The Interplay between Cognitive Load and Self-Regulated Learning in a Technology-Rich Learning Environment
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Wang, Tingting; Li, Shan; Lajoie, Susanne – Educational Technology & Society, 2023
Cognitive load can be induced by both learning tasks and self-regulated learning (SRL) activities, which compete for limited working memory capacity. However, there is little research on the relationship between cognitive load and SRL. This study explored how cognitive load interplayed with SRL behaviors and their joint effects on task performance…

Bedard, Denis; And Others – 1996
A 2-year study at the University of Sherbrooke (Quebec) investigated the changes in six medical students' clinical reasoning processes as they participated in a problem-based learning (PBL) curriculum. In each year, students performed a think-aloud protocol with two medical case problems to solve, one in cardiology and one in urology. In the…
