Keywords:
nano-learning, micro-learning, cognitive load, digital education, higher education, personalized learning, Uzbekistan.Abstract
The article examines the conceptual foundations of nano-learning as an innovative approach to organizing the educational process. It analyzes the theoretical prerequisites of nano-learning, its relationship with J. Sweller’s cognitive load theory, and contemporary neurophysiological research. A comparative analysis of nano-learning and micro-learning is presented, highlighting their similarities and differences.
