Throughout the years, we witnessed the serious negative environmental impacts of improper waste disposal and been experiencing flood, pollution ang other disasters. The way we dispose our waste is troubling. What is worse, is it would seem that waste disposal has become more careless that outsize consequences of our global waste problem manifests itself in relation to our marine life and water ways. Human health is also at risk through our inaction. If we do not dispose our waste correctly, in the end that will be our downfall as it is for our environment and wildlife in the ecosystems we share.

That's why we've decided to create a campaign about proper waste disposal to raise awareness. To enlighten our minds and to touch everyone's heart to be mindful in disposing their wastes. It explains the importance of our health, how it will improve air and water quality and reduce greenhouse effect. We can help conserve natural resources and the effects of reducing, reusing and recycling. Learning proper waste disposal is a start in saving Mother Earth.

"Progress is impossible without a change and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything." So be one of us in preventing pollution, flood and more.

Online Learning vs. Traditional Learning Approach

                                     THE PROBLEM AND ITS SCOPE

Background of the study

        Nowadays, using of technologies is the way to communicate with others. Regardless of the obstacle posed by low naturalness media, student using those media to report or perform collaborative task may achieve the same or better task-related outcomes than the students using media with higher degrees of naturalness. The degree of similarity is the medium with the face-to-face medium. The face-to-face medium is presented as the medium enabling the highest possible level of communication naturalness. Media naturalness theory predicts that any electronic communication medium allowing to exchange of significantly less or more communicative stimuli per unit of time than the face-to-face medium will pose cognitive to communication. In other words, media naturalness theory places the face-to-face medium at the center of a one-dimensional scale of naturalness, where Email, internet conferencing, using social medias and etc. are associated with decreases in naturalness. On the other hand, media thus a great part in our lives, it makes our daily lives easier.

         Moreover, multimedia supported instruction is a new field which is getting the attention of the students. Multimedia technology is becoming increasingly popular in the field of education. Interactive multimedia courseware is adding a new and interesting dimension to both teaching and learning. This new approach can effectively complement the conventional methods of teaching and learning. The multi-sensory input of this media provides possibilities for higher performance ratings and higher retention. With effective feedback, this method makes learning and teaching more meaningful. Students with different learning abilities can work at their own pace. A significant aspect of multimedia in education is related to authoring or developing multimedia. Multimedia authoring as a form of computing has made it possible for students and teachers to construct knowledge and discover worlds which do not exist in conventional methods of learning or teaching. As a new type of teaching methods, it can make teachers impart knowledge to the students in the most natural and receptive form of multimedia instead of the traditional blackboards and chalk and dry theory sermon. This kind of teaching method not only extends the amount of information that people receive and makes learning more interesting, but also increase the learning initiative. Therefore education is one of the application fields that multi-media technology can maximize its power and influence. It demonstrates its charm to people in a new teaching model, complicated concepts and processes can often be conveyed much more simply in a visual format, and evidence suggests that use of visual media can enhance problem-solving motivation, understanding and the expression of ideas.

           In order to gain insight into the changing learning environment and how multimedia is affecting learning, some discussion about trends in instructional design should be considered. Traditionally, learning was relied on a textbook and lecture format for the transfer of knowledge.

           The student is a passive recipient of knowledge under this format. Traditional schooling treats learning like a savings bank where knowledge is deposited for future use (Papert,2003).Much of this knowledge remains inert, and meaning is not accessed even though its relevant for problem solving. When knowledge is acquired through a problem-solving mode, instead of a factual mode, the information learned is less likely to remain inert (Hasselbring,2000).Students must understand why, when, and how various skills and concepts are relevant or the knowledge will not  be used. Students need the ability to think independently. They should be able to identify and define problems and develop strategies for solving these problems on their own rather than simply responding to the problems posed by others. One way to help students become independent thinkers is to anchor instruction in meaningful problem-solving environment (Hasselbring,2007).Example of Problem-solving environments include scenarios, case studies, hands-on projects etc. Providing students with meaningful problems to solve, makes the students more active participants in the learning environment. Students can see the implications of their new knowledge and learn the appropriate conditions to apply this knowledge. Providing students with a context-rich, problem-solving environment can increase learning and retention. Computers, especially computer-based multimedia systems, can provide problem-rich environments that help students learn.

         Teacher has many examples of teaching presented to their students. These makes an enormous difference in the approach to the teaching itself and to the students. These days, there are great possibilities in what a teacher can do with his or her students, in terms of teaching methods. With freedom in teaching, there is enormous number of ideas to be used in the class. Teacher’s task is to compare, analyze, and evaluate the method used in order to motivate the students and to make the learning as effective as possible. In this study, it focuses on some techniques commonly used today.

          However, after reading this thesis or many other publication on methodology, one cannot say which method is the best or the worst. As Kenneth T. Henson claims, usually the methods are better for some purpose, e.g. understanding transfer, but there is no method simply the best for everything (Henson 2).Michael J. Wallace believes that a central factor in the choice of methods is the learner’s needs and character: Something that works for one person well, but the same method ,might not work at all for another person(Wallace 42).Using a variety of methods, and to come up the methods more effective. This study will illustrate the real-life situation of a student.

           The world right now is engaged of high process developing technology. As the matter of fact, it is very evident that gadget has been part of individual’s day by day basis. Comparing traditional approach and technology based. What is the effective medium of instruction. The purpose of this study is to find out multimedia supported instruction affects the leaner performance related to presentation skills and effective writing. It also discusses the need of multimedia technology in education, the problems which have led to the proposed study, the objectives and significance of the Investigation.
