Abstract

- The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of multimodal information presentation on sequential and global learners' historical understanding: theme and chronological. There were 134 secondary school learners enrolled (69 learning in chronological mode, 65 learning in thematic mode). Prior to the start of the treatment session, learners took a pre-test. The findings indicated that multimodal information presentation had no distinct effect on historical understanding between learners who learn chronologically and those who learn thematically. It was claimed that the chronological frame of reference technique, which resembled an interactive timeline, aided learners' sequential learning in chronological mode. On the other hand, learners who learnt in a theme method made bigger increases in historical understanding than learners who learned in a chronological mode. Learners who demonstrated a significant difference in their assessment of historical understanding demonstrated the efficacy of multimedia information presentation in the acquisition of abstract historical concepts
