Final Study Guide Flashcards
Active learners are? Like ? Do not like?
Retain and apply information if they can do something with it, discuss it, or explain to others.
Like: group work
Do not like: sitting in lectures
Reflective learners ? Like?
Likes to think about it first; work alone; better at sitting in lectures then active learners
Visual learners ?
Remember what they see in pictures, diagrams, films, & demonstrations.
-Should try and find pictures, movies, etc
Most learners are what type of learners?
Visual
Verbal learners ?
Remember what they hear or read
-Should outline and re-write what they need to know, or have study groups to explain material to them
You are helping a patient learn to use a sock aid. He has had difficulty remembering the technique. Today he successfully uses the device four out of five times. You praise him for remembering and performing that important skill. In praising him, which theory of learning are you are employing?
Behviorism by E.L thorndike adn B.F Skinner
-Behaviors that are rewarded positively will reoccur
(Operant conditioning )
You provided an in-service on therapeutic exercise to a “lay audience”. In so doing you learned within the context of actively doing a presentation and subsequently thinking about it. This experience is most consistent with which learning theory?
Or Gastalt problem solving
-learning begins with experience, reflection on that experience and problem solving.
-It emphasizes the role of perception adn interpretation in finding solutions.
The solution to a problem depends on perceiving new relationships among its elements.
People organize and experience the world in meaningful contexts.
Info must make sense to be learned
Reflection in action
requires 2 simultaneous actions
- attend to the task
- continually question,observe, assess & adjust
Reflection on action
Occurs “after” the fact
-What happened? What did you miss?
First you learned to name the shoulder muscles, then to locate them on a model, then to describe their action, then to differentiate the action of the supraspinatus and the deltoid muscles. Then you designed an appropriate exercise program on paper. Which domain of learning does this best represent?
Cognitive Domain
Cognitive Domain is the development of what 3 things?
Knowledge
Language based information
Concepts to learned
The 6 levels of cognitive domain ? (Each level build on the preceding level)
Knowledge Comprehension Application Analysis Synthesis Evaluation
Learning to position a patient to facilitate treatment and comfort, and learning to perform pulsed ultrasound are examples of which domain of learning?
Psychomotor domain
Psychomotor domain is the development of ?
Motor skills
7 levels of psychomotor ?
Perception Set Guided response Mechanism Complex overt response Adaptation Origination
What are the key concepts inherent to andragogy ?
The art and science of helping adults learn
- Learner centered
- Need to know about learner situation
- Bring a concept of self to the learning situation
- Bring experience to the learning situation
- Are ready to learn
- Are motivated to learn
After hearing a lecture about therapeutic ultrasound, its parameters, indications, and contraindications, the class moved into the lab room where the ultrasound machines were set up in order to practice.
Several students immediately turned the ultrasound units on and began practicing the skill of applying therapeutic ultrasound to a classmate. According to the Index of Learning Styles, these students are most likely what type of learners?
Active learners: understand and retains information best by discussing, applying or explaining it. Enjoys group work
After hearing a lecture about therapeutic ultrasound, its parameters, indications, and contraindications, the class moved into the lab room where the ultrasound machines were set up in order to practice
After several minutes, the students who had originally sat back and watched their classmates practice the application of ultrasound began to become more involved in the lab activity. According to Kolb’s Learning Style Inventory, these students are most likely what type of learners?
Assimiltors
According to Donald Schon’s work, we are required to function in clinical practice on two levels: 1. “attending” to the interaction with our patient and 2. “continually questioning”, observing and assessing our thoughts and actions during the session. What type of reflection is this called?
Reflection in action
What are some of the characteristics of a good student in a clinical practice setting?
? Good communication, acculurtation, manage CI’s expectation, reflection, critical analysis, set goals and objectives
You are a CI who is orienting your new SPT to your clinical setting. After explaining the process for inputting an initial assessment into the electronic medical record, you ask him for feedback regarding what he learned. He says: “I think I’d understand it better if I had the chance to watch you input the information one time.” Which is his preferred learning style?
Visual learner
