Drawing on the information processing theory, this paper proposes a theory-based framework for instructional design. The framework identifies four cognitive processes of human learning, namely selection, organization, integration, and learning (SOIL), leading to four principles of instructional design and adaptation: clarity, association, structure, and context. To enhance effective learning, the SOIL framework starts with external media (external stimuli) by streamlining the pathways between sensory memory, working memory, and long-term memory. Next, the four design principles are used to integrate instructional design with spontaneous cognitive processes of learners, focusing on cognitive load and the interactive effects of information presented, so as to expand the flow of working memory, enhance the frequency of triggering long-term memory, increase experimentation and connections between ideas, and unlock learners’ dormant intelligence. Finally, the Preface to the Sacred Teachings of Tripitaka of the Great Tang Dynasty is used as an example to illustrate the key elements of the SOIL framework and demonstrate how teachers can guide students through the thinking process from prior knowledge to selection/organization to integration/learning, thereby systematically providing teachers with an alternative perspective on teaching and learning. |
