Chp 11 Flashcards
Learning is manifested through change behavior according to what is acceptable, consistent with the nursing discipline, and which learning is applied for. Results or outcomes of behavioral change, such as concepts, skills and attitudes, are described rather than the ongoing process of learning (Davis: 2006).
Learning occurs from the point of view of the end-result or outcome of teaching
Emphasis of the learning process is on the dynamics of learning, the sequence and the pattern of change of behavior in the individual and group of learners.
The learning process determines the level of interest and understanding of the different aspects of the learning situation which causes the learner to react, organize and pattern her behavior during a learning activity
Learning as a process is more concerned with what happens during the course of learning than in the end-results of learning
Function emphasizes certain critical aspects of learning, such as motivation, retention, transfer and other ongoing activities involved in the learning process. The learner gets involved in a series of mental activities that will work out to grasp comprehensively all the concepts taught. In this aspect, the learner undergoes the process of unlearning, relearning, and learning
Learning is also described as a function
