It considers whether multimedia presentation as a collaborative tool is perceived by students as a positive way to improve learning outcomes. Special attention is devoted to the on-line resources used by students. These resources can increase the level of motivation to learn foreign languages. Also we describe six principles of multimedia design based on several research study findings in modern scientific literature. In this paper the term «multimedia» refers to an educational presentation made using primarily audio and images. Unlike hypertext and web-based instruction the reliance on text is minimized in a multimedia product. The results of the paper show that multimedia has for years been considered high in development potential as a tool for educators. However, the author notices two difficulties: there is still relatively little evidence to support the value of multimedia for enhancing learning and the cost of most multimedia production is still relatively high.Read More
