Xiaoxue Leng; Fuxing Wang; Richard E. Mayer; Tingting Zhao – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2024
This study investigated the effectiveness of visual training or verbal training on how to use a text-picture processing strategy for learning from computer-based multimedia instructional material. Sixty-nine university students were randomly assigned to the verbal training group (students received text-based instruction for a text-picture…

Susac, Ana; Planinic, Maja; Bubic, Andreja; Jelicic, Katarina; Palmovic, Marijan – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2023
Previous studies have shown the important role of different representations in the teaching and learning of physics. In this study, we used eye tracking to investigate the effect of different representations on the process of answering conceptual questions. We compared students' scores and eye-tracking measures on isomorphic questions which…

Ito, Kiwako; Wong, Wynne – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2019
Two eye-tracking experiments tested (a) whether L2 learners benefit from the consistency of input modality (auditory instead of written processing instruction [PI] training) and (b) whether they benefit from training using the same voice as the test voice. Results confirmed a robust effect of PI training on picture-selection accuracy, yet the…

Kim, Sunjung; Wiseheart, Rebecca; Walden, Patrick R. – Journal of Postsecondary Education and Disability, 2018
The current study tested the effects of multimedia instructional designs (text+picture, audio+picture, and text+audio+picture) on retention and transfer of information in college students with and without dyslexia while tracking students' eye movements. After controlling for verbal ability, the dyslexia group differed from controls only in the…

Coppi, Alessia Eletta; Oertel, Catharine; Cattaneo, Alberto – Vocations and Learning, 2021
Visual expertise is a fundamental proficiency in many vocations and many questions have risen on the topic, with studies looking at experts and novices differences' in observation (e.g., radiologists) or at ways to help novices achieve visual expertise (e.g., through annotations). However, most of these studies focus on white-collar professions…

Benati, Alessandro – Language Teaching Research, 2022
The present study explores the effects of structured input and traditional instruction on the acquisition of English causative passive forms using online measurements (eye-tracking). Previous empirical research investigating the effects of processing instruction through offline measurements (sentence and discourse) has overall shown positive…

Spit, Sybren; Andringa, Sible; Rispens, Judith; Aboh, Enoch O. – Language Learning and Development, 2022
Research consistently shows that adults engaged in tutored acquisition benefit from explicit instruction in several linguistic domains. For preschool children, it is often assumed that such explicit instruction does not make a difference. In the present study, we investigated whether explicit instruction affected young learners in acquiring a…

Lee, James F.; Doherty, Stephen – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2019
The present study compares native and nonnative processing of Spanish active and passive sentences. The nonnative speakers were tested before and after receiving processing instruction on the Spanish passive. The native speakers were tested once and provide a baseline for comparisons. We measured accuracy and response time to select the correct…

Scheiter, Katharina; Schubert, Carina; Schüler, Anne – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2018
Background: When learning with text and pictures, learners often fail to adequately process the materials, which can be explained as a failure to self-regulate one's learning by choosing adequate cognitive learning processes. Eye movement modelling examples (EMME) showing how to process multimedia instruction have improved elementary school…

Glaser, Manuela; Schwan, Stephan – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2015
While to date, multimedia research has examined mainly the learning of texts with accompanying pictures, in the current paper, 2 experiments are presented that examine the multimedia effect for pictures with accompanying spoken text. In Experiment 1, we examined whether learning is better with a multimedia presentation in which pictorial…

Rop, Gertjan; Schüler, Anne; Verkoeijen, Peter P. J. L.; Scheiter, Katharina; van Gog, Tamara – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2018
The presentation of extraneous (i.e., irrelevant or unnecessary) information may hamper learning with multimedia. The present study examined whether people can learn to ignore unnecessary information with increasing experience with the task and whether this depends on the layout of that information. In two experiments, participants learned about…

Zhu, Jiawen; Dawson, Kara; Ritzhaupt, Albert D.; Antonenko, Pavlo – Journal of Educational Multimedia and Hypermedia, 2020
This study investigated the effects of multimedia and modality design principles using a learning intervention about Australia with a sample of college students and employing measures of learning outcomes, visual attention, satisfaction, and mental effort. Seventy-five college students were systematically assigned to one of four conditions: a)…

Zhai, Xuesong; Chu, Xiaoyan; Meng, Nanxi; Wang, Minjuan; Spector, Michael; Tsai, ChinChung; Liu, Hui – Educational Technology & Society, 2022
Metacognition is regarded as a retrospective skill promoting learners' learning performance, deep thinking, and academic well-being. Stimulated Recall (SR) is regarded as a reliable approach to inspiring learners' metacognition in the classroom. However, the outbreak of COVID-19, causing widespread class suspension, may impair the effect of SR on…

Wong, Wynne; Ito, Kiwako – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2018
While previous research has shown that processing instruction (PI) can more effectively facilitate the acquisition of target structures than traditional drill practice, the processing mechanism of PI has not been adequately examined because most assessment tasks have been offline. Using eye-tracking, this two-experiment study compared changes in…

Jeffries, Tricia; Crosland, Kimberly; Miltenberger, Raymond – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2016
We tested the effectiveness of a tablet application and differential reinforcement to increase eye contact in 3 children with autism. The application required the child to look at a picture of a person's face and identify the number displayed in the person's eyes. Eye contact was assessed immediately after training, 1 hr after training, and in a…
