title = "Using cognitive load theory to improve the efficiency of learning to program",
abstract = "My research seeks to adopt existing knowledge from educational psychology and instructional design and apply it to the field of computer science education in an effort to make learning programming more time efficient. Specifically I will use cognitive load theory to improve the efficiency of learning to program. I have identified my first two studies: identifying the most appropriate modality for code segment explanations and determining the benefits of worked examples in learning programming.",
