 Multimedia is an essential avenue to
transform unique adaptations of a literary
genre, thus, making learning outputs
interesting and productive. To have a
creative adaptation of literary genres, the
following concepts have to take into
considerations.
SLIDESMANIA
 Multimedia and its Concepts
A multimedia is any electronic application used to teach lessons or to further
educate learners on a particular topic. It is a presentation of material that uses
both words and pictures in a combination of text, voice, picture or video.
Using interactive digital tools to tell a story is called digital storytelling and
often uses a combination of multimedia venues to complete the task. The use
of multimedia allows educational ideas and materials to be presented in a more
artistic, inspired and engaging way
SLIDESMANIA
 Uses of Multimedia and its Formats
The multimedia formats from various media includes: text and graphics
for slideshows, presentations, diagrams and infographics. Audio has
podcasts and recordings. Screen captures, lecture captures and animation
are examples of video components of multimedia. Other multimedia
components include blogs, vlogs, webinars and other interactive content.
SLIDESMANIA
 Multimedia applications include the interaction of different
media types like animation, video, text and sound. It has
become a part of our lives as soon as we entered the digital age.
Before the modern technology, there are tools helping us
appreciate some of the types of multimedia such as videos on
television. There are various components of multimedia such
as:
SLIDESMANIA
 1. Videos
Digital video is a primary
component in multimedia, especially
those that appear online and on
television. The different formats
of these types of multimedia
include wmv, avi, mped and flash.
Some of these formats are better
than others because they load
faster and can be viewed or loaded
using different platforms and
operating systems.
SLIDESMANIA
 Here is a list of multimedia formats:
SLIDESMANIA
 2. Animation
Animation is a form of art for
most people, especially those that
are in the business of producing
animated movies. Right now,
animation has become interactive,
allowing users to directly affect
the outcome of animated
components and events. Flash is
the most common platform for
animation, and using this
component, the interactivity of
SLIDESMANIA

animation is enhanced.
 3. Text
Text has always been and will always been
the most common among the types of
multimedia components in different
applications. Text in combination with other
media components can make any application
more user-friendly. By using text,
interactivity is increased. Text elements
are particularly important for accessibility
purposes. Users of an application need to
input text for the system to identify them.
Text is also used to create a digital
signature, such as in passwords.
SLIDESMANIA
 4. Images
Digital image files are needed to
create videos and animation. A
user would sooner go to a website
filled with colourful photographs
than one that contains only text
elements. Familiar image formats
include jpeg and png. These
formats permit editing. Images
are created by graphic designers
using various software.
SLIDESMANIA
 5. Audio
Voiceovers comprise a
tremendous number of the
types of multimedia
components. Audio files
include background music and
special effects. Any audio in
an application is designed to
improve a user’s experience.

 Characteristic of a Multimedia
● Multimedia can be used in the presentations, making them more fun
and interesting.
● A multimedia presentation has various viewing options such as
projector or a media player and the like.
● You can also download the multimedia presentation or play it live.
● The technology of multimedia can also be used to make the
information be conveyed more easily to the user.
● Multimedia technology has improved the learning experience by
combining various forms of media together
SLIDESMANIA
 Benefits of Using Multimedia
● Digital storytelling allows students to improve their knowledge about a
specific subject and increases skills such as writing, researching and
reading.
● Using multimedia improve a learner’s overall academic performance. In
particular, multimedia in the classroom is used for self-directed learning
or SDL.
● Students manage their time and assess what needs to be included in their
learning activities. This style of learning is used mostly with older
students who already know how to manipulate many of the multimedia
venues available to them.

 The Basic Elements of a
Short Story
1. Character|
The character element is the person or people in a story. Sometimes the
characters are not human, some may be animals or spirits. Incidentally, even
when non-human characters are used, they tend to have human characteristics.
Characters are usually of two types: the protagonist and the antagonist. The
protagonist is the main character. He or she is in conflict with another
character, who is known as the antagonist.
2. Setting|
The first important element of a short story is the setting. The setting refers
to the time and place that the event(s) in the story take place.
SLIDESMANIA
 3. Plot|
The plot refers to the flow of events in the story. Essentially, the plot refers
to what is happening in the story.

4. Conflict|
The conflict or complication refers to the tension, the fight or the struggle
between the various characters or forces in the story. This actually gives fuel
to the story and influences its flow (i.e. its plot).

5. Climax|
The climax is the most exciting part of a story. It is when the conflict is about
to or is getting resolved.

6. Theme|
This element refers to the topic that the writer writes or comments on in his
or her writing. The theme is the motif of the story, that is, it permeates the
SLIDESMANIA

whole story and recurs throughout the narrative.
