Abstract: | This article examines the assumptions and methods of conventional instructional media research to gauge its sufficiency as
a basis for issuing the controversial finding that media do not influence learning and as an inquiry model for documenting
media's educational effects generally. Examples of complex media effects are given and emerging media application paradigms
are identified to support the argument that both a new conceptualization of the media and learning question and new approaches
to its study are needed. An alternative values framework for guiding research on the effects of modern interactive technologies
in complex learning environments is offered. |
