Multimedia is the use of several different media (e.g. text, audio, graphics, animation, video, and interactivity) to convey information. Multimedia also refers to the use of computer technology to create, store, and experience multimedia content. Multimedia is also a pleonasm as media is the plural of medium, hence it is a double plural.\n\nAnimation is the optical illusion of motion created by the consecutive display of images of static elements. In film and video production, this refers to techniques by which each frame of a film or movie is produced individually. These frames may be generated by computers, or by photographing a drawn or painted image, or by repeatedly making small changes to a model unit (see claymation and stop motion), and then photographing the result with a special animation camera.

"In businesses today, it is said that approximately 85%of all data is in textual forms such as documents, database records, and computer files. The remaining 15% is in more complex forms  which traditional computer systems are not equipped to handle.  Since most databases lack the ability to process a file as complex as an image, databases typically treat such complex files as binary  large objects, or BLOBs. However, it has become apparent that these numbers are shifting, and shifting quickly. It is  predicted that by the year 2000, the proportion of complex media to textual information may, in  fact, reverse. That is, 85% of all stored data will be complex media. So, if traditional computer  systems are not equipped to handle this volume of complex data, what must be done?\n\nIn the simplest terms, media management is the ability to store, search, and  retrieve complex media such as audio, video, image, HTML, text, 3D, and any other type of non-traditional data".

Pedagogy is the science of learning, or the study of how children learn.  (FYI, adult learning is known as "andregogy").  So, I would think that multimedia pedagogy is how children (students) learn to use multimedia.   I've never heard the words multimedia and pedagogy used together, but since I teach teachers how to integrate technology in the classroom and have studied online pedagogy, I'll try to make an educated guess.  With the advent of mp3 players such as the iPod has come "podcasting".  There are also blogs, wikis, etc.   Also, the video iPod adds video to the mix.  There is also streaming video from providers such as United Streaming (Discovery Education).  These all present a new method of learning to todays students, if used for that purpose.   This means that todays' teachers should learn the best ways to use these types of multimedia to improve student achievement and learning.  I would think that multimedia pedagogy would be the way students learn using these types of multimedia products.\n\nHope this helps!

MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3, more commonly referred to as MP3, is a popular digital audio encoding and lossy compression format, designed to greatly reduce the amount of data required to represent audio, yet still sound like a faithful reproduction of the original uncompressed audio to most listeners. It was invented and standardized in 1991 by a team of engineers directed by the Fraunhofer Society in Erlangen, Germany.
