21ST CENTURY HUMAN LEARNING AND PERFORMANCE . . . is regularly-interrupted with media notifications. What must Learning Specialists consider when designing and delivering instructional content and measuring performance? ------ "Media Multitasking Performance and Its Cognitive Requirements" "Media multitasking refers to the behavior of consuming multiple items or streams of information simultaneously (Ophir et al., 2009). In general, the human cognitive system is not well equipped for this type of information intake and processing. Several theoretical approaches, such as the capacity model of attention (Kahneman, 1973), the limited capacity hypothesis (Baddeley, 1969), the Limited Capacity Model of Motivated Mediated Message Processing (LC4MP; Lang, 2000, 2006), or the Threaded Cognition Model (Salvucci & Taatgen, 2008) assume that media multitasking costs are based on limited attentional and cognitive resources. If multiple tasks need to be completed simultaneously or in short succession, the limited resources must either be divided among these tasks or, when resources cannot be divided, only one task can be conducted at a given time, resulting in rapid and repeated switching between tasks (Salvucci & Taatgen, 2008). This can result in decreased performance.The Cognitive Load Theory (CLT; Sweller, 2010) further differentiates between three types of load that consume the limited capacity of the cognitive system, specifically of the working memory. This theory has been initially introduced to describe how the limitations of working memory affect information processing in instructional contexts. The CTL differentiates between three types of load on the working memory that occur when interacting with learning material. This differentiation provides insights on why media multitasking demands can burden the cognitive system and can thus impair performance. Intrinsic load describes the inherent difficulty and complexity of a task itself. Extraneous load is unnecessary cognitive load imposed by poorly designed instructional materials or irrelevant information. Germane load describes cognitive efforts of meaningful processing. The effort of resource allocation and task-switching that comes with media multitasking can be considered extraneous load within the terminology of the CTL. High extraneous load leaves less resources for germane load and thus meaningful processing and ultimately task performance. Accordingly, research on the effects of media multitasking has shown that scrolling social media sites, texting, or background TV can impair reading speed and comprehension or attention in a lecture as well as learning gains when watching instructional videos (e.g., Armstrong & Chung, 2000; Bowman et al., 2010; Demirbilek & Talan, 2018; Dietz & Henrich, 2014; Dönmez & Akbulut, 2021; Jeong & Hwang, 2012)."

The Importance of Human Touch in Gen AI for Learning Experience Design Gen AI, with its ability to produce content, holds promise for transforming the learning experience designer (LXD) role. But, amid the excitement surrounding gen AI, it's important to recognize that the human touch remains irreplaceable in creating content. Here's why: Creativity & Innovation While gen AI algorithms excel at creating content based on existing patterns and data, they lack the inherent creativity and human innovation. The LXD brings a unique perspective, intuition, and creative flair to the process. They possess the ability to conceptualize abstract ideas, and infuse learning materials with elements that resonate emotionally with learners. Contextual Understanding Understanding the nuances of learning contexts, cultural sensitivities, and learner demographics requires human insight and empathy. LXDs possess the ability to contextualize learning content, tailoring it to meet the diverse needs and backgrounds of learners. This contextual understanding is crucial for creating inclusive and culturally relevant experiences that resonate with diverse audiences. Pedagogical Expertise Effective learning experience design goes beyond content creation; it involves the application of pedagogical principles and instructional strategies to facilitate meaningful learning experiences. LXDs bring pedagogical expertise to the table, understanding how learners acquire knowledge, retain information, and engage with material effectively. This expertise enables them to design experiences that align with educational objectives and promote deep learning. Ethical Considerations Gen AI operates based on algorithms trained on vast datasets, raising ethical concerns regarding copyright infringement, biases, inaccuracies, and privacy issues. LXDs can ensure that AI-generated content adheres to ethical standards and aligns with learning values. LXDs evaluate content, identify potential biases, and mitigate ethical risks to ensure the integrity and fairness of learning experiences. In some cases, due to confidential information being sourced in the development process, LXDs cannot use gen AI tools at all. Adaptability & Iteration Learning experience design is an iterative process that requires continuous refinement and adaptation based on feedback and evolving needs. LXDs possess the ability to iterate, experiment, and adapt learning content in response to changing circumstances. While AI algorithms can automate certain aspects, human intervention is essential for refining, optimizing, and iterating on content to enhance its effectiveness. While gen AI offers opportunities to streamline content creation and enhance learning experiences, it's important to recognize that the human touch remains irreplaceable. By combining the strengths of AI technology with human expertise and creativity, LXDs can leverage gen AI to create more engaging, personalized, and effective learning experiences.

DRAFT/STUDY TIPS: Redesigning Learning with GPTs: Integrating the Zone of Proximal Development, Experienced Other, and Authoring Introduction The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) and its integration into various educational contexts have necessitated a rethinking of traditional learning paradigms. Among the most promising AI tools are Generative Pre-trained Transformers (GPTs), which offer vast potential to enhance and transform educational experiences. To effectively harness the capabilities of GPTs, it is essential to integrate foundational educational theories that support scaffolded and personalized learning. This paper explores how the concepts of the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD), Experienced Other, and Authoring can be employed to redesign learning modules to incorporate GPTs, thereby creating more dynamic and supportive educational environments. The analysis will focus on the application of these concepts to a specific module: Advanced Writing and Composition. Theoretical Framework Zone of Proximal Development The Zone of Proximal Development, introduced by Lev Vygotsky, is a foundational concept in educational psychology. It refers to the range of tasks that a learner can perform with the guidance and support of a more knowledgeable other but cannot yet accomplish independently. This concept emphasizes the importance of scaffolded learning, where instructional support is gradually removed as the learner gains proficiency. By identifying the ZPD, educators can tailor their instructional strategies to provide appropriate challenges and support, optimizing the learning experience.
