CLASSROOM USE OF LASERS AND PROJECTORS AS TOOLS OF ENHANCING SECONDARY-SCHOOL STUDENTS' MULTIMEDIA CREATIVITY (A constructivist approach to teaching and learning)

This paper aims to demonstrate the effects of a constructivist learning approach in the process of enhancing secondary-school students’ creativity. As a part of their school assignment, the students were supposed to create an artistic multimedia laser show. The creative process was based on contemporary theoretical and practical guidelines focusing on information and communication technologies. At the project teaching level, the students had to design a multimedia digital content suitable for laser and / or projector reproduction. Active research was necessary in order to complete the assignment. This paper will examine the level of students’ motivation as well as their willingness to express themselves creatively while designing a multimedia content suitable for laser and / or projector as well as using classroom appropriate IC technology (software). After the research was finished, a new word "illumation" connecting the two keywords ; illusion and automation, was coined. The term was derived from the use of electronics in light graphical displays while introducing yet another concept - illectronics.
