This post is talking about Sandra Wang: “SKETCHNOTE”

Sandra Wang did a great job describing the sketchnote. Sandra Wang discussed in detail how multimedia principles are applied in Bad News. She lists which principles bad news follow and which principles are not followed. I agree that Bad News does not follow the learner control principle because I encountered the same problem using Bad news.
The good point in post uses the signalling principle. Highlight all Principles and key words Sandra Wang mentioned.
The sketchnote, Sandra Wang created. It includes relative pictures and Keywords. This sketchnote satisfies the requirements.
In the post, Sandra Wang provides reasons why sketchnote can help in studying.
The improvements: Next time, Sandra can provide more examples about using sketchnote in real life, or more relative explanations about Cognitive Load Theory, Multimedia principle and Coherence principle.
Overall, Sandra Wang understands the Multimedia Learning Principles and make a good SKETCHNOTE and blog post.

Using the signalling principle and the segmenting principle in storytelling helps audiences make choices clearer and easier to follow the story’s changes. These principles help readers understand the story more deeply.
In the post, Amy provides “mirror neuron” as an example, which is connected with memory readers. This example has many similarities with the Twine story and is a good example.

This post is talking about Yifan Yang: “Personal thoughts about the Dual Coding Theory.”

Yifan did a good job of describing Dual Coding Theory, especially the source of the definition.
The example is surprised me, and it is a clear example. This example of dual coding theory shows a great impact on childhood. This example may be related to everyone. Flashcard is very persuasive. Many people have similar childhoods when they first learned vocabulary.
Pointed out the advantages of using the theory. When explaining in powerpoint, it enables people to grasp the main points.
Pictures are related to the post. It is related to the Multimedia principle.
The example of flashcards is related to the Self-explanation principle. Yifan uses her childhood experience to tell us how this theory can work. This whole explanation can be a self- explanation.
Overall, Yifan understands the Dual Coding Theory and provides a great example.
