  12. Advantages ofmultimedia in education Searchable: Search engines are readily available and can be incorporated into Internet sites so that the entire resource can be searched by key word or phrase.

  13. Advantages ofmultimedia in education Diverse Authorship: The viewpoints of people and organisations from many different perspectives are available on the Internet. Some sites invite participants to contribute to the sources of information, as well as use them.

  14. Advantages ofmultimedia in education Interactive: Some Internet sites allow various types of interaction with the user, including simulation, surveys and self-paced tutorials.

  15. Advantages ofmultimedia in education Asynchronous interaction: Unlike face-to-face or telephone conversations, electronic communication does not require participants to respond immediately. As a result, interactions can be more succinct and to-the-point, discussion can stay more on-track, and people can get a chance to craft their responses. This can lead to more thoughtful and creative conversations.
