Area of Science:

Cognitive Science
Educational Technology
Human-Computer Interaction

Background:

Remote learning is crucial for tele-health and tele-robotics.
Understanding differences between remote and in-person learning is essential.

Purpose of the Study:

To compare performance and mental workload in remote versus in-person learning.
To analyze the evolution of these metrics over time in both modalities.

Main Methods:

Comparative study design.
Performance metrics tracking.
Mental workload assessment.

Main Results:

Both learning modalities led to decreased mental workload.
Performance was enhanced in both settings.
In-person learning showed a slower rate of performance enhancement compared to remote learning.

Conclusions:

Remote and in-person learning impact cognitive load and performance differently.
The findings have implications for designing effective remote and hybrid learning strategies.
