Video on Exponents: [] media type="custom" key="6534325" This video introduces the concept of exponents in basic Algebra. There is some extraneous information here, especially with the second person on the screen. Only once did I see signaling occur whether in video or audio format.

Slide Show on Feudalism: http://teachertube.com/viewArticle.php?article_id=2016&title=FEUDALISM_SLIDES__RESUME_# This slide show begins with some signaling at the beginning but is not consistent throughout. Graphic organizers are present but animations make them harder to follow.

[|springsinger2] La Verne Martin Example #1 The signaling principle states that people learn better when they are provided cues that highlight the organization of the essential material (Mayer, 2009, p. 108).This past year our students were introduced to Jiji, the math concepts penguin from the MIND Institute. Although you will find plenty of explanations on the home website that explain how to solve the math problems, when the students encounter Jiji, there is no signaling, no explanation, or example of how to solve the interactive math problems. The company states that they want the students to solve the problems visually, and without words. They only get two Jiji’s before they die and must start over. They must start solving problems visually from the beginning with no signaling of any kind and sometimes they get very frustrated before they discover the correct combinations. I think that they would be less frustrated if they were given the same instructions that parents and teachers see when they go to the website to check out program, and I don’t believe their problem-solving would suffer.

Hey everyone!

I have a video for your viewing pleasures:) The link is below.. I can't make changes to pages so I am putting it here.

This video didn't really have signaling in it at all. I found it to be rather fast paced and a bit confusing with it covering so much information and not in much detail for each thing. I guess you could say the pictures and visuals were cues but I would have used different ones and more for each point I was trying to get across. All in all I feel that the video could have been better and the information could have been covered better as well.

Signaling: Tiffany Wilkinson

This website has very little appropriate signaling. I think it has effective parts to it, but it eventually adds text to almost every word spoken. []
