    CHAPTER I: INTRODUCTION

    NEED FOR THE STUDY

    The word "education" is derived from the Latin. Education In its general

    sense is a form oflearningin which theknowledge,skills,andhabitsof a group of

    people are transferred from one generation to the next through teaching, training,

    or research.

    The word Technology is derived from the Greek.Technology the making,

    modification, usage, and knowledge of tools, machines,

    techniques,crafts,systems, and methods of organization, in order to solve a

    problem, improve a pre-existing solution to a problem, achieve a goal, handle an

    applied input/output relation or perform a specific function.

    Ineducation,instructional technology is "the theory and practice of design,

    development, utilization, management, and evaluation of processes and resources

    for learning.

    The pupil`s among all around the world are very much interested in media,

    now a days most of the student s got bored in traditional teaching in the class

    rooms, but the students are very much interested in cinema, T.V, video and cell

    phones media reaching a la

    Re population more than traditional method of teaching, specially audio

    visual medium plays a vital role in communicating the message exactly, so

    introducing instructional video packages in class room will make a great impact

    result, hence arrives need for this study.

    VIDEO PROGRAMME

    Video is medium of communication that delivers more information per

    second than any other element of multimedia now a days lot of video we see on

    TV and in movies has digital components.

    Video is based on the electronic principle the video is combination of sound

    and images with movement (or) video medium incorporates sound and images

    movement. Video is capable resolution of full picture images skill and moving.

    Video has come to be recognition as a powerful medium of communication

    It can easily attract others.

    STAGES IN THE PRODUCTION OF INSTRUCTION VIDEO

    DEFINING OBJECTIVES AND SELECTING CONTENTS OUTLINES

    Once the topic for writing a script has been assigned, the scriptwriter should

    be informed about the target audience, their age level and specific objectives and

    the programme.

    This is to be followed by deciding the content to be presented in order to

    achieve the established objective. Specifying objective and visualizing content in

    detail is an essential discipline and the production process. At this stage, the

    detailed visual ideas on which the programmed will be based are evolved.How

    can we convey that concept visually How can we grasp the attention of the

    viewers?This stage demands creativity and imagination.

    The success of the programme will heavily depend on the care taken at this stage.

    11

  • 8/12/2019 Santhosh Project 03.04.2014

    20/62

    RESEARCH AND SELECTION OF MATERAILS

    Research is important to all programmes. Finding information from

    books, periodicals, reports, atlases, encyclopedias, dictionaries and from

    experts in the field, checking details, location pictures, selection film

    locations etc are the part of research once the materials have been collected

    after research, the relevant materials which match the content and lead to the

    achievement for the desired objectives can be finally selected for making the

    programme.

    SELECTION OF RESOURCES TO PRESENTS THE CONTENT

    The scriptwriter has to be very imagination in his selection of resource

    to match the contents and the objective. It is the most important step in the

    process. It is the most programme depends in the imaginative use of visual

    resources, keeping in mind the time and money available for the programme.

    This process of selecting resources implies the conversion of the programme

    contents into suitable and appropriate visually. It needs imagination,research and experience to accomplish this job successfully and to achieve

    the desired quality of the progamme.

    ORGANISATION OF RESOURCES INTO A PROGRAMME STRUCTURE

    This is the process of giving the programme a shape and a form visual

    treatment. It includes deciding and how the ports of the programme will be

    linked together and knit into a natural sequence, so that the programme may

    have varying interest levels and appear to be ending from one sequence to

    another.

    12

  • 8/12/2019 Santhosh Project 03.04.2014

    21/62

    At this stage it is helpful to draw a time line of the programme, showing how much

    time is to be spent on each element programme keeping in view the way the

    selected resources are to be used.

    DEVELOPING A STORY BOARD AND THE FINAL SCRIPT

    All the visual themes along with necessary lines thought out and

    planned by the scriptwriter need to be communicated to the producers for

    understanding the shots and logical sequencing of the programme. This

    could easily be communicated if the scriptwriter presents his ideas in the

    form of a story board for developing the story board, the scriptwriter may

    divide the white sheet of paper into two vertical columns.

    RESOURCES FOR VIDEO PRODUCTION

    Video is primarily a visual medium. Naturally, therefore, the quality

    of any video programme will be determined by the quality and variety of

    visual and other resources that have gone into its making.

    For purposes of convenience the resources for the video production can be

    classified into the following major categories:-

    VISUALS

    By pictures, here, we mean any kind of visuals that can be put in front

    of a video camera. These may include still photographs, slides, filmstrips,

    over head transparencies, especially prepared graphics such as charts,

    diagrams, maps, outlines, summaries, pictures from books, cartoons,

    captions with lettering o them.

    PEOPLE

    Most television is about people, people telling us things, people being

    interviewed, people acting, people laughing, people weeping, People playing

    Instruments and dancing, people singing, people playing games, people

    doing all kinds of things form mending bicycles to telling joke and people

    trying to persuade us take of their point of view.

    THINGS

    The range of things shown on television is infinite, elephants, puppets,

    models, machines of all kinds, toys, furniture, bridges, buildings, airplanes,

    the sun, the moon and soon.

    DRAMA

    Drama is also classified by many as one of the important resources for

    television; it may be very simple with no studio set or very complex ones

    using several setting.

    FILM

    Films constitute a very important resource for television the film can be put

    on a projector and beamed straight at a television camera.

    TECHNICAL TERMS IN VIDEO PRODUCTION

    A video programme consists of a series of pictures that is the pictures keepcharging in quick succession. The charge is not just for variety, but each

    picture has its own message all the pictures must synchronize with sound.

    14

  • 8/12/2019 Santhosh Project 03.04.2014

    23/62

    GUIDELINES FOR VIDEO SCRIPT WRITING

    1. Use active voice as far as possible.2. Use specific words and example, wherever possible, to established specific

    relationships.

    3. Try more to start with a negative sentence.4. Sometimes, we may write just one sentence as commentary and then charge

    three/four similar slides/shots in succession.

    ADVANTAGES OF INSTRUCTIONAL VIDEO PROGRAMME

    1. It creates motivation in learning among the learners.2. It can brief aptidudinal changes among the learners.3. Video regarding of microteaching lesson and presentation lesson it will be

    helpful to improve communication as well as teaching skills.

    4. It closes to reality.5. It can display in fact or slow motion.6.

    Close circuit television allows us to teach in class room thorough wherevideo camera live programme captured in a laboratory or at any place.

    7. The video has made important contribution in open distanced learning.REMOTE SENSING

    Remote sensing can be defined as the collection of data about an object from

    a distance. Humans and many other animals accomplish this task with their eyes or

    by their sense of smell or hearing. Geographers use the remote sensing as a tool to

    monitor or measure phenomena on the earth`s lithosphere, hydrosphere,

    atmosphere and biosphere.

    15

  • 8/12/2019 Santhosh Project 03.04.2014

    24/62

    Remote sensing of the environment by geographers is usually done with the help

    of mechanical devices known as sensors.

    SENSORS

    The sensors have a greatly improved ability to receive and record

    information about an Earth object without any physical contact. Often, these

    sensors are positioned in helicopters, planes, and satellites. The sensors record

    information about an object by measuring the electromagnetic energy that is

    reflected back and radiated from the object on the earth surface.

    COMPONENTS OF REMOTE SENSING

    The four basic components of a remote sensing system are target, energy

    source, transmission path, and a sensor. The target is an object or material that is

    being imaged. The components in the system work together to measure and record

    information about the target without actually coming into physical contact with it.

    The energy source provides electromagnetic energy source can be classified in to

    two.

    1) PASSIVE SYSTEM (that is sun, irradiance from earth`s materials)2) ACTIVE SYSTEM (that is irradiance from artificially generated energy

    sources such as radar).

    The present study was designed as a single group pre test, treatment and

    post test with a view to find out the effectiveness of Video Instructional

    programme in terms of gain performance. Fifty pupils from the Municipal high

    school, Pudu Street, kitchipalayam, in Salem District served as the samples of the

    experiments. Criterion referenced achievement test on Remote sensing were

    involved in the lesson developed in the study. The criterion referenced

    achievement test was administered as pretest and scored using the keys already

    fixed. The pre test scores and post test scores for each in pupil were

    consolidated in a master table along with the coding of five independent

    (population) variables involved in the study. Percentage analysis was alsoemployed in order to verify the hypotheses formulated and to answer the questions

    raised in the form of the objectives of the study. Meaningful conclusions were

    drawn, educational implications worked out and areas of research for further

    explorations noted down.
