multimedia, they sometimes get caught up in the entertainment factor and neglect the critical analysis of the content necessary to create useful notes they can use for further study.”
When they create multimedia presentations, they are more likely to focus on the presentation (look) than content.
Multimedia ContinuedPowerpoint is a great option for
summarizing and notetaking◦Content on the slides needs to be

ability levels should be done sparingly
Groups should be small in size (3-4)
Cooperative learning groups should be used consistently, but not overused.
Three Types of Groups Informal, Formal, Base
