The pedagogical value and global relevance of heritage education regarding the safeguarding of global tradition and practice for future generations is indisputable. This research aims to investigate the efficacy of integrating a puzzle-based game, with scaffolding strategies, to enhance students' understanding and appreciation of cultural heritage…

Students in advanced undergraduate chemistry laboratories are required to undertake a wide range of complex and multistep syntheses and analytical procedures, and prospective employers of chemistry graduates seek students with proven skills in these areas. Our approach has been to use video resources which are made available to students both ahead…

In this study, the effects of interactive video usage in programming education on academic achievement and self-efficacy perception of programming were investigated by taking into account learning styles. The research was patterned according to the causal-comparative model, and also, correlation analysis was performed for related research.…

In this article, we provide a conceptual model for the design of instructional scenarios integrating hypervideo as an instructional tool. The model provides a structural aid for making design decisions about using hypervideo in instruction. We start by introducing the theoretical rationale for hypervideo as a tool, exploiting three different…

More and more videos are now being used in e-learning context. For improving learning effect, to understand how students view the online video is important. In this research, we investigate how students deploy their attention when they learn through interactive slide video in the aim of better understanding observers' learning style. Felder and…

This article explores the advantages and limitations of using the interactive whiteboard to enhance teaching and learning. The author observed two teachers use it and discusses their feelings about it. Also included is a discussion of previous research on this technological tool.

When it comes to helping others learn, there is a simple piece of advice that is often recommended to educators: Show! Don't tell. While appealing to the visual learning style of an audience is always a good idea, there is a growing expectation for more than just static images. They want video, which can deliver more dynamic presentations with…

More than 76 million persons become ill from foodborne pathogens in the United States each year. To reduce these numbers, food safety education efforts need to be targeted at not only adults, but school children as well. The middle school grades are ideal for integrating food safety education into the curriculum while simultaneously contributing…

Educational technology is seldom used to facilitate more active student learning in the classroom. Instructors who have mastered PowerPoint, however, could just as easily learn to create simple pieces of interactive multimedia that encourage student participation in learning tasks and that appeal to multiple intelligences and learning styles.…

A study found that learners with reflective-observing learning styles (n=16) tend to learn better with linear video, and those with active experimenting learning styles (n=42) tend to achieve greater learning with computer-assisted interactive video instruction. (JOW)

The limited studies conducted thus far indicate that interactive videodisc technology can be of great help to foreign-language learning. The sophisticated technology and the potential for development of effective learning materials offer advantages over other approaches. (MSE)

Hypotheses about the potential educational benefits of interactive video systems (IVS) are described. IVS, if properly designed and applied, has the potential to increase learning, encourage student-initiated learning, and provide a context for what has been learned. A call for research is made. (JL)

Discussion of interactive compressed video (ICV) focuses on human reactions and interactions and the implications for teaching and learning styles. The use of ICV at the University of Kentucky to link community colleges for distance learning is highlighted. (SLW)

A study evaluated the design and implementation of 10 interactive videodisc instructional modules on neuropathology used in medical instruction at Michigan State University. It investigated levels of student acceptance of the modules, ways in which modules accommodated different learning styles, and modules' facilitation of higher order learning…

Reviews current experimental research that deals with various aspects of learner control in computer-based instruction (CBI). Topics discussed include cognitive styles; computer anxiety; levels of field independence; sequencing; feedback; interactive videodiscs; branching in software menus; varying the density of text; and suggestions for future…
