Rethinking PowerPoint Slide Design for Multimedia Learning

“…In the current study, it is assumed that both reflective learning and active information processing will play a major role in differential processing of PowerPoint presentations. Specifically, reflective learning involves the internalization of information and processing of information in the context of one's self and one's own experiences (Coulson & Harvey, 2013), and has been evidenced to strongly influence the learning process and learning outcomes (e.g., Perusso et al, 2020). Active information processing consists of conscious activity from the learner, such as mental organization and attentional focus, accompanied by major cognitive investment (Mayer, 2001).…”

Digital Tools and Experiential Learning in Science-Based Entrepreneurship Education

This type of research helps to close the "relevance gap" in management education (Perusso et al, 2020)-that is, the extent to which management education prepares students for real life, "wicked" management problems for which a traditional theory-based management education program does not prepare them sufficiently.

In science-based entrepreneurship education, students need to gain experience with the process of transferring scientific knowledge and subsequent innovation to contexts of application and commercialization.…”

“…By drawing upon the work of Perusso et al (2020Perusso et al ( , 2021 a set of design principles for effective experiential learning is formulated. It is analyzed how digital tools contribute to experiential learning projects in the SBEE program.…”

Noticing, curation, cultivation: Academic development leadership in the arts university

“…Fine Art); or as a verb, the iterative nature of creative learning. As I reflect on my leadership practice, I am considering it through all of these lenses: as a set of professional practices encompassing creative modes of working; a way of making new knowledge about the ways in which I work; leadership as a function of my work; and as something that needs to be continually worked at (Perusso et al 2019).…”
