Tingting Wang; Alejandra Ruiz-Segura; Shan Li; Susanne P. Lajoie – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: Scholars have confirmed the vital roles of self-regulated learning (SRL) behaviours in predicting task performance, especially within non-linear technology-rich learning environments (TREs). However, few studies focused on the learning costs (e.g., study effort and time-on-task) related to SRL and the efficiency outcome of SRL (i.e.,…

The Influence of a Pedagogical Agent on Learners' Cognitive Load
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Schroeder, Noah L. – Educational Technology & Society, 2017
According to cognitive load theorists, the incorporation of extraneous features, such as pedagogical agents, into the learning environment can introduce extraneous cognitive load and thus interfere with learning outcome scores. In this study, the influence of a pedagogical agent's presence in an instructional video was compared to a video that did…
