Fuxing Wang; Xiaoxue Leng; Ziyi Kuang; Tingting Zhao – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2025
Background: Both eye movement modelling examples (EMMEs) and cues guide attention and improve learning in multimedia learning environments. EMME can act as a special form of cue. However, no studies have directly examined whether EMME would be superior to visual cues. Objective: The study was to investigate whether there were advantages of EMME…

Çakiroglu, Ünal; Aydin, Merve; Özkan, Adem; Turan, Seyma; Cihan, Asli – Education and Information Technologies, 2021
This paper reports on a study aiming at examining the effects of virtual reality and animations on students' perceived learning. The study was conducted as an exploratory case study in virtual reality-based and animation-based environments. Participants were 12, 4th grade elementary school students enrolled at a public Science and Art Center. The…

Arslan-Ari, I. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2018
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of cueing and prior knowledge on learning and mental effort of students studying an animation with narration. This study employed a 2 (no cueing vs. visual cueing) × 2 (low vs. high prior knowledge) between-subjects factorial design. The results revealed a significant interaction effect…

Buchner, Josef; Zumbach, Jörg – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2018
In this study the impact of a mobile augmented reality learning environment on motivation, learning effects and cognitive load was tested. Students participated in a two-hour history lesson while using their smartphones to turn static pictures into animations with an Augmented Reality (AR) application. Interest, perceived competence and perceived…

Kühl, Tim; Stebner, Ferdinand; Navratil, Sabrina C.; Fehringer, Benedict C. O. F.; Münzer, Stefan – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2018
This research examined whether the informational advantage of an animation over a static picture (and over no visualizations as a control condition) can be compensated by presenting the information in the text that constitutes this informational advantage. In addition, it was investigated whether learners' spatial abilities acted as a compensator…

Weng, Ting-Sheng; Yang, Der-Ching – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science & Technology Education, 2017
Most students thinking mathematics is a difficult subject. This study aims to enhance students' motivation and efficiency in learning mathematics. This study developed 3D animation on the binomial theorem with historical stories of mathematics as the plot. It also examined the effect of animation on students' learning willingness and…
