12. Human-centeredmultimedia WhatisMultimedia? • Delivery-MediaView • Presentation-ModesView • Sensory-ModalityView

13. Human-centeredmultimedia Two Design Approaches: • Technology-Centered • Learner-Centered

14. Human-centeredmultimedia Learningoutcomes: RoteLearning - GoodretentionPoortransfer MeaningfulLearning - Goodretention & transfer

15. Human-centeredmultimedia Humanmind: Long-term memory Working memory WhyMultimedia? • Dual channels (multiple channels) • Limited capacity • Active processing

16. Human-centeredmultimedia Dual channels: • Visual informationProcessing • AuditoryinformationProcessing

17. Human-centeredmultimedia Limited capacity • working memory is only able to hold 7 new data; • almost all the contents of working memory are lost within about 20 seconds.

18. Human-centeredmultimedia Active processing • Selecting relevant words • images • Organizing into a verbal model • pictorial model • Integrating the verbal and pictorial representation with each other and with prior knowledge

19. Howpumpswork As the rod is pulled out, air passes through the piston and fills the area between the piston and the outlet valve. As the rod is pushed in, the inlet valve closes and the piston forces air through the outlet valve.

22. Arousal theory • Students learn better when they are emotionally aroused by the material

24. Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning Principles for better Multimedia Learning: • Coherence • Signaling • Redundancy • Segmenting • Multimedia • Personalization

25. Coherence • Lessis more • Students tend to be able to remember the seductive details better than they can remember the central ideas in the passage

26. Signaling Peoplelearnbetterwhencuesthathighlighttheorganizationoftheessential material are added • Outlines • Headings • Vocal emphasis • Pointerwords

27. Redundancy Multimediais more effectivewhenwords are presented as speachratherthenspeechandprintedtext learningpreferenceshypothesis

28. Segmenting students learn better when a multimedia message is presented in user-paced segments rather than as a continuous unit

29. Multimedia Peoplelearnbetterfromwordsandpicturesthanfromwordsalone • Decorative • Representational • Organizational • Explanative

30. Personalization Peoplelearnbetterfrommultimediapresentationswhenwords are inconversationalstyleratherthan formal style • Multimedialearning as social event • Voice (Human vs Computer) • Image (Avatar / Tutor )

31. ConnectingInformation How big is the internet? • 109.5 million websites operated • one trillion unique URLs • 65,000 new videos were being uploaded every day

32. Have you ever used YouTube to teach yourself something?

36. Connectinginformation • LearningManagementSystems (LMS) andauthoringtools(Commercial: Articulate; Camtasia; Lectora; Blackboard,...; Adobe Captivate) (Opensource: Moodle, Elgg, Udutu,...) More: http://www.c4lpt.co.uk/Directory/Tools/instructional.html

37. Connectinginformation • Children who train with the virtual materials are as capable in correctly designing experiments as children who train with the physical materials. Triona and Klahr

38. Conclusões • A utilização de meios audiovisuais, de multimédia e soluções interactivas na educação é vantajosa em diversos casos; • É cada vez mais simples criar vídeos animações e imagens; • Existem algumas regras e condições para potenciar a utilização de multimédia na educação.
