Integrating written text and graphics as a desirable difficulty in long-term multimedia learning

作者:

Highlights:

• We investigate the modality effect in multimedia learning with immediate and delayed tests.

• Crucially, the written modality is superior in the delayed test.

• This suggests that the modality principle should be reversed for long-term learning.

• Studies on multimedia learning should not be restricted to immediate tests.
