Teaching in Uncertain Times: Expanding the Scope of Extraneous Cognitive Load in the Cognitive Load Theory [PDF]
The COVID-19 pandemic caused an unprecedented and highly threatening, constrained, and confusing social and educational environment, we decided to expand the traditional focus of the extraneous load in Cognitive Load Theory (CLT) acknowledging the psychological environment in which learning occurs. We therefore adapted and implemented principles of the

Anxiety is associated with extraneous cognitive load during teaching using high-fidelity clinical simulation [PDF]
High-fidelity clinical simulation is currently a well-established teaching tool. However, high-fidelity representations of patients in critical conditions have the potential to elicit emotions among learners and impact their cognitive load (CL). Teaching with clinical simulation may induce both emotional and cognitive overloads.

Reasoning More Efficiently with Primary Knowledge Despite Extraneous Cognitive Load [PDF]
Geary's evolutionary approach in educational psychology differentiates between primary (low cognitive costs and motivational advantage) and secondary knowledge (high cognitive costs and no motivational benefit).

Cognitive load significantly influences learning effectiveness. All the three types of cognitive load—intrinsic, extraneous, and germane—are important for guiding teachers in preparing effective instructional designs for students. However, the techniques

The effect of signaling in dependence on the extraneous cognitive load in learning environments. [PDF]
AbstractText-based learning media are often used in primary, secondary and university education. Therefore, text designers can support the learner by highlighting the most relevant information by using visual cues. Despite this signaling effect’s broad empirical basis, the extent to which the effectiveness of educational signals is dependent on ...

Experiencing an art education program through immersive virtual reality or iPad: Examining the mediating effects of sense of presence and extraneous cognitive load on enjoyment, attention, and retention [PDF]
Sense of presence and extraneous cognitive load (ECL) are the two psychological effects widely employed to explain the cognitive outcomes caused by high-immersive media (e. g., virtual reality).

Understanding Cognitive Load in Digital and Online Learning: a New Perspective on Extraneous Cognitive Load [PDF]
AbstractCognitive load theory has been a major influence for the field of educational psychology. One of the main guidelines of the theory is that extraneous cognitive load should be reduced to leave sufficient cognitive resources for the actual learning to take place.

User interface design in mobile learning applications: Developing and evaluating a questionnaire for measuring learners' extraneous cognitive load [PDF]
Mobile learning is increasingly popular due to its flexibility in timing and location. However, challenges such as small screen sizes and poor user interface design can elevate learners' cognitive load, especially extraneous cognitive load, which hinders
