Design Principles of
 Multimedia Learning

design principles are based
on empirical research.

  media e.g. use       W
       and             O
    rather than        R
   words alone         D
       GRAPHICS
Contiguity Principle
Place corresponding various media close
   to each other e.g. Place      and
                near each other.
Coherence Principle
Avoid using unnecessary
texts, graphics or sound.
  Media should not be
  used for decoration.

  personal to your audience.

  address students directly.

   intelligences (you and your students
   should become aware of individual
   preferences)
 • Vary your types of content
