Understanding the Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning
Journal Title: International Journal of engineering Research and Applications - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 8
Abstract
A cognitive theory of multimedia learning details the human information processing system that includes dual channels for visual/pictorial and auditory/verbal processing. Each channel has limited capacity for processing. Such active learning entails carrying out a coordinated set of cognitive processes during learning. Processing of pictures occurs mainly in the visual/pictorial channel and processing of spoken words occurs mainly in the auditory/verbal channel .But processing of printed words takes place initially in the visual/pictorial channel and then moves to the auditory/verbal channel. The present paper clearly discusses the five steps in multimedia learning which are selecting relevant words from the presented text or narration, selecting relevant images from the presented illustrations, organizing the selected words into a coherent verbal representation, organizing selected images into a coherent visual representation and integrating the visual and verbal representations and prior knowledge.
