Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 12Secondary-Task Effects on Learning With Multimedia: an Investigation Through Eye-Movement Analysis(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2017) Acarturk, Cengiz; Ozcelik, ErolThis study investigates secondary-task interference on eye movements through learning with multimedia. We focus on the relationship between the influence of the secondary task on the eye movements of learners, and the learning outcomes as measured by retention, matching, and transfer. Half of the participants performed a spatial tapping task while studying the instructional materials, whereas the other half studied the materials, without spatial tapping. The results revealed suboptimal learning outcomes under the secondary task, which was accompanied by fewer transitions of gaze between the text and the figure. We propose that the suboptimal learning outcomes might be due to the disrupted processing of pictures, and possibly due to the less efficient integration, of the information gathered from the text and figures.Article Citation - WoS: 17Citation - Scopus: 22Seven Principles of Instructional Content Design for a Remote Laboratory: a Case Study on Errl(Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers inc, 2011) Cagiltay, Nergiz Ercil; Aydin, Elif; Aydin, Cansu Cigdem; Kara, Ali; Alexandru, MarianThis paper discusses the results of a study of the requirements for developing a remote radio frequency (RF) laboratory for electrical engineering students. It investigates students' preferred usage of the technical content of a state-of-the-art RF laboratory. The results of this study are compared to previous findings, which dealt with other user groups (technicians in technical colleges and engineers in the RF domain). Based on the results of these analyses, seven essential principles for designing and developing such a laboratory were identified. As a case study, these principles were then implemented into a remote laboratory system. In this paper, the implementation examples are also provided and discussed. The primary aim of this study is to guide remote laboratory platform developers toward the most effective instructional design. This study also determined, from the remote laboratory system case study, what the requirements are of such a laboratory from the students' perspective.
