There remain many unanswered questions
related to the use of digital time-compression
in multimedia learning environments. First,
we have been unable to locate any relevant
articles that investigate the use of digital timetimecompression
with instructional video or
narrated screen recordings. With the explosion
of YouTube and other relevant video sources
like Lynda.com, we believe the next logical step
is to rigorously examine time-compressed video
learning materials, including narrated screen
recordings. As a result, the authors have begun
a research program to examine both timecompressed
instructional video and narrated
screen recordings using similar procedures to the
ones presented in this review.
