1. Multimedia and Contiguity Principle By Patrick Coleman Ed Tech 513 - Summer 09’

2. Learning Objective : At the end of this presentation, the learner will be able to correctly explain & identify the elements of the multimedia and the contiguity principles with 100% accuracy.

3. The Multimedia Principle asserts that “people will learn more deeply from words and graphics than from words alone.” (Clark and Mayer, 2008) Turtle > Or Turtle

5. The Contiguity Principle states that “in multimedia presentations, printed words should be placed near correlating graphic(s) in order to create a connection to the learner.” (Clark and Mayer, 2008) A good example of the Contiguity Principle : Football Futbol

6. Contiguity Principle con’t: A “not so good” Example: notice how the position of the the respective words do not give the learner any clue or hint as to which is which? Football Futbol

7. Review Words + Graphics = Multimedia Words + Graphics + Proximity = Contiguity
