Principles+of+Text+&+Graphics

 The principle of texts and graphics refers to “multimedia” learning. Research suggests that learners

understand material better using the combined multimedia presentation tool. They have the opportunity to

actively learn by arranging the information, comparing and combining it with current knowledge to form a

coherent cognitive presentation. Text refers to words printed or delivered by sound. Graphics refers to

static illustrations such as drawings, charts, graphs, maps, or photos, and dynamic graphics such as

animation or video.
