This paper studies the effect of learning efficiency through various animations in conjunction with instructional teaching of traditional Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) crafts projects. The germane cognitive load (GCL) is defined as an investment in cognitive resources for schema development and automation. This study employs four…

Ünal Çakiroglu – Learning: Research and Practice, 2024
This quasi-experimental study aims to compare the effects of using combinations of written text, animation and narration in multimedia courseware. 114 sixth grade students assigned in three conditions were participated in the study. Three versions of the courseware with combinations of animation, text and narration were developed taking modality…

Demir, Bora; Karabiyik, Ceyhun; Özdemir, Muzaffer; Baturay, Meltem – Journal of Educational Technology, 2022
This study examines the effect of modality and redundancy in an Augmented Reality (AR) based language learning environment for teaching vocabulary in a foreign language. The study aims to determine the effectiveness of the redundancy and modality principles, examine the relationship between cognitive load, satisfaction, anxiety, willingness, and…

In this study the impact of a mobile augmented reality learning environment on motivation, learning effects and cognitive load was tested. Students participated in a two-hour history lesson while using their smartphones to turn static pictures into animations with an Augmented Reality (AR) application. Interest, perceived competence and perceived…

Yang, Chi; Jen, Chun-Hui; Chang, Chun-Yen; Yeh, Ting-Kuang – Educational Technology & Society, 2018
This study aimed to examine the relative effectiveness of using an animation versus static pictures in terms of supporting the learning of genetics. To provide a methodologically sound comparison, the two sessions were constructed to be equivalent and were designed based on principles provided by the cognitive theory of multimedia learning and the…

Lucas, Terry – E-Learning and Digital Media, 2019
Animation can be used for various purposes such as for procedural and motor skill learning (i.e., dance, sports, and motor rehabilitation). In the context of visual design, this study explores the possible influence of realism (levels of visual detail) in animation at the cognitive stage of motor skill acquisition. Students (N = 64) with low-prior…

Shin, Dong-Hee; An, Hyeri; Kim, Jang Hyun – Interactive Learning Environments, 2016
The use of a second screen can enhance information processing and the execution of search tasks within a given period. In this study, we examined the learner's attentional shift (AS) between two screens and controlled secondary tasks (STs) in the media multitasking setting and its effect on the learning process. In particular, we analyzed how…

Wouters, Pieter; Paas, Fred; van Merrienboer, Jeroen J. G. – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2010
Animated models explicating how a problem is solved and why a particular method is chosen are expected to be effective learning tools for novices, especially when abstract cognitive processes or concepts are involved. Cognitive load theory was used to investigate how learners could be stimulated to engage in genuine learning activities. It was…

Linek, Stephanie B.; Gerjets, Peter; Scheiter, Katharina – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2010
Current cognitive multimedia design theories provide several guidelines on how to integrate verbal and pictorial information. However, the recommendations for the design of auditory texts (narrations) are still fragmentary, especially with regard to the characteristics of the voices used. In the current paper, a fundamental question is addressed,…

Kim, Sung-il; Yoon, M.; Whang, S.-M.; Tversky, B.; Morrison, J. B. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2007
Although animations are believed to be effective in learning and teaching, several studies have failed to confirm this. Nevertheless, animations might be more attractive and motivating. Fourth and sixth grade students learned the operation of a bicycle pump from graphics that were: (i) presented simultaneously; (ii) presented successively; (iii)…
