Abstract

Working memory is used to process information of our mental representations and new knowledge. In learning English language, students are faced with various kinds of material and instruction that relate to the development of their knowledge and skills. However, extraneous information may overload their cognitive load and inhibit their knowledge and performances. Therefore, the theory of cognitive load effects provides a solution towards the overloading of cognitive capacity by introducing cognitive load effects. Cognitive load theory itself deals with the instructional design methods that use the limited cognitive capacity of learners.  There are three sources or types of cognitive load: the intrinsic load, extraneous load, and germane load. By analyzing an English textbook for class VIII secondary level in Indonesia designed by the Ministry of Education and Culture for distance learning in the Covid-19 pandemic era, this paper points out several cognitive load principles that create a better schema construction and automation that contribute to the decreased cognitive load.

Abstract

The objectives of the current research are to identify and quantify the cognitive strategies non-English students use when working on assignments or solving problems of the English language they are learning and seek to find out non-English students’ motivation and background knowledge of English as sustaining factors related to the use of numerous cognitive strategies leading to the success of learning. This research employed a case study qualitative approach. Data were taken from observations and interviews and were analyzed using thematic analysis. Results of this research show that non-English students treated as the subject of this research employed the so-called cognitive strategies in doing all tasks, including auditory representation, repetition, note-taking, resourcing, inferring, translation, and transfer. Although most students had only the so-called instrumental motivation, weak interest, and also, they lacked knowledge of English, yet it is proven that the cognitive strategies they employed have enabled them to do all given tasks. An important implication of this study is that learning should include training and supporting the students to understand the importance of learning strategy.
