A big challenge for the present-day trainers and teachers is to attract and retain the attention of the students and participants. In the era of social media and smartphones, students have several things that can distract them during the learning process and the responsibility to find ways to engage them effectively falls on the teacher. Based on a review of literature on technological developments, the researchers of the current study propose the use of whiteboard animation multimedia as a tool to enhance the learning experience. In the current study, the effectiveness of this technique is evaluated through a pre-test post-test control group design and the sample comprised of students of the master’s in business administration course. The findings provide empirical evidence supporting the use of whiteboard animation videos to supplement classroom learning.
