In the fourth lesson, I read most of my classmates' visual representations "Rain drop", which were designed very well and interesting. My classmates could complete their task by using many skills of Flash. After reading their visual representations, Daniel guided us to discuss how to design "Rain Drop". After discussing, I agreed the following points, including:
1. To get correct information is a challenge;
2. Over-reliance on the internet may be a problem;
3. To consider getting information from books, videos and discussing with experts;
4. Self-learning skills are required.
Besides, I learnt many factors which were affected the raindrop consisting of air resistance, gravity, velocity, size, angle, wind and angle, air pressure and surface tension and aero-dynamic forces.
In addition, I agreed with Mayer's suggestion, “People can learn more deeply from words and pictures than from words alone” (2005). I strongly agreed with him, especially it is very important to the mentally-handicapped children because their attention is very weak. If teachers can make their teaching materials better, I believe those resources will strengthen students' learning ability from the learning object.

Emily,
I agree with your ideas that teaching with visual aid can increase the attention of the students whose learning abilities are low. Visual will strengthen students’ learning ability from the learning object but teachers have to spend a lot of time to prepare the teaching material.

I agree with you that self-learning skills are required if we want to have great improvement in using Flash. So my group will make use of the Easter Holiday to pay more attention to the use of Flash.
Thank you for your information about factors which were affected the raindrop which consists of air resistance, gravity, velocity, size, angle, wind and angle, air pressure and surface tension and aero-dynamic forces.
