How university instructors apply the design principles for electronic courses: a comparative study based on Richard Mayer's model on multimedia learning

“…Research findings support the usefulness of this theory in instructional design in various fields like academic achievement (Almasseri and AlHojailan, 2019), vocabulary training (Kanellopoulou et al, 2019), biology (Satyaprakasha and Sudhanshu, 2014), early childhood education (Shilpa and Sunita, 2013), English education (Shyamlee and Phil, 2012;Zhen, 2016), foreign language education (Almekhlafi, 2006;Amine et al, 2012;Zhang and Zhao, 2013), mathematics (Malik and Agarwal, 2012;Milovanovic et al, 2013), social studies (de Sousa et al, 2017), students with learning disabilities (Greer et al, 2013), vocational military training (Bradbeer and Porter, 2017), technical training (Stebila, 2011) and even in digital initiatives of libraries especially open educational resources (OER) (Theimer, 2019). The scope of these studies concerning disciplines and content areas shows the emerging importance of this theory.…”
