The purpose of this study was to review the definition of cognitive load (CL), the relationship between CL and instructional design, and to provide a viewpoint of CL in curriculum and instructional design in medical education. Cognitive load theory (CLT) makes use of three hypotheses about the structure of human memory: working memory (WM) is limited in terms of the amount of information it can hold, in contrast with WM, long term memory is assumed to have no limits and organizes information as schemata. CL indicates the mental load on the limitation of WM. CLT has been used to design instructional interventions that help to ease the learning process. Extraneous CL is related to irrelevant instructional interventions, while intrinsic CL is the complexity of the information itself. Germane CL is the cognitive process for acquiring schema formation. It is a necessary CL to achieve deeper comprehension and solve problems. The range of medical education includes complex, multifaceted and knowledge-rich domains with clinical skills and attitudes. Therefore, CLT may be used to guide instructional design in medical education in terms of decreasing extraneous CL, adjusting intrinsic CL and enhancing the germane CL.

In this study the author examines the health information seeking behavior of older adults from the perspective of cognitive load. Using a qualitative method, based on ground theory, data were collected using in-depth interviews. Twenty-eight participants were participating older adults living in G community city, South Korea who experienced seeking health information. Interview transcripts were analyzed using a qualitative thematic coding framework. Three themes describing older adults' health information seeking behaviors were focused: intrinsic, extraneous, and germane cognitive load. The findings are geared towards the context of older adults' information seeking to support an understanding of successful information seeking behaviors in this population and to contribute to their health and well-being. The intent is to present information on current research in the field of Library and Information Science and to demonstrate how a cognitive load approach can be used to address the problems of older adults' health information seeking behaviors.

본 연구는 인지 부하 이론에서 도출된 설계 원리를 적용하여 PDA를 활용한 학습 프로그램을 개발하는데 목적이 있다. 인지 부하 이론에 따르면, 학습 프로그램은 학습자의 활성기억고 내의 인지 부하를 최적화하도록 설계되어야 한다. 최적화란 학습자의 활성기억고 내에 있는 인지 부하 중에서 학습에 효과적인 인지 부하를 높이거나 비효과적인 인지 부하를 낮춘 상태이다. 본 연구에서는 비효과적인 인지 부하 중 하나인 외재적 인지 부하를 낮추는 양식, 중복, 주의 분산 멀티미디어, 해결된 예 원리를 적용하여 PDA 기반 학습 프로그램을 개발함으로써 효과적인 모바일 학습 프로그램을 위한 가능성을 탐색해보았다.

This study investigated the effect of generative concept maps according to learning achievements and cognitive load. A total of 78 students in the first grade of middle school participated in this study. Before the experimental treatment was implemented, students had to fill out a questionnaire assessing prior knowledge. The study was designed where all the students were presented the same learning contents regarding photosynthesis; however, the two experimental groups were provided with different concept map methods: a learner-generative concept map (GCM) and an instructor-provided concept map (PCM). GCM students were asked to make a concept map by themselves in small groups while they are reading material. PCM students were instructed to study in small groups in order to read the material; however, they were provided a concept map developed by their teacher. The control group (CG) had the teacher present the learning contents in traditional lecture format with no accompanying concept map. The results show that there were significant differences in the achievements among the groups. CG showed higher achievement than both the experimental groups. There was also a significant difference in cognitive load. Although the GCM group did not obtain higher achievement than the other groups, the GCM group showed higher mental effort and lower physical fatigue than the other groups. The GCM group might have invested more effort to find and connect ideas when drawing their concept map with peers which is unlike the conditions for the PCM group and CG. In conclusion, we should consider applying GCM in teaching and learning design in order to increase learning achievement and decrease extraneous cognitive load.

본 연구는 인공지능을 활용한 수업이 항공전문학교 학생의 인지적으로 미치는 영향을 검증하였다. 먼저 프레젠테이션을 활용한 수업에서 전통적인 멀티미디어 자료 기반의 수업과 Speech-to-text(STT)기반의 인공지능 자료로 구성된 수업을 개발하였다. A 항공 전문 교육기관의 학생 133명이 두 가지 유형의 수업에 참여하였다. 수업 전후에 학생들의 인지 부하와 Mind Wandering을 측정하였고, 성취도평가를 실시하였다. 검사의 분석 결과, 외재적 인지 부하는 감소하였고 콘텐츠 집중도가 높아졌으며 성취도가 향상됨을 확인하였다. 향후 기술을 지도하는 학교에서 인공지능 기반의 STT수업이 많이 활용되기를 기대한다.
