How students use video controls—speed watching, rewinding, scrubbing—predicts STEM learning. For novices, these boost scores; for more knowledgeable folks, not so much!
Design & teach for active engagement.
Great work by @shelbikuhlmann.bsky.social! #PsychSciSky #AcademicSky #EduSky
Curious about how help-seeking behaviors relate to learning in an online learning environment? Then check out this open access (!) article authored by Chenyu Hou, featuring the outstanding mentoring of @shelbikuhlmann.bsky.social! doi.org/10.1007/s114...
In her thesis study, Noelle tested two, previously validated, cognitive load instruments under the revised cognitive load theory, which excludes germane load as distinct construct. And she found great psychometric evidence for modeling CLT across just the remaining two factors.
It has been a fantastic day watching my graduate student, Noelle Patterson, successfully defend her Master’s Thesis! She gave an excellent presentation & wrote an excellent document. I’m so grateful to have worked with her for my first 2 years as an Assistant Professor. We will miss her in the lab!
It was a great #AERA2025 bringing my students for the first time, presenting our work on SRL with videos, co-hosting the #MotSIG ECR social with the amazing @allisonzengilowski.bsky.social, & connecting with all my academic besties! 💙 Now I get to read in the mountains for a few days!
It’s presentation season for the KuhlMedia & Mind Lab! Undergraduate student, Tatum Terrell, presented our study on SRL with videos at the MidSouth Psychology Conference. Master’s student, Noelle Patterson, presented her thesis work on measuring cognitive load at the UofM student research forum.
#LatePost but myself and other psychology faculty joined the #MarchForScience in Nashville. It was a great collection of TN scientists sharing how science is for everyone!
Something about the KuhlMedia & Mind lab is that we are going to try and find the joy in any possible moment (even now 🙃). This week’s joy was getting a sign for our new lab space and hanging the beautiful wreath made by PhD student, Haley Siegfried (and her mom 🥲).
