The background of this research is that the lecture design is not optimal so that students can think critically in understanding social studies material assisted by audio-visual media. The design of ...this research is Quasi-Experimental with a Non-Equivalent Control Group Design. The population is the second-semester students of the 2020/2021 academic year. The sampling technique used a saturated sample, Class II C as the experimental class and II D as the control class. Test the hypothesis by t-test and the data obtained by the value of tcount = 1,729 with a difficulty level of 5% with the test criteria if tcount> ttable then H1 is accepted and H0 is rejected. The experimental class test results averaged 74.5 and the control class averaged 65. The standard deviation of the control class (S=19.9) was greater than the standard deviation of the experimental class (S=14,4). The value of t-test is tcount = 1,729 and ttable = 1,686. The results of the study prove that the use of the Problem Based Learning model with the aid of Audio Visual media has an effect on students' critical thinking skills in learning the basic concepts of social studies at Adzkia University.
El siglo XVIII conoció la emergencia de un extenso repertorio de artefactos que, adoptando formas tan diversas como las de un cajón, un carromato, una habitación o una infraestructura monumental, ...ofrecieron un amplio abanico de experiencias visuales, incluyendo la experiencia inmersiva en la perspectiva espacial, la tridimensionalidad o la sensación de movimiento. Acompañadas por comentarios explicativos o música, dichas máquinas ópticas recorrieron las ferias y las plazas, o se instalaron en salones y edificios, evocando paisajes, vistas de ciudades o acontecimientos de actualidad. El presente trabajo de carácter exploratorio avanza en la identificación y análisis de las evidencias documentales relacionadas con los medios visuales de carácter inmersivo localizados en España datados entre 1734 y 1908: entre la aparición del término «mundinovi» en el Diccionario Autoridades de la Real Academia Española (RAE) y el estreno del Cinefluo. El texto pone en valor una aproximación a su historia para así fortalecer el conocimiento sobre la arqueología de los medios de comunicación visual en España.
The Eighteenth Century witnessed the emergence of an extensive array of artifacts. These artifacts took on diverse forms such as boxes, wagons, rooms, or a monumental infrastructure. They provided a wide range of visual experiences, including immersive illusions in spatial perspective, three-dimensionality, and the sensation of movement. Accompanied by an explanatory commentary or music, these optical devices toured fairs and squares, or found installations in halls and buildings. They evoked landscapes, urban vistas, and contemporary events. This exploratory work advance into the identification and analysis of documentary evidence related to immersive visual media located in Spain. The timeframe examined spans from 1734 to 1908, encompassing the period between the introduction of the term “mundinovi” in the Dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy and the premiere of Cinefluo. The purpose of this text is to present a historical approach that aims to enrich our understanding of the archaeology of visual communication media in Spain.
This article introduces you to the general themes and questions of this special issue. We argue that history and visual media have long been central to humanitarian communication, but that the ...overlaps between history, visual media, and humanitarian communication have seldom been addressed. A focus on those overlaps, we suggest, not only demonstrates that critical historical inquiry has much to offer for professional communication specialists, it also sheds new light on the workings, changes and persistence of humanitarian narratives over the twentieth century.
In recent years, with the development of computer and network technologies, digital video and image information is emerging more and more, the information era based on multimedia information services ...is coming to us, and people’s demand for visual media content such as video and images is becoming more and more extensive. In this paper, we use the Gaussian mixture model pixel detection technology method and image detection technology to study visual media to meet the various needs of users. SVM is used to perform classification tests on 3688 Chinese painting images and 4827 general images. The result is that the positive detection rate of national painting images is 87.25%, and the rate of non-national painting images being wrongly detected as national painting images is 7.63%. This indicates that the CCV feature also has a relatively good discriminative property for national painting images. The focus is on providing technical methods for the design of various visual media shapes such as sports and art, thus providing solutions to help users better access and use the digital multimedia information they are interested in.
