Instructional Media
Images and words, in mutual support, are the oldest conveyers of information in human history.  Today’s Marines are accustomed to receiving the bulk of their information using all senses.  Delivering information through multiple forms of media dramatically improves the chance of successful communication and transfer of information by addressing all learning styles. Over fifty years of educational research indicates that still and motion media are an effective medium to learn both from and with.

Marines train as they fight.  Using Combat Camera imagery brings the Marine Corps into the classroom.  Images, photographs, graphics, animation and videos enhance initial comprehension and have been proven to aid in the long-term retention of information.  Media in the resident training of Marines are appropriate for triggering ideas; making difficult subjects more understandable; enhancing initial comprehension while holding attention on important areas; and helping students visualize a lesson and transfer abstract concepts into concrete, easier to remember objects.
