TL;DR
The findings suggest that the presentation of material as motion video rather than as a slide show within an interactive video course leads to better recall performance.
Abstract
Abstract New digital video technologies provide a wide spectrum of multimedia interface capabilities for educational courses running on personal computers. A formal experiment was conducted using a digital video course on code inspection to determine the effects of such capabilities on recall performance and attitude. The findings suggest that the presentation of material as motion video rather than as a slide show within an interactive video course leads to better recall performance. In addition, the presence of motion video in the interfaces and the use of surrogate travel for navigation promote better student opinions toward the subject matter.

Cognitive ScienceToward a Theory of Intrinsically Motivating Instruction*

A rudimentary theory of intrinsically motivating instruction is developed, based on three categories: challenge, fantasy, and curiosity, which suggests that cognitive curiosity can be aroused by making learners believe their knowledge structures are incomplete, inconsistent, or unparsimonious.

Why is synthetic speech harder to remember than natural speech?
5 Citations1985John Waterworth
Results of the experiments described here, which involved ordered recall of lists of ten words spoken in either a synthetic or a natural voice, with repetition of the words as a measure of successful encoding, indicate that most of the memory deficit with synthetic speech is due to encoding difficulties, rather than problems with item retention.

It is suggested that the presence of motion video in interfaces can lead to better recall performance than if no motion video exists in the interface, and material containing some motion video will be recalled better than if the same material is presented as audio with still images.
