Development and Validation of Two Instruments Measuring Intrinsic, Extraneous, and Germane Cognitive Load [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2017 Cognitive Load Theory is one of the most powerful research frameworks in educational research. Beside theoretical discussions about the conceptual parts of cognitive load, the main challenge within this framework is that there is still no measurement ...

Examining Students’ Intrinsic Cognitive Load During Program Comprehension – An Eye Tracking Approach [PDF]
Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2020 Programming as a cognitive activity requires the utilization of various kinds of mental models that involve different cognitive loads while students learn to program. The article discusses the results of an experiment aimed at answering the following question: are eye tracking based measures related to the intrinsic cognitive load (ICL) connected with ...

Exploring cognitive load in anatomy education: a study of 3D virtual reality and 2D learning environments using fNIRS [PDF]
Frontiers in PsychologyIntroductionAlthough virtual reality (VR) is increasingly deployed as a tool for education, little is known about how learning modality influences cognitive processing or whether wearable neuroimaging technologies can accurately classify cognitive load ...

Communications in Computer and Information Science, 2019 Cognitive Load Theory has been conceived for supporting instructional design through the use of the construct of cognitive load. This is believed to be built upon three types of load: intrinsic, extraneous and germane. Although Cognitive Load Theory and its assumptions are clear and well-known, its three types of load have been going through a ...

Element Interactivity and Intrinsic, Extraneous, and Germane Cognitive Load
Educational Psychology Review, 2010 In cognitive load theory, element interactivity has been used as the basic, defining mechanism of intrinsic cognitive load for many years. In this article, it is suggested that element interactivity underlies extraneous cognitive load as well. By defining extraneous cognitive load in terms of element interactivity, a distinct relation between intrinsic

Reducing intrinsic cognitive load in percentage change problems: The equation approach [PDF]
Learning and Individual Differences, 2016 We compared the equation approach and unitary approach in helping students (n = 59) learn percentage change problems from a cognitive load perspective. The equation approach emphasized a two-part learning process. Part 1 revised prior knowledge of percentage quantity; Part 2 integrated the percentage quantity and the original amount in an equation for ...
