• Example-Based Learning: Integrating Cognitive and Social-Cognitive Research Perspectives (2010, background): “2008), or as an animation in which the model could be represented by an animated agent (Wouters et al. 2008), there is much more opportunity for learners to attend to irrelevant details (e.”

• A meta-analysis of the cognitive and motivational effects of serious games (2013, background): “Yet, it is important that learners verbalize their knowledge, because it enables them to integrate new knowledge with their prior knowledge, resulting in better recall and higher transfer of learning (Wouters et al., 2008).”
