Module+3

In the course wiki you will be working with your classmates to locate and share PowerPoint presentations that exhibit one or more of the 10 principles by Mayer. Once you have located the PowerPoint presentation on SlideShare you will embed it on this Module 3 Page in the course wiki. Each entry should 1) clearly display the author of the PowerPoint, 2) Explain which principle is being demonstrated and how, and 3) Please post your initials next to your entry. You can separate your entries by inserting a horizontal line. (The icon with the blue bar in the wiki toolbar.) To embed a slideshare presentation just copy the embed code and click in the TV icon in the wiki toolbar. You can click on "Other html" then paste the embed code and click on Save.

 * Author:** [|Alexei Kapterev]
 * Title**: "[|Presentation Secrets]"

This PowerPoint presentation uses four out of the ten principles by Mayer. The principles that are used are coherence principle, spatial contiguity principle, segmenting principle, personalization principle Coherence principle is used to keep only the information about his topic on the slides. There is no extraneous material that does not relate to his topic on the slides. When describing the pros and cons about how to show pictures and graphs on PowerPoint, the designer uses arrows next to the words to point at the drawings. This spatial contiguity principle helps the reader see the relationship between the words and what they are describing. The PowerPoint uses the segmenting principle by placing the different topics and his 4 principles on different slides. Then it uses a single slide to describe each one instead of putting all 4 on one slide with many words. Finally, the PowerPoint is personalized by placing a picture of the designer on the second slide of this presentation. This really personalizes it show the designer and it also has his thoughts below the picture to make it even more personable. Furthermore, his wording is very informal and relaxes the reader. This is also accomplished through the different font styles he uses as well. (DC)

 * Title**:Sorting Things Out: an Introduction to Card Sorting

The slideshow entitled "Sorting Things Out: an Introduction to Card Sorting" makes use of a few of Mayer's 10 principles. The presentation makes use of signaling on several slides by making use of font types, sizes and colors to emphasize important pieces of text. Sorting Things Out makes use of spacial contiguity by (typically) putting text immediately next to images to which it pertains. A few times text is associated with images, but in a less spatially specific way (see slide 27). The presentation makes use of pretraining and segmenting on slides 6 to 12 to explain several of the design elements that fit into the context of card sorting before the topic is covered and each piece is presented one item at a time. Slides 6 to 12 also make use of Multimedia by associating a metaphorical image to coincide with the principles of design that are being explained. The presentation also makes fairly frequent use of personalization by keeping the text and graphic design fairly informal. (MS)
 * Mayer Principles**:

media type="custom" key="10470254" The slideshow I choose for my example" Blue Beauty", by Arabella Briciu includes eight of Mayer's 10 principles for the design of multimedia**.** 1. The Coherence Principle: This presentation minimizes extraneous sounds, words, and pictures in each slide. 2. The Redundancy Principle: Each slide was short and sweet, It included animation and narration not animation, narration and text. 3. The Signaling Principle:I liked the way the words included cues to where the cities were and how the images were organized in a way to better reference locations. 4. The Spatial Contiguity Principle: Each slide had corresponding text that went along with each image. The words were presented right on each slide in a legible font, and color scheme. 5. Temporal Contiguity Principle: The author did a nice job of adding corresponding words to the pictures at the same time you viewed them. This helped with orientation when looking at the Earth. 6. The Segmenting Principle: The presentation was self paced in segments that were easy to follow, One could easily go back and forth whenever they needed to. 7. The Pre-Training Principle: The main concept of each slide was presented before the conclusion. 8. The Personalization Principle: The author designed this presentation in a rather informal way. I felt as if I were viewing someones personal photos, and having them described to me. 9. The Voice Principle: No words were spoken. 10.The Multimedia Principle: Words and pictures were combined in most of the slides.Slide 15 was the only slide without a picture with the text. (BM)

 * Title:** You Suck at Powerpoint!


 * Mayer Principles:** This slideshow, "You Suck at Powerpoint!," represents several of Mayer's principles particularly well. The author makes excellent use of the multimedia principle using words and pictures along with a variety of font size to emphasize his points. His images are used very effectively. The author also follows the contiguity principle by putting corresponding words with pictures. I think he makes the slideshow interesting by adding images and text and taking it away from slides - it gives a sense of movement. I also think the author makes excellent use of the personalization principle, the idea that people learn better from a conversational style than from a more formal style. The author employs are very conversational style from the title of the slideshow (you can't get much more conversational then to tell someone they suck!) to the end where he provides you with a pledge to sign that you will never suck at a presentation again. This is one of my favorite presentations on presentations, and I think it has always stuck with me because it is so well-designed and follows many of Mayer's principles. (SA)

 * Author**: Facebook Marketing


 * Title**: How to Use Mobile Phone to Update Facebook Pages


 * Mayer Principles**: This slideshow provides a step-by-step process for updating your Facebook page using your mobile phone.

Mayer's principle of spatial contiguity (corresponding words and pictures are placed near each other) is evident because the instructions and either a screen shot or graphic are placed near each other in case the user does not understand the written directions.

The signaling principle (highlighting important words) is present. An instruction is given, and the important words or locations referenced in the instructions are boxed in red for the user to easily find in order to complete the task themselves.

The multimedia principle says that learners learn better from words and pictures rather than words alone. In this presentation, as previously mentioned, directions are given, and detailed pictures or screen captures that correspond to the direction are placed next to the direction to clarify or give examples for the user.

Finally, the personalization principle is present because the language in the slideshow is very informal, user-friendly, and relatable. It's written in a way that's easy to understand for the average person instead of using technical language that would be more confusing for the user. (DG)

media type="custom" key="10502782" This slideshow provides definitions and examples of all of the different principles and elements of design. This would be useful in an art class, or interior design course.
 * Author:** Ar Suvarna Deshpande/Lele
 * Title:** Principles and Elements of Design


 * Mayer Principles:**


 * The Coherence Principle:** The presentation was simple and did not overdue sounds, words or pictures on each slide. Each picture had a purpose to be an example.
 * The Spatial Contiguity Principle:** Each slide had corresponding text to go along with each picture. The picture served as an example to what the text was describing.
 * The Segmenting Principle:** The presentation was self-paced and well organized. The viewer can go back and forth to revisit any of the information.
 * The Voice Principle:** There was no voice over recorded, everything is the presentation was text.
 * The Multimedia Principle:** Both words and pictured were together in every slide; again the pictures were examples of what the text was describing. Allowing the viewer to get a visual concept of what was being explained.

 * Title:** The STIGs Secret Weapon Could Save Your Life

This slideshow 'The STIGs Secret Weapon Could Save Your Life' provides seven of the Mayer’s 10 Principles.

Principles: Coherence – excludes unrelated words and pictures. Multimedia – presents words and pictures. Presentation – presents words in conversation style. Pretraining - presents key concepts and name. Redundancy – explain visuals with text. Segmenting – presents user-paced segments. Temporal contiguity – presents narrations and pictures at the same time. (B. Stenson-Fuller)

media type="custom" key="10519194"

Author: Sarah Jane Morris Title: Beards: A Series of Fun Facts

Principles:
 * The Multimedia Principle:** Both words and pictures are used on each slide. The pictures all related to what the text was describing.
 * The Personalization Principle:** Words are presented in a conversational style instead of a formal style. The author makes text much more casual.
 * The Segmenting Principle:** The audience can go at their own pace in order to take in and understand the presentation.
 * The Signaling Principle:** The presentation includes headers on each page. The majority of the pages display text in different size to correspond with the importance it has to the given subject.
 * The Voice Principle:** There was no voice recording. The whole presentation was text and pictures alone. (MAS)

Author- Daniel F. Perkins, Ph.D., Title- Bullying: In Our Children's School

This PowerPoint presentation uses 6 of Mayer's principals. They are as follows: 1) Coherence- Words and pictures center around the main theme... Bullying 2) Signaling- There are very clear headers on each page and they stand out from the text itself. 3) Spatial contiguity- Each slids has a pictures that goes with the text found on that particular slide. 4) Segmenting- This slideshow is created for the user to use at his/her own pace. 5) Multimedia- Pictures were presented with words on the majority of the slides. 6) Personalization- The author created slides to casually inform the reader, not to formally instruct.

The main point behind this presentation was to casually inform the reader on the effects of bullying in the school and what some of the outcomes can come from bullying. This presentation would be a valuable tool during professional developmend but would need to be used as a guide for the presenter, NOT AS A WORD FOR WORD PRESENTATION. (A.Workman)

 * Title: "We'Re Going on a Book Hunt"**

I found the following principles in the above power point presentation: 1. Multimedia- words to the song and pictures that go along with the words are presented. Compared to just having words with out pictures. 2. Personalization- Jamie changed the words to a popular song "we're going on a bear hunt". This song is catchy and the students will enjoy singing it. 3. Coherence- the show is simple and not distracting, the material is easy to follow through. I feel like "modality" (present words as spoken text rather than printed text) should be included so that the viewer can listen to how the song is sung.

I love that this is a great 'hook" to encourage students to read their "big book". (J.M) __-__

**Title: Twitter in Education**
This presentation uses the following Mayer principles: 1) Spatial contiguity- The author places the text near the corresponding graphics. It is important to have the graphic match the text. 2) Temporal contiguity- Their is a YouTube video embedded with narration by the author in reference to Twitter. 3) Modality - Present words as spoken text rather than printed text with the YouTube video that was embedded. 4) Multimedia - Most slides contain pictures that correspond with the wording. 5) Personalization - Words are easy to understand and follow without a formal introduction to the content.

 * Author: Sanjaya Mishra**
 * Title: Instructional Design for Multimedia**

This presentation covers several of Mayer's principles and visually demonstrates them in the process. On slides 10 and 11 the author uses the "signaling" technique by highlighting the key text that the learner needs to focus on. Another principle that he covers on slides 2 and 6 is avoiding extraneous processing by not placing redundant information on a slide. If a presenter places a speech bubble on a slide, there is no need to repeat the same information at the bottom of the slide in plain text. A third principle that is demonstrated on slides 2 and 6 is the contiguity. Related information presented in words and graphics should be placed together so that it is easier to view for the learner. The contiguity also helps the learner to make sense of the information by not making them scan all over the page to make connections.

media type="custom" key="10542718" ** Title: ** Netiquette
 * Author: ** syazwani101

This slide show highlights the meaning of netiquette and the importance of communicating appropriately over the internet through four key points. I selected this particular topic because it is a topic both students and adults can benefit from when corresponding online. Mayer’s principles that are evident are:
 * Coherence – the presentation is concise with a total of 10 informational slides that are not redundant.
 * Signaling – the presentation is organized into the four main ideas highlighted on the opening slide.
 * Segmenting – the four types of netiquette are presented in slide segments with brief explanations/examples of each.
 * Multimedia – the presentation contains text as well as pictures and graphic organizers to help learners activate prior knowledge and assimilate incoming information into existing schema.
 * Personalization – the presenter uses words such “you”, “yourself”, and “you’d” to help learners internalize the message. (BW)


 * Title:** Cyberbullying A New Twist on an Age-Old Problem
 * Author:** Mary Alice Osbourne

media type="custom" key="10542928"

This slide show explains cyberbullying and gives multiple examples from both the victim and the bully. It exhibits 5 of the 10 principles.
 * Coherence - this presentation is relatively short and does not have a lot of extra information. Eliminating extra information is important to help students focus on the important information.
 * Signaling - the presentation uses some red font to draw the reader's eye to the important information.
 * Segmenting - this presentation allows the learner to view the information at their own pace. They progress to the new slides when they are ready to move on, not when the slide show dictates when they move on.
 * Multimedia - Words and pictures are used in order to assist learners.
 * Personalization - there are many slides that use quotes from real people. These quotes help learners relate to the people, and therefore learn more. (Nicole Janower-Goldman)

media type="custom" key="10545230"
 * Title:** Feels Bad On The Back
 * Author:** Mohamad Faried Aquslemi

This Slideshow displays the following principles as discussed by Mayer:
 * 1) Coherence - The slideshow does not overload the presentation with a lot of information. It lets the images and photos speak for themselves which adds a nice simplistic characteristic to it.
 * 2) Redundancy - No on screen text is added to any of the narrated animations. The text is used only when necessary and sparingly.
 * 3) Spatial Contiguity - Text is added next to corresponding photographs and images. Text also represents the image being displayed.
 * 4) Temporal Contiguity - Both the image/photo and the text are displayed together at the same time in each slide. This gives the words as well as a visual example of what the word represents.
 * 5) Segmenting - The entire presentation is done so that the leaner can advance through the slides at their own convenience. The information presented on each slide is also appropriate. Information follows a particular order and is easy to comprehend.
 * 6) Pretraining - Provides the key words and shows illustrations as to where the key words would be located along with what it does and/or how it works.
 * 7) Multimedia - The slideshow does an excellent job utilizing both words and pictures to deliver the content effectively. The words are short sentences and at times the slides use pictures in between text to emphasize key words. (J.Y.H.)

 * Words and Pictures presented at the same time. It uses "two modes of representation rather than one."
 * The text is used as an outline that the maker explains rather than being read the text on the screen."narration rather than s visual on screen text."
 * Contiguity Principal- "words and pictures contiguously rather than separately.'
 * Power Point uses easy wording and is sequenced in a logical order. (TR)
