This blog post is focused on describing why a lesson plan can help the teaching process, and also the application of multimedia principles to videos with embedded multiple-choice questions. I thought that multimedia principles were used in an effective way throughout it. For example:
- The interactive video follows the embodiment principle since the speakers image is not presented.
- I also really like the personal preferences discussed in the video, such as how to save the unsplash image.
- Also, I believe that the video follows the prior knowledge principle, since it provides a brief introduction to unsplash that would not hinder expert learners.
I wonder if focusing more on the segmenting principle, which states that people learn better when a multimedia message is presented in learner-paced segments, would help. If the embedded image was in-between the two paragraphs, I would find it less intimidating to read.
Really good post! I like the background colour 🙂
