Theoretical physicists use machine-learning algorithms to speed up difficult calculations and eliminate untenable theories—but could they transform what it means to make discoveries? Theoretical ...

Memory is not a recording device. It doesn't play back events like a video camera would. Instead, it's a remarkably active, ...

Cognitive Load Theory (CLT) explains how learning is influenced by the limited capacity of working memory. By understanding and managing different types of cognitive load, faculty can design more ...
