Quotation

• Perplexity is the beginning of knowledge•  If you're doing your best, you won't have

any time to worry about failure. ~H. Jackson Brown, Jr.

• There is no failure except in no longer trying.  ~Elbert Hubbard

Learning Model

• Directed, teacher centered learning• Undirected, student centered learning• Blended Learning

Directed, student centered learning

• Teacher Active on learning• Student Passive on learning• Student capability equal to teacher• Student depend on teacher personality

Undirected, student centered learning

• Teacher as facilitator• Student active on learning• Student capability has possibility more

than teacher• Student is not depend on teacher

personality• Student can conduct exploration• Can encourage student become critical,

innovative, learn how to learn

Blended learning

• Combining Directed and Undirected learning

• Easy to be implemented

Supporting Tools for Undirected Learning

• Script Based Multimedia Interactive Learning– Neo book

• Multimedia Self Training Test / Computer Based Test– Quiz Creator

• Multimedia Self Learning / Tutorial– Camtasia

NeoBook

• Simple Scripting• Rapid Application Builder• NeoBook is independent application

consist of several pages• For each page can consist of object,

variable, action, operation etc

The Tool Palette (1)

• Palette style• Selection Tool• Push Button• Article Tool• New Link Article• Image• Polygon

The Tool Palette (2)

• Rectangle• Circle• Line• Label/Text• Text entry• List box• Combo box• Check box

The Tool Palette (3)

• Radio Button• Web browser• Timer• Track Bar• Video• Animated Gifs• Flash• Container

Understanding Actions and Variable

• Adding Actions to Objects and Pages• Using Variables• Creating and Defining Variables• Predefined Global Variables

Adding Actions to Objects and Pages

• Navigation, Message and Multimedia• Files and Printing• String and Object• Menu, Internet, Application and windows• Control and variable

Predefined Global Variables

• Read only variable• Read and write variable• These variables have been defined by

NeoBook

Read only variable

• Book Properties• Page Properties• Date/Time• Windows/Hardware• Folders• Message/Error• Advanced

Read and write variable

• Book Properties• Page Properties• Drag & Drop• Folders• Windows• Mail/HTTP

Using Variables

• Undefined• String• Integer• Currency• Decimal• Boolean• Date

Creating and Defining Variables

• Creating variables in NeoBook is easy• In NeoBook, anytime you make a

reference to a variable, it’s created automatically

• For this purpose, SetVar can be used in NeoBook

Creating and Defining Variables

• NeoBook provides another Action called DefineVar that can be used to create variables and restrict their contents to specific types of data

• Variable used specifically is DefineVar (see using variable)

Control statement

• “If” “Else” “Endif”• “IfEx “Else“ “Endif”

Case Studies

• The first lesson• The second lesson• The third lesson• The fourth Lesson• The fifth lesson• The sixth lesson

The first Lesson

• Message/Interaction Actions• Variable Defined by Author

The second lesson

• Simple Interactive Image Viewer• Getting image object information

The third lesson

• Dynamics text box• Simple mathematics operation

The fourth lesson

• Creating simple electronics book• Using Global publication variables

The fifth lesson

• Building multiple choice for examination• Control statement• The final results score for evaluation

A little knowledge that acts is worth infinitely

more than much knowledge that is idle.
