Synopsis

People can learn more deeply from words and pictures than from words alone. This seemingly simple proposition--which can be called the multimedia learning hypothesis--is the main focus of The Cambridge Handbook of Multimedia Learning. Each of the 35 chapters in this Handbook examines an aspect of the multimedia learning hypothesis. In particular, multimedia researchers are interested in how people learn from words and pictures, and in how to design multimedia learning environments that promote learning.
