Interactive Media Steer in Educational Printing Materials

Abstract

The development of digital technology has been highly accelerated since the 2000s. New media environments, which increase interactivity, have been provided to users. With technological convergence, all environments in the category of new media have had the opportunity to work together. With the support of digital technologies, traditional media have also started to include elements that will allow interaction. Support of digital technology does not allow us to see that traditional media is an interactive media but it permits interactive media guidance. Newspapers, books, and magazines, which are located in the category of traditional media, support readers by directing them to interactive media with augmented reality applications. Augmented reality applications in printed materials has been used in many fields. In particular, course books, which protects the existence as the basic learning material of distance learning, can support its content with augmented reality applications. The features of augmented reality applications that allow the presentation of additional information, such as visual, audio, animated text, are discussed in this chapter.
