Page 62 - Producing a Video to Communicate a New Model of Coaching to GAA Coaches

decided to use Sparkol Videoscribe to produce basic animated line drawings

representing the graphics (Appendix K) to introduce or, using Koumi’s terminology,
‘signpost’ each element of the model. Doing so would ‘segment’ the information into

chunks of related information as advocated by Mayer (2008), Ibrahim et al (2012) and

Guo et al (2014).

I further used Keynote to reinforce these graphics during Paudie’s dialogue by using the

‘picture in picture’ functionality to support an optimisation of cognitive load and the
retention and transfer of knowledge in the viewer as predicted by Mayer (2008) (Fig.

4.4)

In line with Koumi’s ‘consolidation’ principle the animations built up sequentially

10’
through each segment to represent the ‘Coach logo at the end of the video (Fig. 4.5).
