description | Abstract
The production and use of video in education has increased during
recent years. However, most videos are not properly designed to
enhance attention and learning. In this article, we report on the
design of an instructional video based on existing multimedia learning
principles as well as on film and video theory, and the result of
an eye tracker study of students watching it. The eye tracker technology
enables us to study objectively the effects of the design elements.
We show that the design principles used in the production help viewers
to focus on important aspects in the video. |
