Computer-based learning environments commonly comprise various linguistic as well as static and dynamic pictorial representations, frequently combined with the possibility to modify them interactively. While multiple and interactive external representations have the potential to improve learning in specific ways, they also place specific demands on learners. For instance, learners have to proce...

Abstract In this eye‐tracking experiment, we compared instructional videos with static signals, dynamic signals and no signaling in a within‐subject design. We tracked eye movements from 28 undergraduate chemistry students while they were watching about reaction mechanisms the different conditions. Further, assessed students' cognitive load, as well retention performance. employed Latin square ...

Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk memperoleh gambaran bagaimana cognitive load siswa SMP dalam materi sistem ekskresi pada pembelajaran tatap muka terbatas pasca pandemi Covid-19. di salah satu Kabupaten Bogor Tahun Pelajaran 2021/2022. Cognitive diukur berdasarkan tiga komponen yaitu usaha mental menggambarkan extraneous (ECL), kemampuan menerima dan mengolah informasi yang intrinsic (ICL), serta...

Abstract According to cognitive load theory, learning can only be successful when instructional materials and procedures are designed in accordance with human architecture. In this context, one of the biggest challenges is accurate measurement different types as these associated various activities during learning. Building on psychometric limitations currently available questionnaires, a new in...

Purpose – Achievement emotions have been shown to mediate the association between achievement goals and learning performance, but no research date has tested whether there is a similar process in predicting germane cognitive load. Based on control-value theory of academic (Pekrun, 2006), present study model determine goal orientation extraneous load were mediated by Methodology This survey invo...

The study investigated the extent to which two types of instructional materials and learner field dependence–independence affected learners’ cognitive load, time spent on task, and problem-solving performance in a complex system with a computer-modeling tool. One hundred and one primary student teachers were initially categorized into field dependent, field mixed, and field-independent learners...

This study aims to verify the learning effectiveness of a desktop virtual reality (VR)-based learning environment, and to investigate the effects of desktop VR-based learning environment on learners with different spatial abilities. The learning outcome was measured cognitively through academic performance. A quasi pretest-posttest experimental design was employed for this study. A total of 431...

This study investigated the instructional efficiency of adaptive instruction to learner expertise in the domain of C programming language with college students. It also aimed to investigate whether a bimodal process-oriented worked-out example (WOE) could effectively control extraneous cognitive load and further improve instructional efficiency. For this purpose, a learner-paced problem-solving...

Traditionally, in technical expository writing, illustrations are treated as adjuncts to the text where the reader is referred to the illustrations by the text which describes or explains the illustration rather than being tightly integrated into the narrative. Recent research in cognitive psychology is producing a new set of guidelines that define how to effectively use illustrations. Based on...
