Cognitive science is a branch of psychology that attempts to explain human behavior by understanding how we think. Like cosmology, quantum physics , and many other branches of science, cognitive psychology employs models to describe something that can’t be directly observed.

In addition to the cognitive necessity of reactivating relevant knowledge (which can be done in an engaging way), we want to also set appropriate expectations about the coming experience. The point being that basically we’re opening the emotional as well as the cognitive story. A mismatch can undermine learner motivation.

In an earlier post, I made a defense of cognitive psychology (really, to me, cognitive science, a bigger umbrella). Learning science is an interdisciplinary field, including cognitive science, educational psychology, and more. We shouldn’t be using courses when job aids will suffice, as cognitive science tells us.
