Multimedia Principle
The Multimedia principle states that people learn better from words and pictures, than they would with words alone (Kacz, 2017). Chiu & Churchill (2016) add that all texts and visuals are meant to help the learner so there is unnecessary cognitive process.
- Mandated Reporter Compliance Training for Teachers- These trainings used many of Mayer's Principles, but one specific one was the Personalization Principle. The narrator addressed the learner as if they were a colleague giving information. They used acadmeic vocabulary, but it was in a conversational tone.
- Language Essential for Teachers of Reading (LETRS) Training- You will find the Multimedia Principles in all of these trainings. There are a lot of complex ideas involved in this learning which the trainers support using graphics and diagrams well.
- Orton Gillingham IMSE Training- One principle that stands out for me is the Coherence Principle. The trainer tried to use too many graphics that were unneccessary and became extraneous. The visuals and texts made learning and following along difficult. "Less is more" and it applied to this training.
3 Examples of Trainings and 1 Principle that applies
Personalization Principle
The Personalization Principle states that using a conversational style, human voice, and polite wording when presenting or narrating is better than using academic or robotic tone (Peck, 2021).
This principle states that people learn better when extraneous (unneccessary or unrelated) pictures, words and sounds are omitted from the slide (Kacz, 2017). Adding extraneous material can hurt or impair learning (Peck, 2021) The goal is to keep everything that supports the learning goal in and anything that may distract the attention away from the learning goals out (Peck, 2021).
Coherence Principle
Redundancy Principle
The Redundancy Principle states that information should be explained with narration or text, but not both (Peck, 2021). If you are presenting a slide, you should not be narrating what is there in text. It is repetetive and unneccessary (Peck, 2021).
The Modality Principle states that it is better to describe graphics with narration rather than on-screen text (Peck, 2021). Moreover, still images are more effective with narration than the learner trying read text about an animation (Kacz, 2017). The purpose of the modality principle is not to overload the visual channel (Peck, 2021). Therefore, one should only use words that are unfamiliar for the learner to reference and understand if the trainer is going to include text along with visuals and narration (Peck, 2021).

- Mandated Reporter Compliance Training-
- effective element- It employed the Personalization principle well. The narrator used a conversational manner while narrating the information. The language and tone was personable.
- ineffective element- The training featured the Redundancy Principle. There would often be text on the slide that would be read by the narrator exactly as it was written.
- LETRS Training-
- effective element- Multimedia Principle- The graphics and text that were applied were relevant and made the learning more accessible. The brain diagram was especially helpful.
- ineffective element- Sometimes, there were graphics that were narrated and had on-screen text, which goes against the Modality Principle.
- Orton Gillingham IMSE Training-
- effective element- The trainer did a great job using the Contiguity Principle because as they displayed a graphic, the trainer would talk about it and all flowed smoothly.
- ineffective element- There was just so many visuals that were overwhelming. The Coherence Principle was not considered. It left a lot of us feeling overwhelmed and lost.
