Working Memory and Dual Coding

This week we really start to draw on previous episodes with the theory of Dual Coding. Key to this is Working Memory Model (for a image of this please use this link) which is covered here. This epsiode then discusses dual coding before extending to the Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning proposed by Mayer (2002) and links it back to Schemas and Cognitive Load Theory (the links take you back to previous episodes). Finally we consider the EEF's review of the evidence and then the implications for classroom practice.
