Enhancing Learning Experiences through Interactive Visual Communication Design in Online Education

Abstract

This article delves into the effects of interactive visual communication design on online learning, as learners increasingly turn to digital tools. The research aims to assess how interactive visual communication design can improve learning experiences in online education, focusing on its influence on student engagement, knowledge retention, and inclusivity. By examining these aspects, the study offers insights into crafting more effective digital learning environments. Furthermore, it puts forth hypotheses suggesting that integrating visual communication design elements into courses can lead to greater effectiveness compared to traditional instructional methods. Employing a qualitative systematic literature review, the study investigates the potential of interactive visual communication design to transform online education. Five pertinent articles meeting strict inclusion and exclusion criteria are meticulously chosen for analysis based on relevance, recent publication, and their contributions to understanding the efficacy and challenges of visual design in digital education. Additionally, synthesizing findings from 30 selected papers yields a comprehensive model comprising a detailed set of outcomes and fundamental elements related to interactive visual communication design in online learning. This model revolves around key themes such as Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT), various types of Video Lectures, Challenges in Online Learning Behaviour in Higher Education, and Future Trends in e-learning. Notably, the study's findings highlight that interactive visual design substantially enhances student engagement, facilitates better knowledge retention, and promotes inclusivity in online learning settings. These insights culminate in a holistic model that underscores the transformative potential of visual design elements in the realm of digital education.
