A MATTER OF SIZE SCREENIT TV
Whether consciously or not, I avoided the TV all weekend, taking my news from a couple of daily web and newspaper hits. He loves thinking about the dimensions of media in e-learning.People say “everything’s different after you become a parent,” and it certainly felt that way two Fridays ago, when Adam Lanza opened fire at Sandy Hook Elementary. Steve Haskin is a video creator, writer, and teacher on the role of visual media in learning. We need real evidence of how we inculcate the information our learners need with all the various screen sizes in the market today. There simply hasn’t been enough research done yet to determine the correlation among screen size, comprehension, and retention of information that’s delivered on a large screen versus a small screen. If your e-learning video has dense visual and audio information and interactivity, perhaps it will overwhelm learners with just too small an area to view what it is they need to learn. I believe it does matter when viewing video, but to a lesser extent than reading. This much we can derive from the research. Eat or be eaten.ĭoes (screen) size matter? The smaller the screen, the less information a viewer can discern quickly. However, it did start with hearing and vision. Humans were able to kill animals many times our size by using our vision combined with hearing, among some other things such as making tools. Human vision has been the reason our species has survived since we were on the savannah. There’s a doctoral dissertation about screen size and comprehension, but it only looks at the physical size of words, how easy it is to scroll and select, etc., but not video comprehension.
None of the articles and papers researched comprehension and screen size specifically only the concept that reading on a screen makes a difference is analyzed.
A MATTER OF SIZE SCREENIT SERIES
com/article/reading-paper-screens/) is one of a long series of articles reviewed for this article. “Whether they realize it or not, many people approach computers and tablets with a state of mind less conducive to learning than the one they bring to paper.” This statement from The Scientific American article, “The Reading Brain in the Digital Age” (. com/watch?v=UWEjxkkB8Xs&feature=youtu.be), we begin to understand that there’s much more to video than meets the eye (pun intended) or ear. If you think of the people who told visual stories without words (Buster Keaton comes to m in d –. Of course, language is contained in this since we usually have to understand what we’re hearing (the auditory part). Video is inherent in the two regions in our brains that now are considered to be in the same place: our visual and auditory cortexes. As children learn to read, they have to knit together a few different regions in their brains-those that control language, vision, and motor skills. The written word doesn’t come naturally to humans. Writing hasn’t been around for all that long in the course human evolution… only about 6,000 years. Words on a screen don’t necessarily translate to video, but they both are visual, and the neuroscience of both start in the visual cortex. But if you extrapolate several studies that have been done about paper versus screens, there’s a real gap in learning from a screen, especially a small screen. However, this begs the question: Does video on a tiny screen get viewed and understood in the same way as video on a large screen? Do viewers comprehend and retain the same amount from a small screen as a big screen? It depends on whom you ask. Whatever it is, the same video shows everywhere.
A MATTER OF SIZE SCREENIT PLUS
It doesn’t matter whether it’s a desktop computer or an iPhone with the old small screen, an iPhone 6S Plus or a Samsung, LG, or Windows phone. Unless you’ve just returned from an involuntary stay on a desert island, training designers and developers know much of the training they deliver is via responsive Websites that stream video to whatever device the learner is looking at. We call and read e-mail on our phones, we communicate with words (texting), and we watch streaming video-all on our phones and tablets.
Much of the media in our lives is delivered on devices that fit into the palm of our hand. We have moved rapidly into a world of mobile everything in e-learning.
