I wonder if, in addition to your amazing post, If you could explain a little about the meaning of  signalling principle ,that would be helpful for reader to understand what signalling principle is.

Blog feedback of Manny

After I read “Core Multimedia Skills in Fl Studios A3″ by Manny, the author used re-training principle and voice principle.

The author used professional software to attract my attention. He also used H5P video to make connection with audience.

I wonder if he can make the snares, clap and kick sound more clear. I only heard the narration sound.

Blog feedback of Leland

After I read “Learning more about how our brains work!” by Leland, I am surprised video games can make our brain for learning. Sometimes, I admire people who play games well. They can gives tips on tactics and negotiation strategies I have played league of legends for several years. However, my skills is still there, did not improve a lot.

Back to the Ted talk the author shared, Dr. Bavelier used the gesture to attract audience’s attention. When I took ESL course, the instructor ask us to use some gesture, walk around and eye contact to audiences. If we want to gesture, go ahead and gesture. We need to avoid minor hand movements that will be masked by the lectern.

Leland understands multimedia learning principles Dr. Bavelier has used. The author inserted YouTube video which will make audience to watch it. The author used Voice Principle and Modality Principle in the blog.

I wonder if the author could add some own experience that would be great.

Blog 9 – Active vs Passive Learning using Multimedia Tools

  • This Bad News is created like the Twine we have learned before. This is like H5P media. The Bad news used Signaling Principle ,Redundancy Principle and Multimedia Principle. It used story mode to make audience want to know what happen will be next. I would put some sound into this meedia for improving.

Sketchnoting has used redundancy principle, multimedia principle,and image principle. I have heard when some students make sketchnoting, they would review easily because image would help them to remember the information from the lecture or story.

Sketchnoting would definitely help in our school work or in life. However, you need to have grat drawing skills. If we draw like ghost, we cannot define image that you draw, it would be unuseful.

In EDCI 337, we use active learning, because after we watch the video or read lecture, we need to reflect on the lecture and weite down our own thought, and share to everyone.

Blog 8 – Persuasive Presentations or Death by PowerPoint

I chose “How to speak so that people want to listen” by Julian Treasure because this topic is related to our purpose. This gentleman cuts right through the chase, I usually dislike long introductions to the real subject. This video is teaching us that how to catch audience’s attention.

In his presentation, he has used Dual Coding theory, multimedia principle, and Signaling principle. He used clearly signaling for each word with pictures to introduce the seven deadly sins of speaking.

•Gossip

•Judging

•Negativity

•Complaining

•Excuses

•Exaggeration

•Dogmatism

Also, when he introduced those word, he used bold text to make word to make audience impressive.

For Cognitive Load Theory, we need to use for our life. Meanwhile research suggests that practice really does make perfect in that repeated repetition changes the structure of the brain. For example, when we learn new vocabulary, we need to use it in our life. Otherwise, we will forget it. •Dual Coding theory: For this theory, the memory would help more. A scene will make people to remember. Julian used his experience to tell story that makes people to remember. From my own experience, I have learned a word “significant” with unforgettable memory. This happened when my friend were discussing how to pronounce this word with me. I always remember this word because I would think about the scene I

Blog 7 – The Importance of Storytelling

https://twinery.org/2/#!/stories/75a6a7c5-feea-4b82-a6e6-497e2987bedf/play

For my Twine story, I used Redundancy Principle andPersonalization Principle. As the Redundancy Principle, I have used my own experience to show the story. In 2014, I struggled about study abroad. Since If I study abroad, I need to give up my friends in my home country because they all have their new school and new friends. However, I chose to have better world view, so I chose to coming Canada. At the beginning, I truly to feel lonely, but after that I started to have new friends. As Personalization Principle, I have used kind of multiple choice questions, when audience choose the option, they can see the different story.

Using a Twine story for educational, I would suggest the math course. When students choose the correct answer, they can continue to play for the next level. When students get the answer wrong, they need to restart again.
