25. A literature review
Koenraad (2008)
• More chances for interaction, collaboration and
discussion, particularly in comparison with other
ICT-use.
• Attention focus (cinema-effect) enhances
motivation, also because of improved lesson
pace….
• - and this better pace offers more opportunities
for repetition, more detailed explanation & test
preparation.

26. • pupils can cope with more complex concepts by
actually handling related objects
• Handling + concurrent thinking aloud supports
verbalising thinking and insight development
• increased chances for learning style matches
thanks to multi-modal and haptic affordances
