Exigency of Cognitive Radio Networks

Cognitive radio is the restorative technology to authorize the efficient usage of restricted natural resource radio frequency spectrum for the wireless devices. The technology empowers the telecommunication industry by renovating the traditional static spectrum access approach to dynamic spectrum access to stimulate the unlicensed users to access underutilized licensed band; without creating an...

Using cognitive theory to facilitate medical education

BACKGROUND Educators continue to search for better strategies for medical education. Although the unifying theme of reforms was "increasing interest in, attention to, and understanding of the knowledge base structures", it is difficult to achieve all these aspects via a single type of instruction. METHODS We used related key words to search in Google Scholar and Pubmed. Related search results...

Applying cognitive load theory to medical education: construct and measurement challenges

describes several excellent strategies to optimize intrinsic load and minimize extraneous load. As noted by the authors, there is legitimate disagreement about the construct of germane cognitive load and how it relates to intrinsic load. However, we do not agree with Leppink and Van den Heuvel’s rejection of germane load as an independent construct. Four of six prior studies performed by Leppin...

The evolution of cognitive load theory and its application to medical education

Cognitive Load Theory (CLT) has started to find more applications in medical education research. Unfortunately, misconceptions such as lower cognitive load always being beneficial to learning and the continued use of dated concepts and methods can result in improper applications of CLT principles in medical education design and research. This review outlines how CLT has evolved and presents a s...
