Germane load refers to the cognitive load associated with the processing and understanding of information that is relevant and essential to learning a specific task or concept. It enhances learning by facilitating the integration of new information with prior knowledge, thereby promoting deeper understanding and retention. Unlike intrinsic load (related to the complexity of the material) and extraneous load (unrelated distractions), germane load is beneficial and contributes positively to the learning process. Effective instructional design aims to maximize germane load while minimizing extraneous load.
