Learning is fostered when spoken rather than written texts are used concurrently with dynamic or static pictures in instructional settings. This is mainly caused by split attention and can be explained by the cognitive theory of multimedia learning (Mayer, 2001) or the cognitive load theory (Sweller, 1999). Numerous studies have provided evidence for modality effects (Ginns, 2005), but recently...

This study aimed to determine the feasibility level of digestive system learning multimedia developed using Android Studio as a source student self-study based on responses material experts, media biology teacher, and students. The research used 4-D model instructional development design, including define, develop, disseminate stages, limited deployment stage see students' classical completenes...

There are many open questions with respect to theory and empirical support for methods used in college teaching, especially when technology is incorporated into instruction. In this article, we report the results of a study of a multimedia-based instructional tool called Content Acquisition Podcasts (CAPs) that provides university instructors with a tool that is grounded in applied theory and h...

ICT-based learning media innovation is very relevant to support the process. Therefore, this study aims develop interactive multimedia products that are suitable for use in activities. The method research and development (R&D) which adopts ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation) model. data collection technique used was a non-test technique, with variety of instrum...

Receiving informative, well-structured, and well-designed instructions supports performance and memory in assembly tasks. We describe IBES, a tool with which users can quickly and easily create multimedia, step-by-step instructions by segmenting a video of a task into segments. In a validation study we demonstrate that the step-by-step structure of the visual instructions created by the tool co...

The split-attention principle states that when designing instruction, including multimedia instruction, it is important to avoid formats that require learners to split their attention between, and mentally integrate, multiple sources of information. Instead, materials should be formatted so that disparate sources of information are physically and temporally integrated thus obviating the need fo...

OBJECTIVE The goal of this paper is to examine how to apply the science of learning to medical education. SCIENCE OF LEARNING The science of learning is the scientific study of how people learn. Multimedia learning - learning from words and pictures - is particularly relevant to medical education. The cognitive theory of multimedia learning is an information-processing explanation of how people...

This study investigates the implementation of an Interactive Whiteboard (IWB) professional development program on instructional practices of elementary teachers. The research assesses to what extent teachers implement IWB-related strategies (e.g., technology-pedagogy correspondence, interactivity types, teaching-learning mode, differentiated learning, student-centered learning, multimedia princ...

The study aims at determining the impact of learning driven constructs on Perceived Higher Order Cognitive Skills (HOCS) improvement when using multimedia and text materials. Perceived HOCS improvement is the attainment of HOCS based on the students’ perceptions. The research experiment undertaken using a case study was conducted on 223 students split into two groups who used multimedia and tex...
