Jonathan also highlights insights from several articles on micro learning, including research on how adults absorb, process, and retain new information. You’ll walk away with a clearer understanding of when micro learning works, when it doesn’t, and how to design it with intention—not convenience. TLDR: Micro learning isn’t “shorter content.” Its purposeful design grounded in how adult learners process information.

In this episode of the JuvoHub Podcast, host Jonathan Saar continues his Learning Theory Series by breaking down cognitive load theory—a major framework that helps educators understand how much information learners can reasonably process at once. He explores intrinsic, extraneous, and germane load, and discusses how instructional designers can transform complex “brain dumps” from subject matter experts into learner-friendly training. Some main highlights include why clarity, structure, and real-world application matter far more than simply presenting information. Jonathan also shares questions educators should ask themselves when evaluating whether a course is overwhelming learners and how to refine material for stronger retention. Whether you design online courses, teach live classes, or guide teams, this discussion offers practical insights to improve training effectiveness. 👉 TLDR: Cognitive Load Theory teaches that simplifying, clarifying, and sequencing information leads to better learning—and “less is more” when it comes to instructional design. Key Takeaways 00:00 – Why Cognitive Load Theory Matters More Than We Realize 00:26 – Breaking Down the Three Types of Cognitive Load 01:45 – How Better Clarity Frees Up Working Memory 02:24 – Why Retention Depends on Intentional Structure 02:55 – The SME Brain Dump Problem—and What Educators Should Do Instead 04:18 – Turning Information Into Real Learning Outcomes 05:20 – Are We Making Training Too Complex? Key Questions to Ask 06:36 – Final Thoughts: Why Less Is More in Learning Design The Core Takeaway: Why Simplifying Content Strengthens Learning Cognitive Load Theory reinforces an essential principle for educators: training isn’t about delivering everything you know—it’s about designing information in a way that learners can process, connect, and retain. By reducing unnecessary complexity and focusing on clarity and application, educators create training that truly supports long-term understanding. As you move forward in your teaching or instructional design work, remember that impactful learning often comes from simplifying, not adding more. 🔗 Reliable Resources: Conitive Load Theory Science Direct

In this episode of the JuvoHub Podcast, host Jonathan Saar explores one of the most debated concepts in adult learning—learning styles and learning preferences. While research is mixed on whether tailoring content to a “style” improves retention, there is universal agreement on one point: learners are diverse, and understanding how people prefer to receive information can sharpen the way educators deliver content. This episode highlights key insights from respected sources, touches on the limitations of style-based training, and encourages educators to reflect on how a deeper understanding of learner diversity can influence instructional design. TLDR: Everyone has learning preferences, but the real value lies in using that awareness to improve how you deliver training—not in trying to tailor content to every individual style. Key Takeaways 00:00 – Why This Series Matters 00:56 – Learning Styles: What They Really Are 02:10 – The Debate That Won’t Die 03:05 – Do Learning Styles Actually Work? 04:12 – The Insight Educators Can’t Ignore 05:30 – The Challenge of Teaching Everyone 06:40 – Your Turn: Share Your Perspective 07:20 – Rethinking How We Teach Final Thoughts: Understanding Learner Diversity in Modern Education The debate around learning styles may continue, but one truth remains clear—educators benefit from understanding how learners prefer to receive information. By staying flexible, informed, and willing to adapt delivery methods, we create stronger and more accessible learning experiences. The goal isn’t to match every preference perfectly—it’s to elevate the quality, clarity, and impact of the content we share. Class Dismissed!
