Abstract :
Introduction: This research was conducted with the aim of investigating the effectiveness of multimedia educational design based on cognitive load theory on the academic progress and self-concept of students in the fifth grade science course. research methodology: The research method was experimental with a pre-test and post-test design for both experimental and control groups. The statistical population of the present study was made up of all the male students of the fifth grade of elementary school in district one of Shiraz city in the academic year of 2021-2022, whose number is estimated to be around 2000 people, referring to the education department of Shiraz city. Sixty of the students under study were selected as a sample through purposive sampling method. The tools used in this research were the Chen and Thompson self-concept questionnaire and the academic achievement test of the science course. The face and content validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by experts and technical people, and the reliability was confirmed through Cronbach's alpha method. Descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (univariate and multivariate covariance analysis) were used to analyze the data. Findings: The results of the research indicated that the education through a multimedia educational program based on cognitive load theory explains 15.2% of the variance of academic achievement and 25.1% of the variance of self-concept. Conclusion: The results indicated that the students who used the multimedia educational program based on cognitive load theory had a better situation than other students in terms of academic progress and self-concept.
