I choose this course for two reasons. The first reason is that I have taken other EDCI courses in the past, and I feel that I have some experience. The second reason is that my friend has taken EDCI337.They highly recommended that I take this course. They told me that the course required collaboration with others and production. I feel the need to learn to collaborate with others, and I would love to produce something myself.
My goal is simple. It is to do some small achievements related to multimedia learning with classmates.
Interactive Media
The mobile app Facebook is an example of interactive media.
The app uses graphics and text, allowing users to share photos and information about themselves.
Multimedia
Multimedia communication is our common type of multimedia. Television is a typical media communication. Television can broadcast all kinds of important information to reach everyone medium.
Interactive Multimedia
The museum experience is interactive and multimedia.
Museum immersive projections are becoming increasingly popular with the public. Visitors can perform various activities in virtual environments similar to the real world through immersive projection screens and virtual reality headsets.
I found the museum experience to be the most interesting of my three examples. This new immersive projection of the museum can attract more visitors to participate. By visualizing the story and integrating audio-optical multimedia technology, visitors provide immersive cultural experience for the audience. I went to a museum myself recently, and I noticed that museums are being digitally transformed these days. A lot of things can not only watch, but also let me experience it.

Hi Junyi，
I like your example of the interactive museum. It is actually the first time I’ve heard of this kind of museums and I think it would be very interesting and would attract more people to go and visit!
May I ask how the museum interacts with individual visitors? Does everyone have the chance to make an input for the museum to display certain outcomes for the visitors to interact with them?

Hi, Qiaoyang
I think maybe I didn’t use the vocabulary very accurately and confused you. In fact, museums today are going digital. A museum called SPYSCAPE New York, for example, lets visitors experience playing spy.(Steens, 2021) Visitors find their detective skills through a combination of immersive physical Spaces and smartphone-specific apps. (2022)Therefore, I believe that only visitors who experience these devices can make an output for the museum. They also have access to the museum’s results. Between you and me, Victoria does have an interactive museum, but it doesn’t have any cool interactive equipment.

Hi Junyi,
I also have been to the Royal BC museum few months ago, the sight I have seen did impress me a lot. From my tour into the museum, that is concrete document to tell the audience about the historical event, like the life change to Japanese Canadian from the past to now on, and I have also seen some ecosystem demonstrated by the 3D model, everything there is vivid to both seeing and hearing senses. I agree with you about the multimedia in museum, especially it can bring the audience the feeling of immersive so that people can memorize one event or one thing much deeper inside their mind.
