Summary
There has been an explosion in the uses of multimedia and their various platforms. The proliferation of different types of technology inclusion in education has become even greater due to the increased need for remote platforms for education globally. My focus in this paper is on providing a definition of multimedia learning with simulations. There are many types of simulations and this chapter presents a framework for understanding this diversity. In particular, I discuss the multimedia principles that inform the design of simulations along with research evidence of how simulations support learning. Future directions for this research are discussed.
