The First International Workshop on "Search as Learning with Multimedia Information" (SALMM) presents interdisciplinary contributions that address multimedia aspects insearch as learning scenarios. The research topic of search as learning (SAL) recently emerged in the field of information retrieval and investigates informal, web-based learning processes as they happen every day with the help of search engines. While highly active, the SAL community still shows a focus on textual documents. This conflicts with research on multimedia learning in educational psychology: Humans tend to grasp and internalize new knowledge easier and more efficiently when it is conveyed using multiple modalities. The workshop SALMM aims to bridge the gap between the communities of SAL and multimedia.
