Abstract

The rapid integration of digital tools in education has transformed classroom environments, creating new opportunities and challenges for instructional design. One key area of focus is the management of cognitive load, which refers to the mental effort required to process information during learning. Cognitive Load Theory (CLT) offers insights into how instructional materials can be optimized to improve learning outcomes. In digital classrooms, the effective design of instructional content becomes even more critical due to the increased multimedia elements and potential for cognitive overload. This study aims to explore the implications of Cognitive Load Theory (CLT) for instructional design in digital classrooms. It examines how digital tools, such as multimedia content and interactive activities, impact learners’ cognitive load and suggests strategies for reducing extraneous cognitive load to enhance learning efficiency and effectiveness. A mixed-methods approach was used, combining quantitative surveys to assess students’ cognitive load during digital learning activities and qualitative interviews with instructors to understand their perspectives on instructional design challenges. The study was conducted across several digital learning environments in higher education. The findings indicate that digital learning environments often lead to high cognitive load, particularly when multimedia content is poorly integrated. However, using principles from CLT, such as segmenting information and reducing unnecessary complexity, can significantly lower cognitive load and improve student learning outcomes. Both students and instructors reported that well-designed digital content led to better engagement and more efficient learning. The study concludes that applying Cognitive Load Theory to instructional design in digital classrooms can enhance learning by minimizing cognitive overload. Educators should be mindful of cognitive load when creating digital learning experiences to improve student performance and engagement.

Abstract

Social behavior plays a crucial role in shaping students’ interpersonal relationships and their ability to function effectively in a community. However, the increasing prevalence of negative behaviors such as bullying and lack of empathy among elementary school students has highlighted the need for effective interventions. Character education, which focuses on fostering ethical values and social skills, has emerged as a promising approach to address these challenges. This study investigates the influence of character education programs on the social behavior of elementary school students. A quasi-experimental design was employed, involving 100 students divided into an experimental group that received character education lessons and a control group that followed the standard curriculum. Data were collected using behavioral observation checklists, teacher evaluations, and student self-assessment questionnaires. The findings revealed a significant improvement in the social behavior of students in the experimental group, including increased empathy, cooperation, and conflict resolution skills. Teachers noted enhanced classroom interactions and reduced instances of negative behaviors.
