Abstract

Since 1990 the School of Education at James Cook University, Australia, has produced and delivered on- and off-campus teacher education courseware materials via interactive multimedia (IMM) mode. Over a similar time period a research program has developed to investigate, primarily, the effectiveness of IMM courseware, especially in terms of its mathemagenic properties. This paper documents pertinent research conducted with a cohort of Indigenous off-campus teacher education students studying through IMM materials in their remote home communities. The findings led to a profile of the cohort's (a) study approaches; (b) perceptions and usage patterns of IMM materials; (c) thinking process while interacting with the IMM courseware; (d) concept mapping and IMM courseware, (e) thinking and use of IMM click-drag interactions, and (f) usage patterns and perceptions of embedded metacognitive activities in the IMM courseware.
