Video as a tool for teaching and learning in higher education is a multimedia application with considerable promise. Including video within the online support material for a module can help students to gain an understanding of the material and prepare for assessment. We have experimented with using short videos that summarise the lectures given, as an aid for students to use when revising. An interpretive method has been adopted to investigate the use students make of these videos, during the teaching term and when revising for assessment. In this paper a summary of ways that video can be used for supporting teaching and learning is given, the ways in which we used video are presented followed by discussion of some issues relating to producing summary length videos. Preliminary research indicates that students find these summary lectures very useful for reviewing lecture material as well as for their revision.

Abstract—The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of computer–based instructional designs, namely modality and redundancy principles on the attitude and learning of music theory among primary pupils of different Music Intelligence levels. The lesson of music theory was developed in three different modes, audio and image (AI), text with image (TI) and audio with image and text (AIT). The independent variables were the three modes of courseware. The moderator variable was music intelligence. The dependent variables were the post test score. ANOVA was used to determine the significant differences of the pretest scores among the three groups. Analyses of covariance (ANCOVA) and Post hoc were carried out to examine the main effects as well as the interaction effects of the independent variables on the dependent variables. High music intelligence pupils performed significantly better than low music intelligence pupils in all the three treatment modes. The AI mode was found to help pupils with low music intelligence significantly more than the TI and AIT modes.

“A picture is worth more than thousand words ” refers to the impression that a complex concept can be conveyed with just a single image. Multimedia-based education is a combination of interactive / non-interactive learning material with a stimulating, coherent graphics, video and animated components. When education is creative, problem based, interactive, and target based, learners always interested in learning. Such learning environment could be provided by means of Multimedia based Education. An ineffective learning environment could be witnessed if instructions are designed without considering the multimedia principles. A research is required to identify the elements and structure, which can help the learner to increase the skill level, reduce the learning time and improve the performance of a learner. This study has been conducted in 12 universities where instruction and assessments were conducted in multimedia environment. The student’s responses are recorded and factors are highlighted after using mathematical rules. An operational model has been suggested incorporating all the factors to enhance overall academic performance of a student.

This paper describes a multimodality approach that helps primary-school students improve their learning performance during music instruction. Multimedia instruction is an effective way to help learners create meaningful knowledge and to make referential connections between mental representations. This paper proposes a multimodal, dual-channel, multimedia learning (DML) system that provides efficient control over several multimedia objects such as Word files, PowerPoint files, web pages, images, films, and real-time videos. The multimodal DML system was applied in an experiment in which 32 fourth-grade students were assigned to the experimental group, where they received twelve 40-minute music lessons using multimodal presentation over a period of eight weeks. The control group consisted of 32 fourth-grade students who received the same twelve 40-minute lessons, but with musical notations. The results reveal that students in the experimental group showed a higher level of learning achievement and motivation than those in the conventional group. The conclusion was that multimodal presentations are helpful to scaffold learning.

The present study aims to investigate language learners’ cognitive processes in on-line ESP courses. Three modes of inquiry are used: think-aloud protocol analysis, screen capture analysis, and correlation analysis. The theoretical foundations for the evaluation of the cognitive aspect of Ferdowsi Univeristy of Mashhad E-learning System are drawn from cognitive load theory, cognitive apprenticeship theory and human-computer interactivity theory. 15 users were interviewed while their performance on the screen was recorded electronically. The results of qualitative and quantitative analyses show that design features have a meaningful effect on the users ’ performance in four phases of cognitive interaction with e-learning systems. The educational implications of the findings for software developers are discussed.

New visualization tools have been developed but geospatial data models and theories remain unchanged because they enable a user to determine a video’s distinguishing content without investing long viewing times or requiring high network- transfer speeds. Recent developments in computer hardware and algorithm design have made possible content to integrate media indexing with computer visualization to achieve effective content-based access to video information. This paper starts addressing the theoretical aspect of a multimedia visualization and a consistent framework to express different types of data sources.
