The World VISUALGRAM Online Education Centre.
What happens to those with older computers like 286, 386, 486s or earlier Pentiums that have no more that 4 mbyte of ram ? There must be millions upon millions of such machines out there - far far more than those machines with 16mbytes machines (minimum to run windows 95) !
Please try out our sample lessons placed here for free downloads. In the days
to come we will be putting more finished lessons in our page for free downloads.
We are particularly interested to develop lessons from kindergarten to
Form 5 levels for all subjects. However for starters we are specially inviting
teachers to co develop the following with us..
We are organising production of the above modules .Those who are interested
are requested to email to us their resumes and subjects particularly interested.
A digitised photos on PCX format are welcome (if available). Name your photo file
as YourName.PCX"
Our plans:
For each subject we intend to gather a group of 5 to 10 authors. These authors
must be specialists in the subject(s) selected. A discussion group through
internet (chat/email or otherwise will commence). Once finalised , the group will be
formed and training will be provided by us to start production . A small fee may be
charged for training to ensure commitment and our efforts are not wasted.
For your information , VISUALGRAM is an authoring tool that requires very little programming . The codes (at least 80%) are
generated by the computer .
We provide support to all authors with
relevent graphics , ready applets(templates) , routines
Co ordinating
Marketing
Finished products will be marketed extensively throughout the world -
through our sales channel , internet, internet Malls etc.
We strongly believe , very substantial income will be forthcoming to the
authors for years to come.Authors are expected to get a good percentage of
the income from advertisments , royalties /fees received from schools
colleges , tutorial centres , direct sales to internet users , home schoolers
etc.
We will handle all the marketing and authors may be required to provide standby
support to users through IRC CHATS, emails etc.
We invite all parties interested to download the tutorials here. The tutorials
are in Malay and you may not understand. Just however , imagine they are in
your own mother tongue , and compare them to the current way students today
are studying - plain books . If you are convinced (we are) they are more effective and 10 times better
than plain text then you will know the potential sales worldwide and you are a part of
it . It is far more effect to spend an evening or two to create a module and the
whole world can use it for years than spending an entire evening just to
prepare for a class of 40 for a session only.
Initially all lessons are to be prepared in English and we will arrange them
to be translated to other languages like Malay, Chinese , Indian, etc.
The whole of China or India can be our market because most machines in these
countries are the older machines. No place for many window based lessons.
CHRISTIAN SUNDAY SCHOOL
A call is made to those Christain authors who may want to help us to build
a resource centre for all the SUNDAY SCHOOLS in the world. We have
need for Christain teachers to provide us materials and ideas as well as to
author the modules for free downloads by Christain Sunday schools . Authors
are expected to be paid from a percentage of collections from any offering
users may give. Further details may be discussed.
Are you a specialist in your area ? A skill second to not so many in the world?
We invite you to put your skill in our multi media Visualgram format for the world
to download(chargeable or free) through the internet or distributed through
diskettes/cd Roms.
Why should you choose the Visualgram format ?
With Visualgram format , your ideas/work can be used by practically any PC
in the market. Before the age of Pentiums there are already millions upon
millions of PCs installed all over the world. Our readers format can be used
by AT286 to the latest Pentiums.
A good royalty scheme will be workded out for you to maximise returns to your
efforts.
What subject should you choose ?
Any topic from How to take care of your Backache to How to open a restaurant
will be useful.
For more details email to us at
Because our educational modules are unprotected and freely downloadable,
advertisers wishing to advertise in our modules (which will appear everytime
the lessons are used by the students all over the world), the exposure rates
are far better than banners advertisements appearing for only a few seconds.
Visualgram advertisements last for months !
Thank you.
Users may before downloading create the subdirectories first or use SETUPVIS.BAT from the above to create for you.
The above programs downloaded are self unziping .
Download the above programs/modules to their respective indicated directories.
or
If you do not wish to individually create your own subdirectories , you may download
our batch file SETUPVIS.BAT . Run this file in the subdirectory you
have downloaded (all the modules downloaded should be in the same subdirectory) .
This batch file will create all the above directories and expands the files automatically for you .
However , all the files must be downloaded to a single directory , say c:\tem directory. From there ,SETUPVIS.BAT
will create the directories in your C drive and expand all the above modules.
To run the programs, go to the directories containing the courseware. For example, to
run the Arrange.exe module , look for the batch file which in this case, is arrange.bat. Run
the batch file and press enter all the way until the program runs.
Under Windows 3.X , use program manager under FILE. Choose the RUN option.
User the browser to go to the directory . Run the batch file in the directory.
Under Windows 95 , repeat the above procedure using MY COMPUTER. Choose
C drive and select the correct directory. Select the batch file ".bat" in the directory .
Press enter .
Under DOS , go directly to the directory and run the batch file.
To quit while the programs/lessons are running use Control Q.
You may create your own groups and icons. Later version will have icons automatically
created .
Users should minimize TSRs in their computer system for AVIs to run .
For those with Windows 3.X , use memmaker to optimise the convention memory
available.
