University students increasingly watch animated math videos that use dynamic visualizations as part of their learning process. Despite students' positive appreciation, little is known about how these visualizations contribute to learning outcomes. This paper examines the relationship between learning outcomes and students' experiences with dynamic…

Research on the effectivity of PowerPoint presentations as an adjunct to theoretical and practical content during university lectures has garnered significant yet inconclusive findings. Specifically, how multimodal academic content should be organised to aid communication remains unclear. Legitimation Code Theory (LCT) introduces the concept of…

Previous research has established that children's experiences of language during in-person interactions (e.g. individual and cumulative experiences of structural choices) implicitly shape language learning. We investigated whether children also implicitly learn structural choices during online interactions, and whether this is affected by the…

In the rapidly evolving landscape of higher education and adult learning, asynchronous video-based online learning has not only become the new norm but has also emerged as the cornerstone of instructional delivery for Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs). Despite its widespread adoption, this learning mode confronts a critical challenge: the…

With the rapid expansion of social media, sports YouTube programs have become increasingly ubiquitous. The aim of this study is to investigate the association among college students' participation in sports YouTube engagement, psychosocial functions of sport, and well-being. In the spring semester of 2023, we recruited 243 Korean college students…

In recent years, a multitude of innovative educational videos focusing on mathematics and employing dynamic visualization techniques have been published on YouTube. From a sample of videos, we develop a taxonomy of didactical roles of dynamic visuals and supporting animation techniques. The taxonomy is constructed through an open coding approach,…

This study explores the need for producing Thai Diorama documentaries to enhance learning experiences. Based on a survey of 50 respondents, the research focuses on three main aspects: content and presentation, graphic design and presentation techniques, and utilization. The findings show that the overall demand for such documentaries is very high.…

Multimodal assignments are becoming a prevalent strategy to enable assessment of student learning (Reid et al., 2016). However, due to their inherent complexity, supporting faculty members and students in adopting and implementing these types of assignments can be challenging (Wysocki et al., 2019). To overcome this, a group of 'third space'…

Technology enhanced feedback methods such as video feedback are increasingly employed with a notable shift towards embracing remote means of communication during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. Greater use of distance and electronic learning can result in a lack of personalisation which students find challenging. Feedback which uses the spoken…

Purpose: This study aims to examine the effectiveness of Web-based interactive (WBI) presentations in reducing students' cognitive load and increasing their situational interest in learning. Traditionally, many learning practices fail to optimize students' cognitive resources by presenting irrelevant content and activities. However, practical…

The empirical evidence concerning the question whether an instructor should be presented on online lecture slides is equivocal and two lines of theoretical reasoning exist. On the one hand, the instructor may distract from the content, thereby hampering learning; on the other hand, the instructor may function as a social cue that triggers a more…

The current study was designed to investigate how varied time of day (ToD) could affect the acquisition of basketball game actions from different video formats. First-year physical education students (i.e., novice practitioners) were quasi-randomly assigned to three experimental conditions: continuous video, macro-segmented video, or…

Cognitive load is a critical internal state associated with learners' learning process and significantly influences learning outcomes. With the worldwide popularity of video-based learning (VBL), tracking real-time cognitive load variations becomes more and more important for the timely provision of adaptive learning support during the learning…

Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) describes different ways to communicate that supplement or compensate for the impairment of individuals with complex communication needs. AAC can utilize computerized devices, with visual scene display (VSD) or video visual scene display (VVSD) as a communication mode. Recent literature…

Background: Online videos featuring human-generated drawing are increasingly popular in education. However, their effectiveness may vary depending on learners' prior knowledge, and further research is needed to confirm their advantages over other common instructional videos. Objectives: The primary goal of this study is to investigate the impact…
