Evidence Based Training Methods, 2nd Edition

 

PART 1

 

Evidence-Based Practice and Learning

In this section you will read about the foundational ideas that support this book. I will discuss the type of evidence included, presenting research on graphics to illustrate the different types of research you will read about throughout the book. You will also find a short summary of cognitive load theory—perhaps the most important recent explanation for how memory shapes human learning. This section of the book ends with a closer look at “active learning.” Here you will distinguish between behavioral and psychological activity and find that not all activity leads to learning.
