“…Multimedia such as web-based instruction provided authentic visualization of astronomical phenomena by making abstract concepts concrete to students, which was not provided by the text (Nthimbane & Kazeni, 2019). Additionally, a study by Abdillah et al (2020) found that the use of visuals in the form of photos and videos for astronomical education 'eight planets' was a particularly effective form of communication for millennials.…”

“…Further Visual, sensory, and kinesthetic integration can help people grasp concepts in space better (Shaikh et al, 2020). Since astronomical concepts should be accessible to both adults and children alike, educational media such as multimedia visuals should be effectively integrated (Abdillah et al, 2020). Hence multimedia technology includes not just cutting-edge IT innovations like high-tech digital equipment, but also common objects like short video clips, text, PowerPoint presentations, graphics, and more (Rigzin & Chalermnirundorn, 2021).…”

This study was motivated by the absence of studies examining the effectiveness and students' perceptions toward multimedia in learning concepts in astronomy related to the Bhutanese context. The study used an explanatory sequential mixed-method research approach with a pre-test and post-test experiment on a single group. The study examined the effectiveness of multimedia in learning astronomy concepts. Additionally, it also explored the perceptions of students toward the use of multimedia in learning astronomy concepts. The participants consist of 44-grade seventh students. The quantitative data was collected using an astronomy conceptual test. The qualitative data were collected from semi-structured interviews conducted with 12 students. Quantitative data was analyzed employing histograms and paired samples t-tests. To generate themes for the qualitative data, Braun and Clarke's thematic analysis was used in the study. The semi-structured interview data were analyzed to get the students' perceptions of multimedia. The quantitative result indicated that after the multimedia intervention, the performance on the astronomy conceptual test significantly improved. Moreover, students' perceptions were positive towards multimedia. However, students face certain challenges such as time constraints and being unable to discern appropriate information for astronomy concepts. It was recommended that multimedia could be used to learn concepts in astronomy.
