The study of memory, imagination and empathy is largely isolated.Thus, our empathic tendency to care for and help others is thought to be independent of our ability to remember and imagine events.Despite this theoretical autonomy, research from psychology and neuroscience suggests that these cognitive abilities may be related(Gaesser, 2013). https://youtu.be/sQb95itdoCM Children's use of imagination in … Continue reading imagination effect reduce cognitive load →

The non-essential condition of learning cognitive load is related to the transfer of cognitive resources in activities unrelated to … Continue reading Extraneous Cognitive Load →

Intrinsic cognitive load can be reduced by breaking down the subject content, sequencing the delivery so that sub-tasks are taught individually before being explained together as a whole. The idea is to not overwhelm a student too early on in the introduction of new work.  Ayres tested the effectiveness of teaching strategies to reduce cognitive load by reducing task complexity … Continue reading Reducing Intrinsic cognitive load →

Cognitive Load Theory identifies three different forms of cognitive load:  1.Intrinsic cognitive load: the inherent difficulty of the material itself, which can be influenced by prior knowledge of the topic.This refers to the inherent complexity of the learning material.According to Sweller, in 2010, it "can only be changed by changing the nature of the knowledge learned or by changing the behavior of the learning … Continue reading The definition of Cognitive Load Theory →

The premise of cognitive load is that the total expected processing of learning content exceeds the learner's cognitive ability (Mayer, & Moreno, 2003). Namely, every student will suffer from cognitive load in learning. Meanwhile, Cognitive Load Theory (CLT) includes three loads that intrinsic cognitive load, extraneous cognitive load, and germane cognitive load. This picture could … Continue reading Blog 5: What is the Cognitive Load Theory (CLT)? →

Mayer (2003) and Moreno (2003) regard that the human information processing system consists of two separate channels, auditory and visual, and each channel has a limited capacity. However, learners need a lot of cognitive processing in the process of learning. In other words, the energy of the learners is limited, they can't focus on many … Continue reading Blog 2: I can’t burden too much information →
