Strategies for Facilitating Processing of Transient Information in Instructional Videos by Using Learner Control Mechanisms
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Lin, Yi-Chun; Liu, Tzu-Chien; Kalyuga, Slava – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2022
Learner control of video presentations by using pause buttons or timeline scrollbars was suggested as helpful for learning from sources of transient information such as dynamic visualizations and spoken words. However, effective learner control could be difficult to attain without sufficient instructional support. This study developed strategies…

Chen, Chun-Ying; Yen, Pey-Ru – Interactive Learning Environments, 2021
Multimedia principles such as segmentation, learner control, and modality have been proposed to ensure animated demonstrations (AD) effectiveness. However, several studies that apply multimedia principles in different learning contexts with different learners have found boundary conditions for several effects. This study thus aimed to investigate…

Kotera, Yasuhiro; Cockerill, Vicky; Green, Pauline; Hutchinson, Lucy; Shaw, Paula; Bowskill, Nicholas – Distance Education, 2019
Online learning is crucial to success for higher education institutions. Whilst the existing literature predominantly focused on its economic advantages, we focused on its inclusivity. At an online learning unit of a UK university, the number of students with disabilities (SWD) is three times higher than the national average. Having a degree makes…

The Effect of Pacing on Learners' Perceptions of Pedagogical Agents
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Schroeder, Noah L.; Craig, Scotty D. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2017
This study examined the influence of three levels of learner control on learners' perceptions when learning with a pedagogical agent. Pedagogical agents have shown promise for improving learning and connections with learning materials within video-based instruction, and research has shown that agent design choices can influence how agents are…

The Effects of Time-Compression and Learner-Control in Multimedia Instruction
Direct linkDirect link
Pittman, Jason A. – ProQuest LLC, 2016
There is a significant gap in the body of knowledge concerning time-compressed multimedia instruction. Although research indicates that there is no loss in learning through well-designed multimedia instruction compressed at 25%, research is lacking that analyzes the effects of time-compression with learner-control included in the multimedia…

Cognitive Support for Learning Computer-Based Tasks Using Animated Demonstration
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Chen, Chun-Ying – Interactive Learning Environments, 2016
This study investigated the influence of cognitive support for learning computer-based tasks using animated demonstration (AD) on instructional efficiency. Cognitive support included (1) segmentation and learner control introducing interactive devices that allow content sequencing through a navigational menu, and content pacing through stop and…
