Cognitive ToolsMartin HomikThe document provides an overview of cognitive tools for educational technologies, including their goals, functions, and examples. It discusses how cognitive tools can support learning by reducing cognitive load and helping students externalize and visualize knowledge. Key tools discussed include learning diaries, concept mapping, and simulations. The document emphasizes that cognitive tools should follow constructivist learning theories in providing self-guided, discovery-based learning.
