q1 i? The most important principles for multimedia learning are neither clearly attributable to the basic multicomponent model nor to the applied models (cognitive theory of multimedia learning, cognitive load theory). → Judith Schweppe & Ralf Rummer 2015

Evidence¶

Judith Schweppe & Ralf Rummer 2015¶

Judith Schweppe & Ralf Rummer. (2015). Attention and Long-Term Memory in System and Process Theories of Working Memory: A Reply to Soemer's (2015) Comment on Schweppe and Rummer (2014). Educational Psychology Review. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10648-015-9336-0

q1 · i? · theoretical · r2

Theoretical review argument from Schweppe and Rummer (2014), restated in this reply: analysis of how the multicomponent model is adapted in multimedia theories led the authors to conclude principles are "neither clearly attributable to the basic model" nor to the applied models. No empirical data are offered in this commentary.

"we concluded that the most important principles for multi- media learning are neither clearly attributable to the basic model (i.e., the multicomponent model) nor to the applied models (i.e., the cognitive theory of multimedia learning"
