Abstract
Multimedia resources, such as images, sounds, videos and animations, aid for learning effectiveness when teachers utilize these elements to demonstrate concepts or conveying information. However, teachers often confronted with the limitations of showing more contents from multiple multimedia resources while preparing the teaching material. This research revealed that the multi-screen display could assist teachers to overcome the limitations and reduce the students’ cognitive load. Moreover, a “multi-screen multimedia integrated system” was proposed to provide teachers a platform for designing and displaying the multimedia teaching materials in multi-screen. The system was developed with intuitive design interface and functional displaying objects. With practical experiments, the system was proved to increase the efficiency both in teaching and learning.
