# Cognitive Ux Learning

> Design and audit learning, course, tutoring, practice, and educational websites using cognitive-science evidence. Use when learners must understand, practice, receive feedback, remember, and return; return objective-to-practice sequencing, cognitive-load audit, accessible media rules, mastery signals, and learning—not just completion—measures.

## About

# Cognitive UX: Learning & Courses

## Scope

Use for teaching and practice experiences. Use `cognitive-ux-content` for informational reading with no deliberate practice loop.

## Intake

- Identify learner prior knowledge, goal, context, access needs, and time between sessions.
- Identify learning objectives, prerequisite knowledge, practice, feedback, and assessment stakes.
- Identify media, authoring constraints, integrity requirements, and what counts as mastery.

State assumptions that could change the design. Define the primary user task, its consequence of failure, and a measurable success outcome before proposing a layout.

## Design procedure

1. Map each learning objective to explanation, worked example, guided practice, retrieval, feedback, and later review.
2. Reduce extraneous cognitive load: segment complex material, align explanatory words and visuals, and remove irrelevant decoration or interruption.
3. Use worked examples before independent problem solving for novice tasks; fade support as competence grows.
4. Design feedback to identify what was wrong, why, and the next recoverable action; do not equate a video watch with learning.
5. Provide captions, transcripts, keyboard access, clear progress/orientation, and alternatives for time- or media-dependent tasks.

Label each non-obvious recommendation as **Standard / requirement**, **Evidence-informed default**, or **Hypothesis to test**. Read [archetype evidence](references/archetype-evidence.md) before making research claims.

## Required outputs

- objective-to-activity sequence
- cognitive-load and split-attention audit
- practice/feedback/review specification
- accessible media and assessment checklist
- delayed-retention and transfer test plan
- Evidence-to-decision table: decision → mechanism → source → label → limitation → test metric.
- Accessibility, ethics, and recovery-path checklist.

## Guardrails

Do not use completion, streaks, or time-on-page as mastery; do not add seductive details, inaccessible media, or high-stakes grading without recovery/support.

## Related skills

Use `cognitive-ux-content`, `cognitive-ux-dashboard`, and `cognitive-ux-community`. Do not combine multiple archetypes by default; select the primary user task and add another skill only when a secondary task is independently important.
