How does your story reflect Mayer's Principles? Multiple Representation Principle: It is better to present an explanation in words and pictures than solely in words. Contiguity Principle: When giving a multimedia explanation, present corresponding words and pictures contiguously rather than separately Coherence Principle: When giving a multimedia explanation, use few rather than many extraneous words and pictures Modality Principle and Redundancy Principle: Students learn better from animation and narration than from animation and on screen text Individual Differences Design effects are stronger for low knowledge learners than high knowledge learners and high spatial learners than low spatial learners
