//**Segmenting principle**//: People learn better when a multimedia lesson is presented in learner-paced segments rather than as a continuous unit. || Example in PowerPoints || //**Coherence principle**//: People learn better when extraneous words, pictures, and sounds are excluded rather than included. || Paper mache Sculptures: very simple images and text || //**Personalization principle**//: People learn better when the words are in conversational style rather than formal style. || Paper mache Sculptures: I recorded my own voice to narrate the information on the slides. || Create 3 DISTINCT PowerPoints following Mayer's Principles of 10- to 12 slides each to Define a Core Content topic.
 * PowerPoints that TEACH! ||  ||
 * ===Principles for managing essential processing===
 * //**Pre-training principle**//: People learn better from a multimedia lesson when they know the names and characteristics of the main concepts. || Paper mache Sculptures: Each slide is labeled with the main concepts. ||
 * //**Modality principle**//: People learn better from animation and narration than from animation and on-screen text. || Paper mache Sculptures: Use of two videos with narration. ||
 * ===Principles for reducing extraneous processing===
 * //**Redundancy principle**//: People learn better from animation and narration than from animation, narration, and on on-screen text. ||  ||
 * //**Signaling principle**//: People learn better when the words include cues about the organization of the presentation. ||  ||
 * //**Spatial contiguity principle**//: People learn better when corresponding words and pictures are presented near rather than far from each other on the page or screen. || Paper mache Sculptures: concepts are broken down into simple ideas ||
 * //**Temporal contiguity principle**//: People learn better when corresponding words and pictures are presented simultaneously rather than successively. ||  ||
 * ===Principles based on social cues===
 * //**Voice principle**//: People learn better when words are spoken in a standard-accented human voice than in a machine voice or foreign-accented human voice ||  ||
 * **//Image principle//**: People do not necessarily learn better from a multimedia lesson when the speaker’s image is added to the screen ||  ||

I created three PowerPoints to use with my middle school art students. The first video, Paper Mache Sculptures is for my 8th grade students, Paper Mache Bowls is for my 6th grade students and Paper Mache Masks was created for my 7th grade students.
