What to look for in E-Learning regarding the Multimedia Principle
- Graphics and text are used to present instructional content especially for novice learners
- Graphics are relevant to the instructional purpose rather than decorative
- Animations are used primarily to illustrate hands-on procedure or to serve an interpretive function
- Complex animations include visual cues to direct attention to relevant portions of the animation
- Organizational graphics are used to show relationships among ideas or lesson topics or where the parts are located within a whole structure
- Relational graphics are used to show quantitative relationships among variables
- Transformational graphics, such as a video showing how to operate equipment, are used to show changes over time
- Interpretive graphics, such as a series of static frames, are used to explain how a system works or to make invisible phenomena visible
- Graphics are used as a lesson interface for case studies
