INTRODUCTION:

The use of powerful multimedia technology helps in revealing the intricacy of the immune response. This tool can also be used in science and research teaching for which the universities are trying to develop the multimedia technology so as to sophisticate the way of teaching. Multimedia can be used in teaching in a way where it shows the simulation of the processes, helps in knowing and better understanding of the structures through representation of multidimensional structures and also helping the students to make them better understand the concepts involved in the subject. Multimedia has a crucial importance in helping the students learn the subject and this is because the multimedia technology combines the text, images, video, sound and also the animation which leads to the cohesive experience to the students that makes the students effectively gain the knowledge. A student can have a view of the subject through the multimedia technology that can be provided through the internet which makes it available online or it can also be made available through CDs or DVDs.

Some of the software tools which can be used for the development of the multimedia education are quick time, flash, director/shockwave, javascript, java, lightwave.

Quick Time: It is an authoring tool and we can make use of it for the purpose of editing, building, modifying and for the displaying of the videos. Quick Time also helps in making of the movies which used the still images and the layered images. But the making of the movies using the Quick time is limited where the student interaction and the control have certain limitations like the students can play, pause and rewind the video.
