Background: The most challenging task in eye-tracking-based multimedia research is to establish a relationship between eye-tracking metrics (or cognitive processes) and learners' performance scores. Additionally, there are current debates about the effectiveness of animations (or simulations) in promoting learning in multimedia settings.…

ICT-based learning media innovation is very relevant to support the learning process. Therefore, this study aims to develop interactive multimedia products that are suitable for use in learning activities. The method in this research is research and development (R&D) which adopts the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation,…

With advances in digitization, learning processes can be supported in many ways. The expectation that pre-service teachers learn to design, choose, and use appropriate digital multimedia in their prospective teaching also increases. A university course should thus help student teachers develop their intention and behavior for the future use of…

This study investigated the effects of multimedia learning and visual design in a 6th grade science textbook on students' studying processes. This was accomplished by using eye tracking technology and by applying multimedia learning design and visual design principles to science textbooks. Eye tracking based testing was employed to evaluate the…

Developing oral presentation skills requires both practice and expert feedback. Several systems have been developed during the last 20 years to provide ample practice opportunities and automated feedback for novice presenters. However, a comprehensive literature review discovered that none of those systems have been adequately evaluated in real…

A "virtual farm" website with science-based information about dairy sustainability topics was created for a variety of audiences. A key structure of the website is layering of information. At the most frequently used entry level, a site visitor explores by looking and learning. As interest evolves, the visitor finds links to technical…

In the construction of learning objects, as digital instructional material that is delivered to students, the level of learning to which they are directed must be considered first of all, according to the Bloom taxonomy or any other that is used, applicable to the e-learning, taking advantage of the digital resources that are currently available,…

Educational software can increase cognitive load and reduce learning in the K-12 classroom. The purpose of this quantitative quasi-experimental study was to compare the pretest/posttest changes in critical thinking skills and cognitive load in fourth-grade students after using multimedia software based on whether the design of the software product…

Learning media is one component that determines the success of learning. Learning media that should be used in the present day is a learning medium that facilitates students to be students and graduates are multi-competent, multi-literate, critical thinking, creative, innovative, able to cooperate and collaborate.

Museums seek to be places for democratization, inclusion and polyphony. In this paper we present the multimodal conversations of the participating adolescents in the course of a museum pedagogical program in the Museum of Contemporary Art of Crete. The program's topic is Europe and the concept of European identity. Firstly, we prepare the ground…

University education requires students to be trained both at university and at external internship centres. Because of COVID-19, the availability of multimedia resources and examples of practical contexts has become vital. Multimedia annotation can help students reflect on the professional world, collaborating and interacting with colleagues…

At the beginning of 2020, the COVID-19 epidemic continued to spread and became a global pandemic. Affected by the epidemic, online teaching has become the new normal.
