Using multimedia for e-learning

TL;DR: 12 research-based principles for how to design computer-based multimedia instructional materials to promote academic learning are reviewed, starting with the multimedia principle, which holds that people learn better from computer- based instruction containing words and graphics rather than words alone.

A systematic review of eye tracking research on multimedia learning

TL;DR: A systematic review of eye tracking research in the domain of multimedia learning explores how cognitive processes in multimedia learning are studied with relevant variables through eye tracking technology to offer suggestions for future research and practices.

The signaling (or cueing) principle in multimedia learning

TL;DR: A cautionary description of 10 of the questionable principles that have developed and seem to be widely shared about multimedia learning is given in this article, with a focus on the more recent additions and the focus of this discussion are expectations that multimedia instruction benefits learning by providing autonomy and control over the sequencing of instruction.

Eye movements in reading and information processing: 20 years of research.

TL;DR: The basic theme of the review is that eye movement data reflect moment-to-moment cognitive processes in the various tasks examined.

Cognitive load during problem solving: Effects on learning

TL;DR: It is suggested that a major reason for the ineffectiveness of problem solving as a learning device, is that the cognitive processes required by the two activities overlap insufficiently, and that conventional problem solving in the form of means-ends analysis requires a relatively large amount of cognitive processing capacity which is consequently unavailable for schema acquisition.

Cognitive Architecture and Instructional Design

TL;DR: Cognitive load theory has been designed to provide guidelines intended to assist in the presentation of information in a manner that encourages learner activities that optimize intellectual performance as discussed by the authors, which assumes a limited capacity working memory that includes partially independent subcomponents to deal with auditory/verbal material and visual/2- or 3-dimensional information as well as an effectively unlimited long-term memory, holding schemas that vary in their degree of automation.

Multimedia Learning

TL;DR: Whether people learn more deeply when ideas are expressed in words and pictures rather than in words alone is examined, and Richard E. Mayer examines the cognitive theory of multimedia learning.

A theory of reading: From eye fixations to comprehension.

TL;DR: A model of reading comprehension that accounts for the allocation of eye fixations of college students reading scientific passages is presented, embedded in a theoretical framework capable of accommodating the flexibility of reading.
