Morphing • Animates a picture sequence • Matches a series of points in the beginning image to the end image
Warping • Key points in one image are selected • Points are adjusted into a different shape
Virtual Reality • Users are electronically immersed into a simulated environment • Great potential for education
Multimedia can provide an interactive, multisensory learning experience, which motivates the learner and improves the quality of learning. In Summary
