Abstract: The research involves in two experiments.The first one,the declarative knowledge is the study content,in the second,the study content is the procedural knowledge.Under the two conditions,the two experiments respectively explore the influence of informational representational modes,the different cognitive style and spatial ability of learners on the multimedia learning effect in multimedia environment in between-subject design.The result indicated,Firstly, different cognitive style had influence on the learning effect of declarative knowledge in multimedia environment,while representational modes of multimedia information and spatial ability of learning did not.Secondly,as for the retention of procedural knowledge,representational modes of multimedia information and cognitive style of learners had influence on the learning effect of procedural knowledge in multimedia environment,while,the spatial ability of learners did not. Moreover,different cognitive style had different impact on different presentation modes of multimedia information. Finally,as for the transfer of procedural knowledge,representational modes of multimedia information,cognitive style and spatial ability of learners had influence on the learning effect of procedural knowledge in multimedia environment. Besides,different cognitive style and spatial ability had different impact on different presentation modes of multimedia information.

Key words: representational mode of information, cognitive style, spatial ability, multimedia learning
