relating to the mental
process involved in knowing,
learning, and understanding
things.
Cognitive
an awareness
of one’s thought processes
and an understanding of the
patterns behind them.
Metacognition
Cognitive factors in learning involve various
cognitive
components
like
attention,
perception,
executive
function,
and
reasoning.
aspects include
emotions related to a specific situation or
interest and motivation related to a task or
subject matter.
affective-motivational
Learner-Centered Psychological Principles we’re put by
American
Psychological Association.
metacognitive factors involve
monitoring and evaluation
- The learning of complicated subject
matter is most effective when it is an
intentional process of constructing meaning
from information and experience.
Nature of the learning process
The successful learner, overtime and with
support of instructional guidance can create
meaningful, coherent representations of
knowledge.
Goals of the learning process
The successful learner can link new
information with existing knowledge in
meaningful ways
Construction of knowledge
The successful learner can create and use a
repertoire of thinking and reasoning
strategies to achieve complex learning goals
Strategic Thinking
emotions related to a specific situation or
interest and motivation related to a task or
subject matter. Therefore, those can be the
value connected or assigned to a subject or
task, the experienced enjoyment, or the
intrinsic motivation to engage in this task or
situation.
affective-motivational
- What and how much is learned is influenced by the
learner’s motivation. Motivation to learn, in turn, is
influenced by the individual’s emotional states,
beliefs, interestsand goals, and habits of thinking.
Motivational and emotional influences on learning
Learning is influenced by environmental
factors,including culture, technology and
instructional practices
Context of learning
Higher order strategies for selecting and
monitoring mental operations facilitate
creative and critical thinking.
Thinking about thinking
The learner’s creativity, higher order thinking, and
natural curiosity all contribute to motivation to learn.
Intrinsic motivation is stimulated by tasks of optimal
novelty and difficulty, relevant to personal interests
and providing for personal choice
Intrinsic motivation to learn
Acquisition of complex knowledge and skills requires
extended learner effort and guided practice. Without
learners’ motivation to learn, the willingness to exert
this effort is unlikely without coercion.
Effects of motivation on effort
These factors contribute to the mind’s
growth by systematically. rewarding
learners for their efforts. Emotional,
intellectual, and. physical development
are all considered developmental.
Developmental and Social Factors. -
individuals develop, there are different
opportunities and constraints for learning. Learning
is most effective when differential development
within and across physical, intellectual, emotional
and social domains is taken into account
Developmental influences on learning
Learning is influenced by social interactions,
interpersonal relations and communication with
others
Social influences on learning
Learning is influenced by social interact
more-orless
enduring
psychological
characteristics that distinguish one person
from another and thus help to define each
person’s individuality.
Individual differences
most
important kinds of individual differences
intelligence, personality traits, and
values
Learners have different strategies, approaches and
capabilities for learning that are a function of prior
experience and heredity
Individual differences in learning
Learning is most effective when differences in
learners’ linguistic, cultural and social backgrounds
are taken into account.
Learning and diversity
Setting appropriately high and challenging
standards and assessingthe learner as well as
learning progress– including diagnostic process and
outcome assessment are integral part of the learning
process.
