Multimedia Learning – Identifying Research Directions
Year: 2010
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: An infinite amount of information is within reach for anyone with access to the Internet.This appears to create a demand for efficient and accessible sources for learning. MultimediaLearning could potentially take part in meeting this demand. However, there are indications thattechnology is not fully taken advantage of for learning purposes (Greitzer 2002; Kahiigi, Ekenberg,Hansson, Tusubira and Danielson 2008). Hence, the problem at hand, motivating this paper, is thatthe demand for efficient and effective sources for learning is not necessarily met at its fullestpotential. The conclusion is that research is needed in the areas of learner-learner interaction inmultimedia, personalization through feedback, identification of stakeholders, minimalistic design ofmultimedia learning, flexibility and control in multimedia learning and cognitivity aspects incombination.
