Learning Data Structures Using Multimedia-Interactive Systems
Multimedia technology is increasingly being used as a complementary way of delivering instruction. To find out whether the use of a multimedia-interactive system is able to help the students to better learn complex issues such as Data Structures, this article describes an exploratory study comparing the effect of using three different teaching approaches, such as traditional teacher-led instruction, Web pages and a multimedia-interactive system. Descriptive statistics and ANOVA test results show that there are significant differences in students’ performance using multimedia. It is concluded that multimedia can effectively be used to help students learn data structures specifically binary trees

Improve Teaching and Learning: Comparison between Web Pages en Multimedia-Interactive Systems
The education field is in a process of change driven by new developments in multimedia technology, which is being used as a complementary-alternative for teaching purposes. This paper describes an exploratory study comparing the effect of using two different teaching approaches: Web pages and multimedia-interactive systems. The objective is to find out whether the use of a multimedia-interactive system delivers better outcomes in teaching complex subjects (data structures) than Web pages approach. Descriptive statistics results show that there are significant differences in students’ performance that used multimedia. We found out that, specifically in this study the multimedia tool improves the learning of binary trees. It is concluded that multimedia can effectively be used to help students learn binary trees
Enhanced Learning Using Mutimedia-Interactive Systems: An Experimental Study
The education field is in a process of change driven by new developments in multimedia technology, which is being used as a complementary alternative for teaching purposes. This paper describes a thesis project developed through an exploratory study comparing the effects of using three different teaching approaches: traditional teacher-led instruction, web page instruction and a multimedia-interactive system. The principal objective is to find out whether the use of a prototype multimedia-interactive delivers better outcomes in teaching complex subjects such as data structures, than web page and traditional teacher-led instruction approaches. Information Systems Design Theory was used to develop a multimediainteractive tool. Students were taught to use binary trees to compare the three teaching methods. Pilot test results show that there are significant differences in performance of students who used the multimedia-interactive tool. It is concluded that the multimedia-interactive system prototype can effectively be used to help students learn binary trees
