The influence and application of learning theories and styles upon learning posture management (PM) within Occupational Therapy (OT)
Learning theories
Humanism (Maslow, 1987)
Meeting physical needs: room temperature and refreshment breaks (Maslow,1987)
Aligned with Andragogy as both regard intrinsic motivation to guide SDL (Maslow, 1987; Knowles, 1971)
-
Inducing psychological safety by providing session structure, debriefing, instilling confidence to raise questions (Jeng, 2023).

-
Philosophies
of learning
Andragogy
(Knowles 1971)
-
-
Experience
Values learners' previous experience (Knowles et al., 2020)
-
Focus
Student-centred
Promotes student-directed learning (SDL) (Knowles et al., 2020)
Pedagogy
(Dewey 1933)
Objective-based learning
Traditionally but not exclusively applied
to children (Goldhawk, 2023)
Aimed at acquiring subject matter to pass session, like Manual Handling training
-
Experience
Not concerned by learner's experience (Bates, 2023)
-
Focus
Teacher-centred
Too focused upon teacher delivering pre-ordained knowledge (Bates, 2023)
Can be balanced when the next stage is underpinned by pragmatism (Bates, 2023).
Honey & Mumford (1982)
Influenced by Kolb's theory (1976) but aimed to define categorisation of preferences (Honey & Mumford, 1982)
-
Theorist
Structured learning, set objectives
-
Pragmatist
Case-based learning Concept mapping (Mohammedi et al., 2019)
-
-
Fleming & Mills (1992)
Visual
75% of knowledge is acquired through visual materials (Laird, 1985)
Illustrations of anatomy (Pope, 1997)
Concept-mapping key benefits of PM
(Mohammedi et al., 2019)
Aural
90% of learning heard in an activity is retained (Dale, 1954)
-
PBL group discussion of PM issues and practices (Mohanna et al., 2023)
Read-Write
Incorporated into 'visual' into recent interpretations (Rosydiah et al., 2017)
-
Kinaesthetic
Simulating positions in gamification (Wang et al., 2024)
Relates to sensory-cognitive functions similarly to LDOT role (Dantas & Cunha, 2020)
Kolb (1976)
Regarded as the foundational learning style inventory
(Mohanna et al., 2023)
Based upon Kolb's Learning Cycle (1984) in progressing Dewey's (1933) approach to emphasise the integration of experience, reflection, theory and practice
-
-
-
-
Behaviourism
(Skinner, 1953)
Conducive to simulation-based learning (SBL) for repetition of PM skills (Spencer et al., 2019)
-
-
Emphasises extrinsic rewards and incentives aligning with Pedagogy's motivation to learn (Bastable, 2023)
Limitations in developing clinical rationale (Bastable, 2023)
Reactive learning from conditioning and reinforcement (Skinner, 1953)
-
Limited in development of practical and interpersonal skills (Helyer et al., 2021)
