Learning Activity
Microsoft Word is the complex word processor with many kinds of facilities which can
be used to do the works of human. Some features in Microsoft Word 2002 aren’t supported in
previous versions of word. To make sure that documents appear correctly in earlier versions of
word, formatting that isn’t supported can be removed and replaced with formatting that is
supported. If you are not using the Korean language version of Microsoft office, then this feature
is only available if you have installed Microsoft Office XP proofing tools for Korean or Microsoft
office XP multilingual user interface pack, which is available through a volume licensing
agreement.
First press ALT + F9, if the information changes to a shaded field code (field code:
placeholder text that shows where specified information from your data source will appear ; the
element in a field that generate a field’s result. The field code includes the field characters, field
type, and instruction), the field shading option is selected. Microsoft word does not print this
shading. However, if you want to remove it or show it only when the field is selected, click option
on the tools menu, click the view tab, and then select never or when selected in the field shading
box.
15
insert empty field character, and then type the instruction. You can also insert a field by clicking
field on the insert menu.
♣ Because Microsoft word formats the codes for certain fields – such as PRIVATE, TC, and TA
– as hidden text ( hidden text: Character formatting that allows you to show or hide specified
text, Microsoft Word indicates hidden text by underlining it with a dotted line ). You will only
see the codes if hidden text is displayed.
C. Practice: give the students to make their own sentences about Microsoft Word and
applications either in advantages and disadvantages. They can tell their opinions in English on

Kristine Olson, Dean , CaliforniaCommunity College
We see a lot of changes in the job market and, consequently, in
people’s attitude about education. Many jobs are changing or no
longer exist because companies are thinking the way they do
business. They have automated their factories and do not need
many of their current employees. The key is training- or retraining,
actually- to find a job in a new area. Anything in the medical
profession is hot-or in computers.
D. Assignment: ask the students to make the composition about their reasons to continue the
study. Give them 15-25 minutes to do it while the lecturer has to check about their problems in
writing because they must be guided patiently so that they have an ability to tell about their family
first before they will make their opinion about other topics.
E. Practice. Ask the students to speak or tell about their reasons to continue the study one by
one so that they will be brave to do anything in speaking. They must tell more details.
F. Close. The lecturer gives their opinion about the students’ speaking about their study so that
the students will be able to speak better and directly later. The lecturer always has to give the
motivation.

B. Background of Study.
This text gives the information about Multimedia. It includes the MPEG, CDROM,
Animation Software, etc. .
MULTIMEDIA
30
delivery tools supporting multimedia data. An ideal multimedia system should be capable of
transmitting real-time video and audio across a LAN or digital telephone network.
MPEG ( Motion Picture Expert Group ) is an International Standard for the
compression of digital audio and video transmission. MPEG is chartered by the ISO to
standardize a coded representation of video and audio suitable for digital storage media, such as
compact disk-read only memory (CDROM), Digital Audio Tape (DAT) etc. The various
audio compression techniques offer different levels of complexity, compressed audio quality and
amount of data compression.
The main components of multimedia are text, graphics, sound, and animation. Text is
an integral part of any multimedia production and used to add emphasis to presentations.
Graphics can be in the form of illustration, charts, maps, pictures, images, etc. Sound is in the
form of voice, music, or special effects. Animation can be used to explain complex subject that
are yet to become reality.
Tools and Accessories of Multimedia are sound, drawing softwares, video, scanning,
animation softwares, non-linear editing, authoring. Drawing softwarescan create the graphics
ranging from simple squares and circles to complex images ( thesoftwares are Corel Draw, Adobe
Photoshop, Paint Brush on Ms.Windows, etc).
Video Capture Board goes inside the computer and enables the user to capture the video
from the video camera. Scanning is to scan over an image such as photo, drawing logo, etc,
converting it into an image and this image (such as adding, removing color, filtering) can be seen
on the screen.
Animation softwares; there are many animation softwares packages available that can
be used to create 2d and 3d animations. We can use Animation studio, animator pro, GIF
animator, 3d studio max, etc. non-Linear editing, importing of audio and its integration with video
is a very simple feature of these softwares. The softwares available is Adobe premiere, media
suite. Authoring is a tool which we will be able to interactively give any graphics or screens for
the user according to his choice; the softwares are Macromedia director, Multimedia tool book
from Asymnestris, etc.

What would you do if you had one million dollars ? Would you buy a house ? Would you
travel around the world ? What if you had even more money ? What would you do with one
billion dollars ? One billion dollars is a million dollars a thousand times! That’s a lot of money.
Would you ever down a billion dollars ? Mark Zuckerberg did.
Mark Zuckeberg is the founder and CEO of Facebook, an immensely popular social
networking website that started in the United States. Mark was a college student at
HarverdUniversity in Cambridge, Massachusetts when he founded the website in 2004. The now
world famous website was started from Mark’s dorm room. When Mark started the site, its
membership was restricted to only Harvard students. Its popularity increased and soon other
schools in the northeastern United States were included. Now, millions of student users visit daily
and the website is one of the top ten most widely visited sites on the internet worldwide ! Now,
at only 23 years of age, Mark has had a chance to do what so many people will never have the
opportunity to do – he is CEO of his own company.
College students, and now high school student, use Facebook to communicate with
friends, exchange information, and share pictures. Users don’t have to pay any money to create
their profiles. All revenue is generated via advertising.
44
Many other companies have been rumored to be interested in purchasing Facebook. Just
a few years after Mark started the company, he was approached by Terry Semel who was the
CEO of Yahoo ! Terry offered Mark one billion dollars to sell Facebook to Yahoo ! Mark said
no though and is still the owner and CEO. Mark stands behind his original intentions. He’s been
quoted that he knows the value of the company could decrease. However, he claims he’s in this
to build something incredible, not be bought out by another company.
Maybe he was smart. Now Facebook is rumored to be worth billions of dollars and bigger
companies, like Microsoft, want a stake of the company. Some private investment firms are also
interested. Facebook could sell for over 15 billion dollars if Mark ever decides to sell it at all.
Perharps Mark will just keep working from his Palo Alto, California office in the heart of Silicon
Valley, where he moved after dropping out of HarverdUniversity to pursue his dream of building
something cool.
C. Assignment: ask the students to make the composition about their reasons why the facebook
which they always use in their life one by one. Give them 15-25 minutes to do it while the
