The Spatial Contiguity Principle in Multimedia is a fundamental concept in multimedia design that focuses on the spatial linkage between visual and verbal information for enhanced understanding and retention. This principle, rooted in cognitive theory, emphasizes the simultaneous presentation of visual and verbal information to optimize learning outcomes. The document explores the philosophical foundations of the principle and its applications in e-learning, highlighting guidelines and solutions for effective implementation in multimedia design. While the current use of the Spatial Contiguity Principle in digital learning is limited, researchers advocate for increasing awareness, integrating multimedia design into development processes, and creating engaging multimedia elements. It is essential to not rely solely on multimedia for learning but to use it as a complementary tool in education. By effectively applying the Spatial Contiguity Principle, the learning experience for learners in e-learning environments can be significantly enhanced.
