Staley, Richard K. – 1978
The present study tested four predictions concerning the effects of instructional objectives as an adjunct aid in learning through the lecture method. First, the inclusion of objectives with the lecture was postulated to result in greater learning from the lecture. Second, objectives presentation by subsets was predicted to facilitate performance…

Goodman, H. J. A. – 1978
Among the factors least likely to be given due consideration, especially in computer assisted instruction, are student variables. Some reasons which might have hindered research activities involving student, and possibly teacher, cognitive mapping behaviors, learning styles, and media preferences as variables in experimentation are summarized: a…

Craig, Scotty D.; Gholson, Barry – 2002
Data are presented on the effects of Animated Agents on multimedia learning environments with specific concerns of split attention and modality effects. The study was a 3 (agent properties: agent only, agent with gestures, no agent) x 3 (picture features: static picture, sudden onset, animation) factorial design with outcome measures of mental…

Kerr, Brenda – 1999
This paper emphasizes research-based reasons for adding audio to multimedia presentations. The first section summarizes suggestions from a review of research on the effectiveness of audio media when accompanied by other forms of media; types of research studies (e.g., evaluation, intra-medium, and aptitude treatment interaction studies) are also…

Gunawardena, Charlotte N.; Boverie, Patricia E. – 1993
The interaction of adult learning styles and the media, methods of instruction, and group functioning in a distance learning class using audiographics and computer-mediated communication was studied and compared with similar interaction in non-equivalent traditional classes. One graduate class in theory and practice of distance education, taught…

Cifuentes, Lauren; Hughey, Jane – 1998
The purpose of this study was to examine the differential effects of computer conferencing on expository writing for undergraduate students (n=109) of seven intelligence types (linguistic, logical/mathematical, spatial, bodily/kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, and intrapersonal). Students were assigned to four treatment groups that provided…
