                   Assessment  in a Constructivist, Technology-Supported Learning
            In this lesson I learned that complex learning cannot be assessed or evaluated using any single measure.We  must examine both the processes & products of students learning. We should go beyond memorizing for tests,we should not study only for a passing score and a passing grade. We should study to learned and gain knowledge.
            In a technology-supported classroom, the students learn from and with technology. Technology is seen as source of information or the teacher enable the students to learn.

                     The Project-based Learning  Multimedia as a Teaching-Learning Strategy
           In this lesson I learned that the effective use of project-based multimedia learning requires planning. Planning is very important, it involves: clarification of goals and objectives, determining how much time is needed and extent of students' involvement in decision making, setting of forms of collaboration, identifying & determining what resources are needed, and deciding on the mode to measure what students learn.
          There are steps on the process of multimedia cretions:
1. Planning 
2. Researching
3. Organizing
4.  Developing
5. Communicating
6. Evaluating
          In this lesson also I learned that we should use the strategy effectively to enable the students to remember and understand better content as they perform real-world task.
