assignment 6 (a)
my partner and I already plan, design and create a creative, innovative and ethical brochure by using microsoft office publisher for this task. the content of this brochure is related to our topic "original and licensing software". below are the lists of the graphics editors that can be used in creating the brochure.

1. open office draw(OSS)
2. online google draw (collaborative drawing)
3. 2D graphic editting software- bitmap and vector images
4. microsoft paint
5. use drawing facilities in microsoft power point (can save as bitmap graphic- jpg,bmp)

Therefore, for creating our own brochure, we made use of  miccrosoft paint and other drawing tools to edit and make it beautiful and creative. normally, the images are saved with various format such as GPEG, GIFF, TIFF, BMP, PNG, nad WMF. This is how our brochure looks like! have a look!

assignment 6 (b)

for this assignment, we have to plan, design and create a booklet using bookfold function in word. we decide to do this assignment in Microsoft office Word as we familiar with it. the related graphic in journal article can be inserted in this booklet and we did insert certain important extract in the booklet! besides, we also insert the images by using correct format. click  here to view our booklet. 

for me, it is easier to use Microsoft paint, power point and google doc to create an image rather than others. however, I reviewed that all of the tools and software have the value and each have something unique to offer.  

using all these kind of multimedia, I would say that it needs your creative thinking in order to fully understand how to apply the application. with the help of the provided links by Dr. Siti Fatimah, We are able to digging up some knowledge from the software. I believe I can apply this multimedia approach in teaching and learning  later. the using of multimedia in education is very important so as to vary the style of teaching and learning.  I guess, that's all for now! bye!  :-)
