Research Summary
Dr. Fiorella studies the cognitive science of student learning and its implications for instruction. One line of research examines the benefits and boundary conditions of generative learning activities, such as explaining and drawing. A second line focuses on applying cognitive principles to the design of multimedia learning environments, including instructional videos. He also investigates how habits shape student self-regulation, learning, and well-being.
