All these cases hint at information overload. Cognitive load theory in Instructional Design comes to the rescue. The theory was proposed by John Sweller in 1988 and is built on the way the human mind processes information. Let us understand how the human brain processes information.

While our cognitive architecture has incredible capabilities (how else could we come up with advances such as Mystery Science Theater 3000?), The same adaptive capabilities that let us cope with information overload in both familiar and new ways also lead to some systematic flaws. it also has limitations. What do we do?

It was coined by mathematician John von Neumann to define a theoretical moment when the artificial intelligence of computers surpasses the capacity of the human brain. In this post, we’ll talk about the Turing test, how computers are already augmenting human cognition, and what it may mean to the learning profession.

All these cases hints to the information overload. Cognitive load theory, Instructional Design theory comes to the rescue, it prescribes a scientific way to design learning materials at a pace and level of complexity that the learner can fully understand. Let us understand how the human brain processes information.

A Tale of Cognitive Overload Your learners’ brains are not infinite vessels; they have a limit on how much they can process at a given time, a concept explored by cognitive load theory. The trick is to use images that serve as cognitive aids and are directly relevant to the material at hand. Build wisely.
