Contiguity principle
Redundancy principle
The trainings on Microsoft website immediately jump out because they exactly follow this principle: the narrator is simply repeating word by word that is on the same page. For a while, I was wondering why they had to read when we can see the text. Maybe it’s because of the intention of being ADA compliant. I’m not sure.

This is a good example of a how-to article page on Survey Monkey website. Different interface screen shots represent different how-to topics. The alignment of the graphics and text on the screen is just right. Users don’t have to scroll down much and possibly lose the graphics that explain the texts. The page is very easy to be searched via google, and once viewers are directed to this page, they easily find the specific topics that interest them.
Modality principle 
This YouTube Photoshop tutorial example is a good one. It explains how to use Correction tool within Photoshop. The audio part of the video dominates this learning experience. Without it, learner would be bored to death, and the outcomes are not guaranteed since the audience would find it hard to watch the screen closely enough not to miss a step.
