http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hE32EXmQ-iU This is a YouTube video that looks at a program called Creaza. This is a free program that is a multimedia creating tool. You can create webcomics, movies, audio and mindmaps. It provides opportunities to create a whole multimedia process for free. The program has several features that Camtasia does. The limits, with free use include a small space to store data and you can only share what you create through links unless you buy the program. Again, the video itself falls more into behavioral activity. It is focused on presenting what the program has to offer and a little about how it works. However, the program itself would fall into cognitive activity. It provides a mind map area to organize your thoughts and to get your ideas together. You can add pictures and video to the mindmap so that all of your idea are in one place. It then allows a space for creativity which ties into human behavior which is a goal of cognitive learning within multimedia (Mayer, 2009).
