Some skills of making multimedia courseware with Authorware
Author: Liu Ping, School of Information Science and Technology, Qingdao University of Science and Technology.
The role of multimedia courseware in modern educational technology and subject teaching has been paid more and more attention, and its application has become more and more extensive. Good teaching results can be achieved through the organic combination of pictures, text animation, film and television, sound and other media. Therefore, its design and production are becoming more and more skills that teachers should master. Among the tools used to make software, Authorware is favored by teachers because of its strong visibility and interactivity and clear logical structure. Therefore, the author talks about some skills of making multimedia courseware with Authorware based on his years of teaching experience and making experience with Authorware.
1 courseware making
First, we should determine the style of the courseware, write a script as detailed as possible, and then collect the required materials such as words, animations and sounds. Collecting materials is a very important link in the production process. Inadequate material preparation will prolong the software production cycle and break the original series of plans.
Pay attention to the file format supported by Authorware when collecting materials. The text formats supported by uthorware are plain text format (txt) and rich text format (rtf), and RTF files can keep their original formats. Authorware supports the following image formats: BMP, CIF, MF, Photoshop 3. 0, etc. Supported digital movie types include: Director, Avi, QuickTime for Windows, FLC and MPEG. And you can use sound files with extensions in WAV, AIFF, MP3, SWA and other formats.
In addition, it should be noted that Authorware4. 0 compatible with Authorware supports version 3. 5.a3w files, but multimedia files made by Authorware II of Version 3 are not supported. 0 or earlier. At present, the latest version is AuthorVare 7. 0, which is compatible with previous versions.
2 correctly set the size of the display interface
The first step in courseware making is to determine the size of the display interface. Authonvare's default standard interface is 640x480. If you use the Resizewindow function to initialize the running window, you can't go beyond this range. At present, the display resolution of computers is mostly 800 x 600 or 1 024 x 768, which will make the image unable to be displayed in full screen or in the center. The correct way is to modify files and properties in the menu bar, set the display window size to 800 x 600 or 1 024 x 768 in the dialog box, and then reset the Resizewindow.
Three Skills of Making Personalized Buttons
In courseware, some buttons are often used to control the interactive mode. Although you can use the button tool that comes with Authorware to make buttons, the buttons produced are single in effect and lack of changes. At this time, we can use Photoshop, ULEAD HOTO influence, ULEAD COOL3D and other professional software make special effect buttons, which can add a lot of color to the courseware. The method is as follows: first, use them to generate BMP files, and then execute the "window" and "button" commands in the menu, and the "button library" dialog box will pop up. Click the "Add" button at the bottom left, and the "Button Edit" dialog box will appear. There are two Guide buttons in the lower right corner. Click on the one above, and there is "which file to import?" Dialog box, from which you can select your own buttons. Click the next "Guide" to enter the WAV file as the sound to be played after the button is pressed.
4 courseware "slimming" skills
Although Authorware is an excellent software for making multimedia courseware, its biggest defect is that the courseware takes up a lot of disk space, which causes problems such as insufficient computer resources, unsynchronized audio and video, unsmooth playback and slow uploading speed. In order to solve this problem, we adopt the following methods and techniques. For wav sound file, use mp3 tool to convert it into. P3 format, and then use plug-in ActiveX or mp3player. U32 to play, can greatly reduce the space; For the background music of multimedia courseware, midi file can be used instead of wav file, which is not only beautiful in music, but also saves space. You can also use "Xtras* other to WAV to TWA" in Authorware menu bar for conversion. In addition, except for courseware with high language requirements (such as music, foreign languages, pronunciation), the sound should be converted into mono as far as possible to save space.
For animation and video files, in order to save space, such as. Vi, mov, flc, fli, dat and other formats are converted into mpg format because of the compression ratio of mpg format files.
Is the highest, supported by Authorware. However, it should be noted that the XingMPEG driver needs to be installed at runtime to play normally. For some simple animations,
It is recommended to make it in gif format, because the animation in this format takes up very little space.
5 packaging processing skills
The multimedia courseware made by Authorware will eventually be packaged to generate executable files. Exe files, which can be run directly in the window without any software platform. Running on the platform. Pay attention to copying some driver files to the courseware directory when packaging. These driver files are: to achieve a specific transition effect of 0.4U-toonrt℃, there must be corresponding files in Xtra folder, and the driver files used to support the playback effect are a6qt, xmo/
a6qt32，xmo，a6vfw。 *** o/a6vfw32。 The driver files used by xmo to load and display bitmap files are Bm-pview, x 16/Bmpview. X32 driver file for playing. S "and. Gif file is int 132. dll，
vct32 16 1。 dll，vct 16 15 1。 dll，icdllw32，dll}
Methods and skills of uploading courseware to server
The CAI courseware made by Authorwa can't save the format directly, but it can be packaged into. Aam files and. As a file, use the 0.44 uthorne web packager program. ~ format files can be directly installed on IE or Netscape of Authorware web player plug-in. Open the browser and browse, and you can write the following HTML files:
(HTML)
(head)
(1 TITLE)* * * CAl courseware (/TITLE) (! Head) ('
Text)
(Embedded SRC ii "file name. Aam}} width ii 640
Right 2 48D BGcolor = FFFFFF)
(/BODY)
(/HTML)
If you have applied for home page space on Inter, you can upload it to Inter, and others can browse CAI courseware.
When using Authornare to make multimedia courseware, as long as we are good at exploration and research, we will certainly find more practical skills. Using these skills can greatly improve the level of multimedia courseware, shorten the production cycle, get twice the result with half the effort, and improve the operability and usability of multimedia courseware.
