Multimedia Learning Compendium

Modern teaching and learning would be unthinkable without multimedia. How can the quality of new multimedia offerings be ensured? What standards exist? Which didactic approaches are effective? What current theories and findings from teaching and learning psychology are helpful for design, and what technical questions need to be considered? Thirty-three chapters present all essential aspects, including planning, design (with didactic design patterns), forms of interactivity, CSCL, evaluation, software systems, and tools (such as authoring tools). A comprehensive compendium for educators, developers, and users.
