This research examines the effectiveness of multimedia design principles on learning outcomes among undergraduate medical students.
Pre-test/post-test control group design was used.
Year 3 medical students in two groups: modified-design (n=91) and traditional-design (n=39) lectures.
Lectures covered topics on shock using either traditional slides or those modified per Mayer's principles.
Both groups improved in retention significant (p<0.0001) and in total scores (p<0.0001).
Significant greater improvements in retention (F=10.2, p=0.0016) and total scores (F=7.13, p=0.0081) were observed in the modified-design group compared to traditional.
