Purpose As online learning has become more prevalent, how learners interact with each other in those learning environments has become more salient. To develop effective levels of interaction, students must feel comfortable to express their ideas and views. For this reason, this paper aims to look at how individual students’ levels of social presence affect germane cognitive load. Germane cognitive load is the amount that students are able to construct schema and can be seen as analogous to learning. Design/methodology/approach This study looks at the results of survey data (n = 433) that investigate the relationship between social presence and germane cognitive load. The students were surveyed from the Open Cyber University of Korea in the fall semester of 2018. Findings The present study found a statistically significant positive relationship between social presence and germane cognitive load. The study found a Spearman’s correlation coefficient of 0.595. Furthermore, the sample was divided into a high, medium and low grouping of social presence. Among these groupings, the high level social presence had the highest level of germane cognitive load, and the low level social presence had the lowest level of germane cognitive load. Originality/value This result shows the importance and value of developing levels of social presence in online environments. Some research has shown relationships between student interaction and learning, but the present study looks directly at social presence and germane cognitive load. From this research, the authors can see the value of encouraging higher levels of social interaction in online learning environments.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan germane cognitive load (GCL) siswa ditinjau dari gaya belajar matematis siswa dengan metode kontekstual di smk. Jenis penelitian ini adalah kualitatif deskriptif. Subjek penelitian terdiri dari siswa yang bergaya belajar interpersonal, mastery, understanding, dan self-expressive. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa: (1) struktur skema pada siswa dengan gaya belajar interpersonal ini sesuai dengan struktur materi yang akan dipelajari, maka pada siswainterpersonal terjadi proses asimilasi (2) sebagian struktur skema pada siswa dengan gaya belajar mastery ini tidak  sesuai dengan struktur materi yang akan dipelajari, ini menyebabkan terjadinya  proses akomodasi (3) pada siswa understanding proses konstruksi pengetahuannnya di LTM dalam memahami soal kontekstual tidak bekerja dengan maksimum, hal ini disebabkan karena  modifikasi struktur kognitif yang dimilki sebelumnya. (4) dan struktur skema pada siswa self-expressive tidak sesuai antara skema lama dengan skema baru, ini menyebabkan skema lama tidak dapat menyerap skema baru sehingga pada self-expressive terjadi proses akomodasi skema.

Germane Cognitive Load

Cognitive load profile is a theory used to study the limitations of working memory in receiving and processing new information obtained by students, mental effort owned by students and student learning outcomes after learning learning that has been conveyed. This research is a qualitative descriptive study which aims to find out the cognitive load profile of students in grade VII of Sukabumi City Public Middle School on environmental pollution material which was carried out in April in the 3rd week in one of the Sukabumi City Negri Secondary Schools. This study is to describe the emergence of the cognitive load profile of students in environmental pollution material with the help of prezi application. The sample used in this study were 40 students. The instrument used in the study of 16 problem questions according to indicators developed by Marzano to describe ICL, 8 questionnaires during the delivery of environmental pollution material assisted with the Prezi application to describe the ECL and 25 multiple choice questions according to indicators developed by marzano to describe GCL. The results of the study illustrate that the cognitive load profile of Grade VII students of Sukabumi City Negri Middle School in the academic year 2019/2020 illustrates the results of instrisic cognitive load (ICL) in receiving and processing information that has a high average value of 81.25 shows the profile of cognitive load owned by low students, then the results depicted from extraneous cognitive load (ECL) in the mental effort of students obtain an average value of 65.2 it illustrates the cognitive load profile possessed by students and finally the learning outcomes By using Germane cognitive load (GCL), students get an average value of 63, which is the same as ECL, which illustrates students' cognitive load profile because of the low value of learning outcomes obtained by students. Abstrak.Teori beban kognitif merupakan teori yang digunakan untuk mempelajari keterbatasan memori kerja dalam menerima informasi baru yang diperoleh. Adapun tujuan penelitian itu sendiri yaitu untuk mendapatkan gambaran dalam mendeskripsikan munculnya beban kognitif siswa pada pembelajaran materi pencemaran lingkungan dengan berbantuan aplikasi prezi. Penelitian ini bersifat deskriptif kualintatif. Metode pengumpulan data yaitu dengan soal pilihan ganda, kuisioner dan test soal uraian.  Subjek penelitian ini yaitu siswa SMPN 06 Kota Sukabumi kelas VII ajaran 2019/2020 sebanyak 40 orang. Untuk menggambarkan instrisic cognitive load (ICL) yaitu kurang menguasai konsep siswa memperoleh hasil nilai rata-rata 81,25, usaha mental siswa untuk menggambarkan extraneous cognitive load (ECL) yaitu kurang memahami gambar atau soal dengan kuisioner siswa memperoleh nilai rata-rata 62,5 dan hasil belajar dengan menggunakan germane cognitive load (GCL) yaitu siswa dapat mengingat kembali ingatan yang telah lalu dan dapat menerapkannya dalam soal berbentuk pilihan ganda siswa memperoleh nilai rata-rata 68.

AbstractThis research investigates how learning groups affect student learning from two perspectives: first, the amount of group work students do, and second, the role that they take within the group. It is not clear from the current research how a student’s role in collaborative learning affects his/her development of critical thinking and the construction of knowledge. The present study looks into whether the positive relationships found between collaboration and germane cognitive load are affected by a learner’s role within the group. Using cognitive load theory, this study analyzed survey responses from a group of university students (n = 1399) who engaged in collaborative study groups when taking online classes in South Korea. While it was found that the amount of collaboration a student engaged in positively affected levels of germane load and that their level of contribution negatively moderated that relationship. In other words, while more group work is beneficial, students who contribute less to the group have greater gains from higher levels of collaboration than students who take a more active role.
