摘要:AbstractThis article is motivated by the fact that teachers choose a form of visualization basing on their subjective views on the ways to make multimedia presentation or on the existing standards, not taking into account that effective acquisition of visual information equally depends on psychological characteristics of students. The main purpose of this research is to identify psychological characteristics assisting students’ effective acquisition of information presented in different visual forms (text, charts, comics) in e-learning. The methods used included, firstly, experiment in an educational setting, secondly, control tasks created on the basis of Bloom's taxonomy, and, finally, psychodiagnostic techniques studying: cognitive and metacognitive skills, learning motivation, and self-organization. The findings allow us to identify which forms of electronic visual information are more suitable for students of certain psychological types. These results can help teachers to create conditions for students’ more effective absorption of visual information by taking into account their psychological characteristics.
