Popis: Previous research have found evidences of both, low traditional literacy skills (e.g. reading) and low digital literacy skills (computers and Internet skills) in the population of young students with intellectual disabilities ID). The main goal of this study was to test if learning content in the Internet was enhanced or interfered by video blog presentation mode for this population. In particular, we explored the metacognitive deficit hypothesis by Ackerman & Goldsmith [1] which predicts that a) monitoring accuracy (difference between predicted and actual comprehension) will be lower in videos than in texts; b) restudy decisions will be more efficient in the text medium (i.e. higher restudy of less comprehended texts), and c) both processes will mediate the expected lower comprehension from videos. Our results showed that learning on digital mediums were highly related to metacognitive skills of participants with ID, with higher monitoring predicting higher comprehension but only when information format was more challenging (video blog with non-linguistic simplification).
