Assessments of Multimedia Technology in Education: Bibliography
Is there any evidence that multimedia technology is more effective for delivering instruction than traditional methods? Is there more than anecdotal evidence to show that the educational results justify the cost and effort of incorporating multimedia technology into the classroom? To help answer these questions, we have a growing body of research devoted to assessing the effectiveness of multimedia in all levels of education, including corporate and military training.
