulative Media?

Refers to materials, programs, applications and


the like that teachers and students use to
formulate new information to aid learning through
the use, analysis, evaluation and production of
interactive and hands-on media.
Defining Interactive Media

⮚ Investopedia defined interactive media as a “method of communication in which the


program's outputs depend on the user's inputs, and the user's inputs, in turn, affect
the program's outputs.”

⮚ Social Media is a kind of interactive media because they use graphics and text that allow
sharing information between users, online conversing or chatting and playing online or
web-based games.

⮚ Social networking websites such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram are examples of


interactive media. 
Interactivity- is the foremost attribute of
manipulative media because the main goal is for
a user learner like you to have high
involvement in your use of the application.

Database applications and other financial,


engineering and trading applications are also
typically very interactive.
One area where interactivity is most
useful is in online training.
Interactivities in this area allow
learners to interact with the course in
terms of action and/or thinking.
Characteristics
Teach savvy- proficient in the use of technology especially computers
Credible- able to be believed capable of being believed; plausible. Worthy of
confidence; reliable.
Flexible- knows how to use a range of technology; able to change or to do
different things.
Charismatic- appeals to the senses of different people.

Types of Manipulative
Information and Media
Traditional Manipulative Media
Traditional manipulative media are often seen in classrooms for children in the early
grades. This is because these media serve as the children's first sensory learning
experience, and social learning experience in the case of group toys. The use of
traditional manipulatives decreases in upper grade classrooms as the knowledge of
the learners becomes more dynamic.
Digital Manipulative Media
- Is the new manipulative material with computational capabilities inside
traditional children toys. They progress though school which enable
physical objects to move, sense, and interact with one another and as a
result, can be manipulated by children.
