What do we know?


MULTISENSORY INTEGRATION
How does the brain work?
Our senses evolved to work together—vision influencing hearing, for
example—which means that we learn best if we stimulate several
senses at once.
p.219, Brain Rules, John Medina


Rules for Multimedia Presentation
• Multimedia principle - Students learn better from words & pictures rather than words
alone.
• Temporal contiguity principle - Students learn better when corresponding words &
pictures are presented simultaneously.
• Spatial contiguity principle - Students learn better when corresponding words &
pictures are presented near to each other rather than far.
• Coherence principle - Students learn better when extraneous material is excluded
rather than included.
• Modality principle - Students learn better from animation & narration than from
animation & on-screen text.

Meaning, Quality, Value, Curation
“The power of the moving image in
communicating complex information to
students.”

SENSORY DESIGN:
• Association
• Interpretation
• Integration
• Elaboration
• Engagement
All to make the senses work together!
BEST PRACTICES:
➡The BIG IDEA followed by granular details
➡Information presented by a subject matter
expert
➡Context offered
➡Meaning with “real world” experiences
➡Timing, tempo, chunks of learning
➡Animation with narration
➡Repetition of the concept “exposure” in many
different ways

➡Design elearning for more . . .

What are current “best practices”?


‣

Bite-sized: short, to-the-point, searchable


‣

Audio: Teacher’s voice “speaks” to
the student - no attention wandering.


‣

Video:Visual images, motion graphics,
animations create engaged, memorable,
emotional, narrative.

‣

Transcripts:
Learn the words &
vocabulary; text
tracks provide timecoded metadata.
Enhanced searchability.


‣

Repetition & Failure: Watching
a video repetitively or as much as
needed to get it; no failure - as many
chances as the learner needs or
wants.


‣

No tests, no stress: Anonymous
learning makes it safe to “not know”
something, allows vulnerability to
transform into confidence.
