3.    Media Technology Computer-Based Results
Computer-based technology is a way to produce or deliver materials by using the resources of microprocessor-based. The difference between medium generated by koputer-based technology with the two other technologies is that information / material is stored in digital form, not in print or visual. Various types of computer-based technology applications in teaching is generally known as Computer Assisted Instruction (computer aided instruction). Applications include drills and practice (exercises to help students master the material that has been studied previously), tutorial (step by step presentation of the subject matter), games and simulations (practice applying new knowledge and skills learned).

4.    The Media Results Combined Print and Computer Technology.
Technology combined result is a way to produce and deliver materials that combine the use of some form of computer-controlled media. Learning media that will be made ​​in this paper is a computer-based instructional media.
