A method for multimedia user interface design for mobile learning

This paper defines a multimedia user interface design method for mobile learning. The method identifies user requirements, outlines information architecture, and presents a media selection process to represent information as efficiently as possible. The recommended design directs attention to key information and maximizes user involvement via Human-Computer Interaction design strategies. Media selection guidelines and heuristics to achieve the most attractive and usable designs are discussed. The method has been evaluated by a case study on a history-based topic. The study confirms that the method's steps are effective for designers and it has positive impact on multimedia user interface design for mobile learning. © 2017 IEEE.
