The lecture "Multimedia-Based Learning Environments" addresses the use of multimedia technologies to support the learning process and teaching situations.
This lecture targets an audience with a computer science background. The goal of this lecture is to provide solid background knowledge in cognitive, educational, and media psychology to understand the design and use of educational software systems. Still, the focus of the lecture and the tutorials is on building a bridge between theoretical insights on information processing and learning and the practical application of technologies.
The lecture introduces the theoretical foundations of human learning processes from a psychological perspective, in particular, the main theories of learning: Behaviorism, cognitivism, and constructivism. It discusses the interface and architecture of various types of learning environments based on these theories. Special emphasis is put on theories explaining the potential and limitations of multimedia technologies for learning. Since usage of multimedia is often said to have positive effects on learner motivation, we further discuss some theoretical background of motivation theories. With an engineering perspective, the development and design process of learning applications is discussed in detail. Additionally, we will introduce the basics of Multimedia didactics as well as principles of cooperative learning and the potential for technology support.
