Abstract

MultiMedia Technologies (MMT) are all that kind of technological tools that make us able to transmit information in a very large meaning, transforming information into knowledge through stimulating the cognitive schemes of learners and leveraging the learning power of human senses. This transformation can acquire several different forms: from digitalized images to virtual reconstructions, from simple text to iper-texts that allow customized, fast, and cheap research within texts; from communications framework like the Web to tools that enhance all our sense, allowing complete educational experiences (Piacente, 2002b).
