摘要:The challenge today for educators interested in online teaching and learning is how to create, use
and assess multimedia technologies for enhanced learning. Unlike hypertext and web-based instruction,
the reliance on reading blocks of text is minimized. There still remains little evidence
supporting multimedia to enhance learning. From the author¡¯s perspectives, the challenge is to
better understand the processes involved in developing effective multimedia tools and to establish
appropriate assessment methodologies that may be used to guide standards and ¡®good educational
multimedia design practice¡¯. This paper aims at sharing the author¡¯s experiences with the development
of a multimedia tool and its assessment. A multimedia learning system (MMLS) is presented
and the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) is used to explain user acceptance. We investigate
and discuss the TAM results involving a different technology used in a different context.
As an initial attempt to understand students¡¯ beliefs, perceptions, attitudes and intentions
(and their inter-relationships) our results show that TAM performs well in explaining them.
