Abstract

The cognitive theory of multimedia learning (TCAM) has promoted the development of multiple studies on designing materials and scenarios that achieve true learning. Taking these characteristics, the article reviews the literature to identify the areas of knowledge in which studies based on TCAM are being carried out and the main findings they have reached. For this, a systematic literature review methodology is used based on the study of research articles between 2018 and 2021 selected through Scopus and Web of Science. It is concluded that the areas where the use of TCAM has been most explored are language teaching (English and Mandarin), medicine (combines medical and nursing specialties), engineering (civil, systems, electrical), and geography. Among the main findings, it is identified that the principles most widely used are redundancy, signaling, and coherence; the importance of applying TCAM principles in designing learning materials or strategies to achieve effects associated with the reduction of cognitive load is validated. Studies highlight the importance of its management by teachers and instructional designers, the relevance of considering its application in the design of educational videos, and the need to consider the conditions of the students to whom the training is directed.
