Enhancing Adult Learning Using a Mobile Micro-Learning Platform With Integrated Nudging Interventions: A Design-Based Research Approach

Associate Professor Oh Lih Bin, National University of Singapore

The proposal seeks to provide insights into the design of educational technologies that can trigger automatic cognitive processes for adult learners.

Following this, integrated nudging interventions will be designed based on cognitive load theory and nudge theory. Next, the study will validate the effects of tailoring nudging interventions to adult learner archetypes and also assess the impact of the platform on learning outcomes.
