What is Multimodal Learning?

Multimodal learning is a concept in teaching that says that students retain more information while learning using multiple senses. For instance, when it comes to customer training, some of the customers will learn better from reading and writing in a text-based course than from listening to or watching a physical demonstration. Multimodal Learning goes a step further and recommends that you should use multiple teaching styles in training and educating. So, instead of only including text-based assignments or videos in your course, you use both text, video, and other self-paced course formats that stimulate different senses.
