Abstract
"Learning is best achieved when students are engaged in the course (Clark & Mayer, 2016). Faculty can enhance student learning and engagement with the use of multimedia (Clark & Mayer, 2016; Mayer, 2017). Videos can also increase student participation (Almuslamani, Nassar, & Mahdi, 2020).
Courses should contain adequate practice activities to achieve the learning objectives in the course (Clark & Mayer, 2016). Practice activities should include effective feedback (Clark & Mayer, 2016; Mayer, 2017). Faculty can create videos that contain engaging practice activities along with feedback.
In this presentation, we will discuss Richard Mayer’s 12 multimedia principles of learning (Mayer, 2017). We will demonstrate how to create engaging videos that will enhance student engagement and learning using the Kaltura video tool in Brightspace. We will also include best practices and tips for creating effective multimedia presentations.
