Photo Collage as an example of effective teaching
The ability of the teacher to walk the students through the steps of their assignment is an excellent way to make sure the students have been provided with the means to succeed in their assignment. The technology in the video is outdated by today's standards; for example, digital cameras are today cheaper and of higher quality than those in the video. However, the principles in the assignment are quite relevant to using technology in instruction today. Especially worthy of note is the teacher providing the guidelines by which the students will be assessed. Also of note is the importance the teacher put on keeping information about students as private as possible.

Multimedia approaches towards instruction provide opportunities to expand the effectiveness of the instruction. For example, usage of music can provide information on the topic of the song (as shown in the video), or about the culture that produced the song.
Usage of internet resources can quickly provide information of every type to enhance instruction. Any number of examples given in this regard is almost certianly not enough to fully describe the flexibility internet access has given. However, some example may include meteorological data, as well as scans of historical sources or music files and photographs.
