Learner Input:1.Multimedia Principle-Learners derive
comprehension more deeply from words and their subsequent images than from words alone.
2.Contiguity Principle- This refers to the physical alignment of text and graphics to allow learners easier comprehension of content
Some Types of helpful teaching graphics are:
