LEARNING THEORIES AND LAW :<3:
CONSTRUCTIVISM :warning:
Which factors influence learning?
When a learner understands how to apply knowledge in different contexts, then transfer has occurred. Understanding is seen as being composed of a knowledge base in the form of rules, concepts, and discriminations. Prior knowledge is used to establish boundary constraints for identifying the similarities and differences of novel information. Not only must the knowledge itself be stored in memory but the uses of that knowledge as well.
What types of learning are best explained by the theory?
The constructivist does not accept the assumption that types of learning can be identified independent of the content and the context of learning. Constructivists believe that it is impossible to isolate units of information or divide up knowledge domains according to a hierarchical analysis of relationships. Although the emphasis on performance and instruction has proven effective in teaching basic skills in relatively structured knowledge domains, much of what needs to be learned involves advanced knowledge in ill-structured domains.
How does learning occur?
Constructivism is a theory that equates learning with creating meaning from experience
BEHAVIORISM :pencil2:
Which factors influence learning?
learner and environmental factors are considered important by behaviorists, environmental conditions receive the greatest emphasis. Behaviorists assess the learners to determine at what point to begin instruction as well as to determine which reinforcers are most effective for a particular student.
What types of learning are best explained by the theory?
You can watch TV as soon as you are done You homework or student who arrive late will receive detention
How does learning occur?
A behabvior will only occur if given the right environment or antecedent. The behavior is more or less likely to reoccur based on the reinforcements or consequences and pusnishments.
COGNITIVISM :star:
Which factors influence learning?
emphasizes the role that environmental conditions play in facilitating learning. Instructional explanations, demonstrations, illustrative examples and matched non-examples are all considered to be instrumental in guiding student learning. Similarly, emphasis is placed on the role of practice with corrective feedback.
What types of learning are best explained by the theory?
Trainees attending a workshop on effective management skills would be presented with information that is “sized” and “chunked” in such a way that they can assimilate and/or accommodate the new information as quickly and as easily as possible. Behaviorists would focus on the design of the environment to optimize that transfer, while cognitivists would stress efficient processing strategies.
How does learning occur?
Instruction should be organized, sequenced and presented in a manner that is understandable and meaningful to the learner. Cognitivsm emphasizes retention and recall through the use of quality teaching practices.
