Multimedia Learning 3rd Edition

Advances in computer graphic technologies have inspired new efforts to understand the potential of multimedia instruction as a means of promoting human learning. In Multimedia Learning, Third Edition, Richard E. Mayer takes an evidence-based approach to improving education using well-designed multimedia instruction. He reviews 15 principles of multimedia instructional design that are based on more than 200 experimental research studies and grounded in a cognitive theory of how people learn from words and graphics. The result is the latest instalment of what Mayer calls the Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning, a theory introduced in previous editions of Multimedia Learning and in The Cambridge Handbook of Multimedia Learning, Second Edition. This edition provides an up-to-date and systematic summary of research studies on multimedia learning, supplemented with complementary evidence from around the globe. It is well-suited to graduate and undergraduate courses in psychology, education, computer science, communication, instructional design, and game design.

電腦圖形技術的進步激發了對多媒體教學潛力的新探索，以促進人類學習。在《多媒體學習》第三版中，Richard E. Mayer採用基於證據的方法，通過設計良好的多媒體教學來改善教育。他回顧了15個多媒體教學設計原則，這些原則基於200多個實驗研究，並以人們如何從文字和圖形中學習的認知理論為基礎。結果是Mayer所稱的《多媒體學習的認知理論》的最新一部分，這一理論在以前的《多媒體學習》版本和《劍橋多媒體學習手冊》第二版中已經介紹過。本版提供了一個最新且系統的多媒體學習研究摘要，並補充了來自全球各地的相關證據。它非常適合心理學、教育、計算機科學、傳播、教學設計和遊戲設計的研究生和本科課程使用。
