ELEARNING Test examples – can be point form

Example.

  • Describe the screen layout:

  • Visual hieirarchy: (evaluate the use of contrast to draw attention to the key elements)

  • Placement of graphics: (evaluate in terms of multi-media principles, and Alignment and Proximity principles)

  • Style of graphics: (Describe in terms of appropriateness, and multi-media coherence principles)

  • Use of colours: (Do the selected colours enhance or distract from the learning content?)

  • Do you consider the visual design effective from a learning perspective?

Why/why not?

Some of the sites we looked at:

Sydney Morning Herald

  • Common mistake, graphic not related to the context
  • Size of graphic matters
  • Colour Sky blue, easy on the eyes (Australian Company prefer to use sky blue in corporations)
  • A lot of movements and animation, can be confusing

BBC – UK news website

  • Use of bright colours

CNN

  • Use more graphics on the left hand side

Mc Donalds

  • Really simple to use
  • Less words, interactive, not 3D
  • Cognitive thinking, simple information, information per page
  • Not to many information on the screen
  • Use of red back ground – bold statement, hard on the eyes
