• Resumen

  • This column summarizes a paper by Susan M. Land entitled Cognitive Requirements for Learning with Open-Ended Learning Environments (Educational Technology Research and Development 2000 48, 61-78), which discusses the cognitive demands on learners imposed by three important components of computer simulations. For each of these components, Land describes the cognitive demands placed on the learner, the problems associated with these demands, and the consequent implications for design of simulations and other OELEs that assist a learner in developing the skills necessary to meet the demands.
