Description

Does presentation style matter in online learning? Does students' preferred learning study matter? Come and hear about a recent study that measured the impact of an adapted eLearning environment on knowledge retention. The study involved the use of Richard Mayer\'s work and measuring impacts of the theories he puts forth in his book titled The Cambridge Handbook of Multimedia Learning. Implementing more choices for a wider range of students is becoming a necessity for greater engagement and can lead to creating an eLearning environment of intrinsically motivating students to learn on their own. Presented by Dr. Brian Zuel, Bayh College of Education, Technology Manager
