Many of the studies that have compared the instructional effectiveness of static with dynamic
images have not controlled all the moderating variables involved. This problem is present …

A meta-analysis of 26 primary studies, yielding 76 pair-wise comparisons of dynamic and
static visualizations, reveals a medium-sized overall advantage of instructional animations …

Animations are increasingly used in technology-based learning resources because of their
assumed superiority over static graphics. However, empirical research has failed to provide …

In a systematic review, 194 studies on learning from animation were analysed. The analysis
covers the learning domains, the representational characteristics of the animations, the …

The use of animations is becoming increasingly widespread in electronic learning materials.
Authoring animations is now relatively straightforward, even for university teachers without …

The results of three meta-analyses show that the effectiveness of learning from animations,
when compared to learning from static pictures, is rather limited. A recent re-analysis of one …

Animations are frequently used in today's multimedia learning environment. Animated
displays of information are assumed to be more attractive and inherently instructionally …

This paper reviews research on learning from dynamic visual representations and offers
principles for the design of animations and simulations that assure their educational …

Studies comparing the instructional effectiveness of dynamic versus static visualizations
have produced mixed results. In this work, we investigated whether gender imbalance in the …

This study investigated the effectiveness of three different levels of enhancement strategies
utilized to facilitate students' learning from static and animated visualization when taking the …
