Multimedia Learning

I am intrigued by the concept of constructive alignment, and how it creates a meaningful learning experience. I can see how this aligns with art as my teachable, and how the topics and concepts presented to students will be engaging as it connects them to their communities and to their unique identities. While I think some of the YouTube video went without saying or connected to concepts we have already gone over, I believe it is important to give students control over the pace of their learning experience, especially when delivering a lot of content at once. Even while watching the video at home, I paused and would watch certain sections again if I needed an extra explanation or moment to jot something down. The Redundancy Principle was important to note as well, and I want to ensure as a teacher I am not overloading a lesson with too many examples but am selective with what content is shown in class while providing extra material afterward if needed, which again gives students more control over their own learning as not everyone will always come to class ready to learn (which is okay).

I am eager to try out Canva, as I have heard nothing but positive things about it so far.
