TL;DR: The effects of systematically varied interactivity on learning from interactive video were studied and recall was significantly affected by the amount and type of interactivity provided.
Abstract: The effects of systematically varied interactivity on learning from interactive video were studied. A total of 98 high-school students served as subjects. Four increasingly interactive versions of instruction were used. After receiving the instruction, students took a 23-item recall test. Recall was significantly affected by the amount and type of interactivity provided. The fully interactive version yielded the greatest recall but took longer to complete than any of the other presentations. Time to complete the instruction was shortest, and the resulting rate of learning was greatest, for the simple linear video presentation.
