The combination of different modalities in the web-based learning environment: a comparative analysis of the perceptual instructional outcomes

The Web-based learning environment (WBLE) has the capability to incorporate many modalities (text, graphics, audio and video) and their combinations into one single medium for instructional purposes. However, when each modality combination is used, information is extracted differently through the in...
