cause students to remain motivated beyond the instructor’s influence and apply what they have learned on the job and in other areas of their lives
State and discuss the six laws of learning.
PIERREPRIMACY: states that the first instructional event often creates a strong, almost unshakeable, impression on the learner.INTENSITY: states that if the stimulus (experience) is real, a change in behavior (learning) is far more likely to occur.EXERCISE: stresses that practice makes permanent and perfect (when taught correctly).RECENCY: the things learned last will be best remembered.READINESS: states that people can only learn when they are physically and mentally read.EFFECT: involves the emotional reaction of the learner. Learning will be more effective when a feeling of satisfaction accompanies or is a result of the learning process.
State and discuss five ways of learning.
A TITIAssociation: comparison of past learning to new learning situations. Similar elements can be used from past experiences.Trial and error: discovery learning, learning by doing. Imitation: See and DoTransfer: applying past learning to new but somewhat similar situations. Insight: ah-ha moment
Discuss how motivation affects student learning.
Motivation often has as much or more impact than scholastic ability. Motivation often determines whether or not a student achieves course objectives.
State and discuss the types of sensory learners.
VAKVisual - Visual aids, graphics and VAP. 75% of basic learningAuditory - HearingKinesthetic - blend of all senses with psychomotor and perceptual skills
State and discuss the four basic learning styles.
ARC AAbstract conceptualization: prefer a theory based, analytical approach Reflective observation: observe and reflect. Impartial observer Concrete experience: do it themselves. Rely heavily on their own feelings and personal judgments.Active experimentation: step by step, trial and error. Abstract = 20% retainedAbstract and reflective = 50% retainedAbstract, reflective, and concrete = 70% retainedAbstract, reflective, concrete, and active = 90% retained
Discuss the barriers to effective communication.
LOFELack of common core experience: determine level before teachingOveruse of abstractionisms: Concepts, ideas, or words that are not directly related to the subject. Use correct terms.FearEnvironmental Factors: noises and temperature
