“That's what education should be," I said, "the art of orientation. Educators should devise the simplest and most effective methods of turning minds around. It shouldn't be the art of implanting sight in the organ, but should proceed on the understanding that the organ already has the capacity, but is improperly aligned and isn't facing the right way.” ― Plato, The Republic

Information literacy: Cognition and learning• Mayer’s theory of multimedia learning• Anderson’s theory of ACT-R cognitive
architecture• Cognitive load

Cognitive Load Theory
• instructional guidance that promotes efficient learning is most successful
• the learner’s “working memory” correlates to their ability to sensually process information
• Vs Constructivism – which emphasises deep learning – a conceptual understanding of the learning material

Anderson’s theory of ACT-R cognitive architecture• To analyse knowledge processing • A framework for tasks for learning• Programmatic approach

Cognitive load
• Building knowledge using schemas• “encourages learner activities that
optimize intellectual performance”• worked-examples and goal-free problems.

Redesigning
• Beyond the eye tracking test• Incorporating narrative • Taking account of research that supports
MOOC developments
