Cognitive Overhead in Hypertext Learning Reexamined: Overcoming the Myths
Joerg Zumbach
Journal of Educational Multimedia and Hypermedia Vol. 15, No. 4 (October 2006) pp. 411–432
In hypertext learning, comparative research is mostly dedicated to differences in text-hypertext information retrieval and processing and to optimization on non-linear information retrieval. Most of these investigations are conducted within the...

Exploring the development and impact of learning styles: An empirical investigation based on explicit and implicit measures
Stephanie Moser; Joerg Zumbach
Computers & Education Vol. 125, No. 1 (October 2018) pp. 146–157
It is still controversial whether learning styles are unchangeable dispositions or flexible characteristics. Research on the development of learning styles is therefore in high demand. We suggest a conceptual model that describes both explicit and...

The Effect of Metacognitive Training and Prompting on Learning Success in Simulation-Based Physics Learning
Stephanie Moser; Joerg Zumbach; Ines Deibl
Science Education Vol. 101, No. 6 (2017) pp. 944–967
Computer-based simulations are of particular interest to physics learning because they allow learners to actively manipulate graphical visualizations of complex phenomena. However, learning with simulations requires supportive elements to scaffold...

Monitoring Students' Collaboration in Computer-Mediated Collaborative Problem-Solving: Applied Feedback Approaches
Joerg Zumbach; Peter Reimann; Sabine C. Koch
Journal of Educational Computing Research Vol. 35, No. 4 (2006) pp. 399–424
This research describes a methodology for applying design- and management-based scaffolding techniques aimed to enhance cooperative behavior. Based on assumptions of how successful online learning groups act together, we developed feedback-based...

Using Multimedia to Enhance Problem-Based Learning in Elementary School
Joerg Zumbach; Daniel Kumpf; Sabine Koch
Information Technology in Childhood Education Annual Vol. 2004, No. 1 (2004) pp. 25–37
Problem-Based Learning (PBL) is a contemporary teaching approach that has become increasingly applied way of academic education since its beginnings in the 1960s. Its popularity has grown since it was introduced into medical education and spread to...

Learning Life Sciences: Design and Development of a Virtual Molecular Biology Learning Lab
Joerg Zumbach; Stefanie Schmitt; Peter Reimann; Philipp Starkloff
Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching Vol. 25, No. 3 (July 2006) pp. 281–300
The life sciences, in particular molecular genetics, have become a pivotal area of research and innovation, and at the same time are amongst the most controversially discussed in today's society. Despite this discussion, the demand for life science...

Evaluation of Intercultural Instructional Multimedia Material on Implicit Xenophobic Cognition: Short Time Effects on Implicit Information Processing
Joerg Zumbach; Gerhard Schrangl; Chad Mortensen; Stephanie Moser
Journal of Educational Technology & Society Vol. 19, No. 4 (2016) pp. 190–202
Considering xenophobic attacks against foreigners and ethnic or religious motivated wars, there is a need for educational concepts to extinguish xenophobia. A model describing the cognitive processes involved in Xenophobic cognition was developed....
