RealShow is a research-based project. It provides a free software and video sharing network to facilitate the process of producing and sharing quality and accessible video content for learners in developing regions, particularly in the Arab World. Although producing video tutorials for learners is not a new idea, few simple and efficient solutions have been applied to help educators prepare accessible video and flash content, particularly for those who are deaf or tend to be visual. The software provides a simple technique to integrate popular PowerPoint slides, freehand drawings, text typing, web pages, and direct teacher’s video view in one single window. It allows teachers create video and flash content using several translation techniques, including facial expressions, natural gestures, and sign language, which help convey messages. RealShow encourages teachers in developing nations to produce video content using a cost-effective solution and share their content via RealShow website and electronic or mobile media, which can be used to bridge many gaps. RealShow helps educators and presenters apply principles for the design of multimedia materials and human cognitive processing in delivering their PowerPoint slides. It takes advantage of the dual-channel structure of the human information processing system by means of text, pictures and audio. It promotes active cognitive processing by allowing the presenter to guide the processes of selecting, organizing, and integrating information. RealShow gives visual aids and fosters human contact between the presenter and the audience. The presenter can clearly identify the main points and communicate in a way that will have the desired impact on the audience through texts, illustrations, slides, and visual presence of the presenter.

Flickr is a photo management and sharing online application that provides a place to share photos and meet people with similar interests, even if photography is not their focus. Using Flickr, users can upload, download, tag, rate, and c om ment on photos. Users can manage and organize images, and create private or public groups to cultivate a sense of c om munity.   Flickr offers a vast collection of images that are not available elsewhere, and its collaborative tools have made it popular in higher education. Flickr contains imagery that can be used in teaching to help develop visual literacy skills. University instructors have begun using Flickr images in their courses to share, critique, and analyze visual information. In addition, the design of Flickr intentionally promotes the development of community. The ability to engage users in a conversation about a photo, and to u...

رسالة من صديق في أحد الأيام دخل صبي يبلغ من العمر 10 سنوات الى مقهى وجلس على الطاوله ، فوضعت الجرسونة كأساً من الماء أمامه فسئل الصبي : بكم آيسكريم بالكاكاو ؟ أجابته : بخمس دولارات. فأخرج الصبي يده من جيبه وأخذ يعد النقود فسألها مرة أخرى : حسنا ً وبكم الآيسكريم لوحده فقط بدون كاكاو ؟ في هذهِ الأثناء كان هناك الكثير من الزبائن ينتظرون خلو طاوله في المقهى للجلوس عليها فبدأ صبر الجرسونه بالنفاذ ، فأجابته بفظاظه : بـ أربع دولارات. فعد الصبي نقوده وقال: سآخذ الايسكريم العادي فأحضرت الجرسونة له الطلب ، ووضعت فاتورة الحساب على الطاولة وذهبت أنهى الصبي الآيسكريم ودفع حساب الفاتورة وغادر المقهى وعندما عادت الجرسونة إلى الطاولة إغرورقت عيناها بالدموع أثناء مسحها للطاوله حيث وجدت بجانب الطبق الفارغ .. دولار واحد أترون .. لقد حرم الصبي نفسه الآيسكريم بالكاكاو حتى يوفر لنفسه دولاراً يكرم به الجرسونة. ما دعاني لطرح هذا الموقف أو القصه القصيره هو أننا كثيرا مانقع في حرج أو نتسبب في شحن نفسي تجاه أناس آخرين نحمل لهم الكثير من الحب والتقدير ولكن الاستعجال بإصدار حكمنا عليهم يتسب...
