Matt’s work focuses on the nexus between multimedia design principles derived from experimental research and the everyday realities of secondary school classroom practice. In particular, he explores how teachers choose and use instructional videos in the age of algorithmically driven streaming platforms. He asks what cognitive theories can offer to teachers engaged in this practice, and what their reasoning, situated in reality not a lab, can offer to these theories.
