Rebetez, Cyril; Betrancourt, Mireille; Sangin, Mirweis; Dillenbourg, Pierre – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2010
Animated graphics are extensively used in multimedia instructions explaining how natural or artificial dynamic systems work. As animation directly depicts spatial changes over time, it is legitimate to believe that animated graphics will improve comprehension over static graphics. However, the research failed to find clear evidence in favour of…

Siller, Hans-Stefan – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2009
This paper shows the basic concept of Functional Modelling in mathematics education which has become more and more important in recent years. Hence it is necessary to think about suitable graphical methods to explain the fundamental idea of a function and its influence on values and other functions. PROGRAPH diagrams are a potentially good way to…

Larson, Ronald B. – Computers & Education, 2009
Many educators distribute either complete or incomplete handouts so students can follow along with their lectures. This research examines a teaching system that combines computer-generated graphics presentations and detailed outline handouts with blanks added. An experiment found that this system produced significantly higher short-term recall of…

Salmeron, Ladislao; Baccino, Thierry; Canas, Jose J.; Madrid, Rafael I.; Fajardo, Inmaculada – Computers & Education, 2009
Educational hypertexts usually include graphical overviews, conveying the structure of the text schematically with the aim of fostering comprehension. Despite the claims about their relevance, there is currently no consensus on the impact that hypertext overviews have on the reader's comprehension. In the present paper we have explored how…

Psycharis, Giorgos; Latsi, Maria; Kynigos, Chronis – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2009
This paper reports on a case-study design experiment in the domain of fraction as number-measure. We designed and implemented a set of exploratory tasks concerning comparison and ordering of fractions as well as operations with fractions. Two groups of 12-year-old students worked collaboratively using paper and pencil as well as a specially…

Manches, Andrew; O'Malley, Claire; Benford, Steve – Computers & Education, 2010
This research aims to explore the role of physical representations in young children's numerical learning then identify the benefits of using a graphical interface in order to understand the potential for developing interactive technologies in this domain. Three studies are reported that examined the effect of using physical representations…

Aspillaga, Macarena – Journal of Educational Technology Systems, 1992
Provides recommendations for designing computer screens that will have positive effects on readability and learning. Topics discussed include the use of capital versus lower case letters; interlinear space; line length; and strategies that aid recall, including the use of chunks and margins, and the location of information in relation to graphics.…

ChanLin, Lih-Juan – Journal of Instructional Psychology, 1996
Describes a study of college students that explored the effect of integrating metaphorical strategies in various graphic representations for learning biotechnology concepts. Highlights include student motivation, the use of a criterion-referenced test, and student attitudes as determined through interviews and observations. (Author/LRW)

Anderson-Inman, Lynne; Zeitz, Leigh – Computing Teacher, 1993
Describes the use of computer-generated concept maps using a new genre of graphics programs that allows students to create, alter and expand maps as they acquire more subject matter knowledge. Four examples of increasingly complex concept maps developed by a high school student studying cellular biology are discussed and illustrated. (Contains 19…

Chanlin, Lih-Juan – International Journal of Instructional Media, 1999
Describes a study of college students that was conducted to examine the effectiveness of integrating different computerized visual-presentation strategies in learning different contents; the effect of identical presentation strategies on students possessing different levels of prior knowledge; and whether the use of different visual strategies…

Schroeder, Eileen E.; Grabowski, Barbara L. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1995
Describes a study of undergraduates that compared navigational study strategies, the extent of lesson coverage, and attitudes about learning with three types of hypermedia lessons to examine how learners use different types of graphical browsers in a learner-controlled hypertext system to construct personalized representations of the content…

Strang, Harold R. – Collegiate Microcomputer, 1988
Describes a series of microcomputer-based laboratory exercises that are designed to assist undergraduate students in acquiring basic psychological concepts in memory retention. Mnemonics used in the exercises are explained, and computer-generated tabular and graphic displays designed for use in classroom demonstrations are described. (Author/LRW)

Aspillaga, Macarena – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1991
Describes a study of undergraduates that examined the effects on retention of the screen location of information displayed in computer-assisted instruction (CAI) for Spanish. Three treatment groups are described: (1) text was relevant to graphical information; (2) text was at the upper middle section of the screen; and (3) text was random. (32…

Park, Ok-choon – Educational Technology Research and Development, 1998
Investigates the effects of two instructional strategies, visual display (animation, and static graphics with and without motion cues) and contextual presentation, in the acquisition of electronic troubleshooting skills using computer-based instruction. Study concludes that use of visual displays and contextual presentation be based on the…
