*Abstract:*
Advances in technology and changes in educational strategies have
resulted in the integration of technology in the classroom.
Multimedia instructional tools (MMIT) provide student-centered
active-learning instructional activities. MMITs are common in

introductory computer applications courses based on the premise that

MMITs should increase student learning. This study examined the use
of MMIT in an introductory computer applications course to determine
if a significant relationship existed between the level of use of
the MMIT and student learning. Subjects included students enrolled
in an online introductory computer applications course at one
southeastern university. The researchers used descriptive statistics
to demonstrate students' use of the MMIT and used pre and
post-course test scores to determine changes in learning. This study
revealed no significant impact on student learning based on level of
use of the MMIT grader assignments or training activities. A
significant difference was found for the level of use of MMIT
quizzes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
