When working on the learning material, you had to keep many things in mind at the same time
The learning material was very complex.
Mean intrinsic cognitive load rating
When working on the learning material, it is tedious to recognise the most important information.
The presentation of the learning material is unfavourable for really learning something.
When it comes to learning material, it is difficult to relate the central contents to each other.
Mean germane cognitive load rating
I made an effort not only to remember individual things but also to understand and apply the whole diagnostic strategy when working on the learning material.
For me, working through the learning material was about understanding and applying everything correctly.
