ABSTRACT: Applying the cognitive theory of multimedia learning: an analysis of medical animations

CONTEXT: Instructional animations play a prominent role in medical education, but the degree to which these teaching tools follow empirically established learning principles, such as those outlined in the cognitive theory of multimedia learning (CTML), is unknown. These principles provide guidelines for designing animations in a way that promotes optimal cognitive
