Applying Multimedia Principles in the Design and Development of Learning Support Videos in Game-based Learning

• In Event: Frameworks to improve practice

Short Description

In this session, we present how we applied 8 multimedia principles in the design and development of 18 learning support videos for Physics Playground, a digital game designed to help students learn conceptual physics. We discuss our theory-based design decisions and suggest that well-designed learning supports can improve learning. Results from our quasi-experimental study showed a positive effect of learning support videos on learning gains and game performance, and no obstruction on game enjoyment.
