| Abstract: | The purpose of this paper is to present a participatory multimedia learning model that can be used in designing multimedia
learning environments that support an active learning process and creative participation. Participatory multimedia learning
can be defined as learning with systems that enable learners to produce part of the learning materials themselves. The aim
of the model is to represent the human information processing system and to support the transformation of free cognitive resources
into a germane cognitive load needed for knowledge construction. The paper also elaborates on the results of an empirical
study examining the effectiveness of student-generated illustrations. Finnish elementary school students (N = 187) learned about the human immune system by interacting with multimedia learning materials. Students performed better
on a retention test when they generated their own illustrations by drawing and when explanations were presented as animations,
compared to students who received only textual material or generated illustrations from images offered. |
