Abstract
While current e-learning activities mainly focus on static mode, this paper proposed an Active Multimodal Presentation (AMP) application, and evaluated the student achievement in static and active modes. Of the various AMP acquisition and presentation tools, this paper addresses the use of active text as input and output interaction and animation with video for presenting some learning contents. For the purpose of this study, learning contents have been built in a form of static and active presentations within the proposed application. We formed two different equivalent student groups who were given the pre- and post- tests. We showed the evaluation procedure and the achieved results using our proposed AMP prototype. The student achievement comparison revealed an interesting result showing that experimental students using AMP e-learning module achieved more knowledge than those using the traditional static e-learning modules.
