Focusing is a kind of instructional [[treatment]] that involves guiding or attracting students attention to target [[knowledge components]] or [[features]] of those knowledge components (see [[feature focusing]]).

Focusing my enhance robust learning through different learning processes:

* Focusing student attention on key [[knowledge components]] may also result in students spending more time during a [[learning events|learning event]] on a particular [[knowledge component]] and thus increase its [[strength]].

* Focusing student attention on relevant [[features]] of knowledge components (and perhaps away from irrelevant features) may help students distinguish the relevant from irrelevant features for retrieving and using knowledge components correctly and with understanding. (See [[feature focusing]]).
