Assessment Outline

What do i need to research?

1. What is it? What do we use it for?
2. How is it a part of our multimedia world?
3. Are there different types? What are the advantages/disadvantages of each type?
4. A "simple" explanation of how it works.
5. A rough indication of the cost of the device (only where a device is being researched)
6. Future directions, what is waiting around the corner, what is the next "new" technology in this area?

How should i present my research:

Research should be:
  • easy to read, font, colour
  • easy to find
  • in a logical format

Some suggestions include:
  • question-answer format
  • headings
  • paragraphs
  • dot points

ProtoPage

Our group is not going to use Proto page for our assessment task because it is too difficult to use and it also has many limitations. Also the page loads very slowly and takes too much time to add anything into the page.
Collabarating with Proto page is fairly simple as all we need to do is have one login and not edit it at the same time because we will override the other person's work. This makes it too difficult to do our Assignment therefore we are not using it.
