Learning Cinema Authoring System in the Classroom

Abstract

Nowadays, it’s more and more important to have authentic instruction which lets students interact with learning context and apply their knowledge into real life. In this research, we construct a learning cinema authoring system. Teachers may edit backgrounds, characters and dialogues to construct a situation which is based on teaching context. Moreover, students could have an opportunity to learn in an authentic situation. After experiment, we discover that the system could help teachers on preparing authentic learning material. Students also have better motivation when they learn in the authentic situation.
