Education technology is rapidly evolving. So making the best use of multimedia resources in the classroom is pivotal for enhancing teaching and learning experiences in mathematics and science.
At White Rose Education, we know the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic led to a greater reliance on technology in education due to widespread school closures. This shift towards greater digital resource usage, including recent advancements in AI, fuelled our curiosity to explore recent research trends concerning the use of multimedia materials in classroom settings.
We believe increasing integration of multimedia resources can bolster classroom learning. Indeed, we are producing numerous multimedia resources. These are used by thousands of teachers worldwide and we want to ensure they are the best they can be. We felt the best way to do this was to explore the recent research landscape, with the aim of understanding the optimal applications of technology and multimedia materials in mainstream maths and science classrooms. We wanted to look at what currently works and what we can build on next.
