  • Selfevaluation and selfcontrol of the activities.

Automaticity is practice, something that we can learn by experience, when we repeat and practice the activity. For example, daily activities like speak, walk, etc.

Cognitive load is the excessive quantity of information that the students receive. With this type of method, the brain work a lot and it is difficult to process all of the information for a better result.
