Abstract

The present paper reviews 2 cognitive approaches to research on e-learning. One theme has to do with learning strategies in relation to self-regulated learning in e-learning environments. Findings from that type of research provide rich insights into how to scaffold learning activities so as to lead learners to improved performance. The second theme has to do with cognitive load theory, dealing with cognitive constraints existing in human cognitive architecture. Findings from this latter type of research suggest how it might be possible to overcome cognitive overload when learners face difficult task requirements. The present article also discusses disciplines that might support learners' activities in e-learning environments and issues for future research.
