Yea! I finally figured out how to activate my link! Well, I went back into my last post article and looked for research sources that would further my knowledge of the efficacy of using multimedia lesson plans with students. Pages 959 - 966 were especially appropriate as some of the research of subjects went back to the 1950's & 1960's. There were studies mentioned which looked at various combinations of audio or visual or combined stimuli and memory. One strange thing is that not all pages were included in the online copy. They announce and tell you that it's missing, but I'm not sure why they exclude some pages. I hope this research will assist me in my blog goal of assertaining whether PBS educational multimedia resources are valid resources in the classroom.

Hi Pam;
ReplyDeleteWell, this was my first experience looking through a large e-book. I don't think I'll ever get used to reading books on the computer screen. I zoomed in to make the text larger but then not much of the page showed up. I did notice the yellow highlighting on some of the text. I found some more information on multimedia research on page 997.
I wondered where you found this e-book. It looks like you found it on Google Book search?
Thanks, Mary
Pam,
ReplyDeleteI unfortunately had a very hard time reading this. I feel like the information you discussed in your post would really help benefit your research. I hope you find more that we can look at.

Mary, I did do a Google search using some of the authors of research mentioned in my other findings. The Internet is an awesome, meandering journey! Pam
