Communication & Cognitive Load: Teaching Learners Who Process Differently

Sometimes better teaching means saying less.
Driving instructors communicate constantly — giving directions, explaining, questioning, prompting, correcting and providing feedback.
But what happens when our communication becomes another thing the learner has to process?
Communication & Cognitive Load explores how working memory, processing time, attention and cognitive demand can affect a learner's ability to understand and respond while simultaneously controlling a vehicle.
Learn why an instruction can be heard and understood but seemingly "disappear" seconds later, and why breaking information into smaller chunks can dramatically change a learner's performance.
Built around the 4front communication principle:
Clear enough to understand.
Structured enough to process.
Flexible enough to adapt.
Minimal enough to avoid overload.
Progressive enough to develop independence.
An excellent professional-development resource for any ADI or PDI, not just those teaching diagnosed neurodiverse learners.
