Information Visualization as a Method for Cybersecurity Education

Improving Motivation and Learning Experience with a Virtual Tour of an Assembly Line to Learn about Productivity

“…These results can be attributed to the application of cognitive load theory principles in the design of the VT within the broader learning process. The incorporation of these principles ensured that the VT possessed suitable characteristics to effectively facilitate learning [22]. Won et al found, in a systematic literature review, that current studies on immersive technologies in the educational field do not line up the immersive technology with a pedagogical approach [18].…”

“…The evidence indicates that the use of simulations and immersive technologies for education is effective for the development of complex abilities [19]. A theory that supports the design of these strategies and learning resources is the theory of cognitive load [20], which is derived from the information processing model of Atkinson and Shiffrin [21] and serves as a background for some practices in education [22]. This instructional approach considers human cognitive architecture for facilitating learning in educational settings, and takes into account the limited capacity of working memory, the organization of longterm memory, and the interaction between both systems [20].…”
