Subclaims¶

q1 i? Hickey and colleagues analyze theoretical perspectives on the framing of instruction, including how, when, and by whom framing should be done for maximum learning benefit, with examples in online learning. → Richard E. West 2020 q1 i? Janssen and Kirschner elaborate on traditional cognitive load theory in light of computer-supported collaborative learning environments, presenting ideas for research and practice. → Richard E.

q1 · i? · theoretical · r2

The editorial summarizes the Hickey, Chartrand, and Andrews paper's analysis of "theoretical perspectives on the framing of instruction", with online learning examples and stated applicability to other contexts. Attributed summary; no data reported.

"Daniel Hickey, Grant Chartrand, and Christopher Andrews analyze theoretical perspectives on the framing of instruction, including how, when, and by whom this framing should be done for maximum learning benefit. They provide examples in the context of online learning, although their ideas would have applicability in other contexts as well."

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Special-issue frameworks argue for design-thinking-based and originary theory development in learning design and technology — related
• Special-issue papers articulate theoretical frameworks for inquiry, problem-based learning, and teacher learning and technology integration — related
• CSCL relations matter in two ways: interventions informed by empirical studies can support collaboration, and CSCL environments can foster key competencies — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
• Cognitive Load Theory lacks a motivational focus, which becomes problematic when interpreting interventions that foster effortful learning strategies — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
• Zusho concludes SRL, SAL, and engagement perspectives all entail learner adaptation, and that models of student learning mismatch how they are measured — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
• The OLSit framework connects learning theories with instructional design practices by providing theory-based strategies for improving student engagement in student-centered learning — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
