The Multimedia Collaboration Service (MMC) is a multiperson conferencing system which uses both audio and video as well as shared applications to create a conference setting. We describe a way of utilizing the work done in MMC to support a teleteaching setting. This requires both evaluating the requirements of teleteaching and the abilities of MMC with respect to these requirements.

This paper gives an account of a DEET funded project entitled 'Developing Links Between and Industry and Higher Education' at the Department of Management at Victoria University of Technology. The project entails the development of a state-of-the-art multimedia events management education and training program to be piloted in 1996 as a precursor to an accredited course in 1997.

The subject "power system analysis and design" is one of the major undergraduate components in electrical engineering courses. Computer applications in this subject yield significant insight into a complete electric power system. To help students better understand the subject, a computerised program has been developed to illustrate the analytical procedure of power systems. The program is used for teaching the subject from an analysis and design point of view as well as for explaining the structure and operation of the system. In the program, the analytical characteristics of the major parts of the power system are described. The objective of the paper is to present the computerised program developed to teach the fundamentals of power systems and to show the analytical procedures used.

The paper introduces a multimedia project at Ball State University. The purpose of the project is to develop multimedia software as teaching supplementary tools. Several packages of software have been developed for the beginning courses of the Chinese and Japanese languages. There are four main components in teaching the courses: pronunciation, conversation, writing, and grammar. The current goal of the project is to develop a package of software for each component in both Chinese and Japanese, of which some have been completed. The paper discusses the structure and the design of each package separately.

We focus on program diagrams as one method for program modularizations. By using program diagrams, programmers can understand program structures, data structures and control flow faster, and divide a program into modules better. The paper proposes a network based programming language education environment that provides integrated support of programming languages, programming techniques, programming style, program documentation, modularization, and program abstraction using program diagrams as a foundation. The environment aims to transform the conventional CAI system into a multimedia one, unify the education environment with the actual programming environment, incorporate instructor guidance capabilities, and achieve integrated control and administration via a computer network.

City University of Hong Kong has initiated a studio approach to teaching, starting with modules in introductory science and engineering. Studio teaching replaces the traditional large-group lecture, small-group tutorial and separate laboratory work with an integrated approach. A typical studio session consists of a mixture of discussions, mini-lectures, demonstrations, computer simulations, problem-solving activities, and computer supported laboratory exercises. It utilises computer based teaching materials that emphasise multimedia and interactive learning. Studio teaching emphasises hands-on activities rather than presentation of materials. It focuses on learning rather than teaching. Experience indicates that studio teaching leads to more effective learning and student satisfaction.

This paper supplements a demonstration which addresses the creation of multi-media being incorporated into computer assisted learning (CAL) programs in a tertiary setting. These programs were designed and implemented in a Faculty of Health Science where nursing was predominantly the focus, hence expertise in the area of computer technology was limited. The paper addresses the advantages of using multi-media in the curriculum, in addition to describing the multi-media development process from a novice perspective.

Information Technology (IT) is becoming an important tool for managing construction information and processes, it is also evolving to be an effective managerial aid for assisting construction decision makers. This paper examines basic IT topics and the depths that need to be covered in an infrastructure engineering and management curriculum. An IT course model is proposed which provides guidance for developing IT courses in construction education. Difficulties and challenges that may be encountered in developing and offering IT courses are anticipated.

The article explores the potential for CD ROM with the New Zealand short film 'Mirage' in terms of some of the strategies that have been developed in film criticism. This is not a definitive reading of the film but offers the user a deeper insight and shows the possibilities of this medium as a fresh approach in the way information is presented to assist in the education process. Interactive multimedia kiosks are becoming very popular in educational institutions and public facilities as a method of finding information. The paper also looks at a kiosk developed for The Waikato Polytechnic Marketing Section.
