Multimedia Learning

Third Edition
Advances in computer graphic technologies have inspired new
efforts to understand the potential of multimedia instruction as a
means of promoting human learning. In Multimedia Learning, Third
Edition, Richard E. Mayer takes an evidence-based approach to
improving education using well-designed multimedia instruction.
He reviews 15 principles of multimedia instructional design that are
based on more than 200 experimental research studies and grounded
in a cognitive theory of how people learn from words and graphics.
The result is the latest instalment of what Mayer calls the Cognitive
Theory of Multimedia Learning, a theory introduced in previous
editions of Multimedia Learning and in The Cambridge Handbook of
Multimedia Learning, Second Edition. This edition provides an up-
to-date and systematic summary of research studies on multimedia
learning, supplemented with complementary evidence from around
the globe. It is well-suited to graduate and undergraduate courses
in psychology, education, computer science, communication,
instructional design, and game design.

Richard E. Mayer is Distinguished Professor of Psychological and


Brain Sciences at the University of California, Santa Barbara, USA.
He served as President of the Division of Educational Psychology
of the American Psychological Association and Vice President of
the American Educational Research Association for the Division of
Learning and Instruction.
