Applying multimedia design principles enhances learning in medical ...
Conclusions Multimedia design principles are easy to implement and result in improved short-term retention among medical students, but empirical research is still needed to determine how these principles affect transfer of learning .

Context: The Association of American Medical Colleges' Institute for Improving Medical Education's report entitled 'Effective Use of Educational Technology' called on researchers to study the effectiveness of multimedia design principles . These principles were empirically shown to result in superior learning when used with college students in laboratory studies, but have not been ...

Applying multimedia design principles enhances learning in medical ...
Multimedia design principles significantly enhance retention (p < 0.0001) among medical students compared to traditional methods. Study involved 130 Year 3 medical students across two design groups in a pre-test/post-test framework. Retention improvements were statistically significant (F = 10.2, p = 0.0016) for the modified design group. Transfer of learning showed no significant difference ...
This paper summarizes 10 researchâbased principles for how to design effective multimedia instruction in medical education involving anatomy with a focus on digital media in the classroom. Expand

Multimedia design for learner interest and achievement
Abstract Background Medical education increasingly relies on digital learning materials. Despite recognition by the Association of American Medical Colleges Institute for Improving Medical Education, medical education design often fails to consider quality multimedia design principles . Further, the AAMC-IIME issued a call to study the role of design principles in medical education. Thus, the ...
