Q

Take Note:

A

intelligence involves both biological and
psychological components, reflecting an individual’s inherent capacity to process and understand information. However, the expression of this intelligence is shaped by cultural context, meaning that different cultures may activate and value different types of intelligence based on their unique needs and values.

Q

According to this theory, individuals possess different kinds of intellectual strengths, and each person has a unique combination of these intelligences that influence how they learn, think, and solve problems. Thus, a person can be strong or weak in any of the intelligences, regardless of his or her ability in the other domains.

Take Note:

A

Synergogy is derived from two Greek words: synergos (“working together”)
and agougus (“leader of”), which has come to mean “teacher.” Synergogy thus refers to “working together for shared teaching.”

A

Synergogy

40
Q

improves both the traditional classroom model (pedagogy) in which students are often passive and unmotivated, and on the other group discussion approach (andragogy), which lacks focus and direction that is not suitable for teaching large amounts of factual knowledge.

A

Synergogy

41
Q

is the traditional classroom approach where an expert instructor delivers lectures, assigns tasks, and evaluates students’ performance. In this model, students tend to passively receive information, which can lead to a lack of motivation, disengagement, and even resistance.

A

A

Andrological Methods

44
Q

Take Note:

A

Synergogy relies on teamwork, rather than individual group work, to enhance
learner’s involvement and participation. Members of a group can learn from one
another, but not every group is supportive of socially constructive learning. A learning team on the other hand is a group that has explicit goals and objectives, tasks, procedures, and measured operational outcomes of effectiveness.

45
Q

Take Note:

A

Synergogy builds on the best features of pedagogy and andragogy while avoiding the limitations associated with each. It does so by enabling learners to apply codified knowledge under conditions that arouse their involvement and commitment.

46
Q

is a format that structures the process of learning by providing a framework of orderly steps for acquiring knowledge, attitudes and skills. The design is presented through learning instruments, tactical instructions that enable the learner to learn without a teacher; such as instruments include a variety of materials: true-false, or multiple choice test, case studies, text material, and evaluation procedures.

47
Q

Three Major Forms of Learning

A

the acquisition of knowledge, the enhancement of attitudes, and development of skills.

48
Q

comprises facts, principles, theorems, and propositions.

A

Knowledge

49
Q

are patterns of individual responses that reflect values, judgement, and feelings.

A

Attitudes

50
Q

concern the ability to perform some set of operations in a competent manner.

A

Skills

51
Q

In this approach, each learner evaluates their own knowledge before engaging in team discussions. Initially, they complete a pre-study review of the material, answering a set of true-false or multiple-choice questions. Afterward, the team collaborates to share information and reach a consensus on the correct answers. Objective scoring during general sessions allows team members to review their individual performance.

A

The Effectiveness Design (TED)

52
Q

A key aspect of this design is the emphasis on mutual responsibility within the team. This method is particularly effective for presenting content that involves learning facts and data, as well as deducing principles or implications. The learners’ interest is further driven by their natural curiosity about different perspectives and reasoning processes of their peers.

A

The Effectiveness Design (TED)

53
Q

Participants are responsible for learning assigned portion of the subject matter and teaching it to others. One’s each other’s part is merged with the others; the entire body of knowledge is learned to all. This means that the learning design provides a structure by which the parts can be put together so that the whole picture is visible and each participants understands it. (similar in the jigsaw puzzle).

A

Team Member Teaching Design (TMTD)

54
Q

This design requires that the subject matter must be subdivided and a part assigned as pre study to each member. When the team assembles, the members with the first part teaches the materials to others. In turn, others will also share their parts to the team. Their answers serve as a rationale for each item and helps learners understand questions each may have missed. This design stimulates learners to study and become experts on their assigned parts. Like the TED, TMTD is most useful for aiding the learners to acquire information, facts, and data.

A

Team Member Teaching Design (TMTD)

55
Q

This learning design is a useful approach for which learners are to acquire practical skills. This design is intended to help learners exercise individual responsibility for their team members’ skill development. It is intended to help learners acquire and perfect skills in colleague teams that develop criteria for performance and use these criteria for performance and use these criteria to
critique one another’s skills in the absence of an authority or expert.

A

Performance Judging Design (PJD)

56
Q

Members develop the effectiveness criteria that apply in performing a particular skill. These criteria enable learners to judge the quality of their own performance. When learners have an explicit understanding of the criteria, they can also monitor their performance outside the learning situation. Then, each produces evidence and compare the levels achieved by others which can be judged by learners themselves. Individuals receive colleague critiques of their product and performance to reach a level of effectiveness that satisfies the criteria.

A

Performance Judging Design (PJD)

57
Q

People’s attitudes profoundly influence their effectiveness as well as personal satisfaction, and are significant aspect of social emotional learning. It is helpful for people to freely explore their attitudes, to gain insight and enlightened self- control, and to discover how their attitudes may limit or distort the scope or quality of their performance. It is used to enable learners to study and articulate their own attitudes.

A

Clarifying Attitude Design (CAD)

58
Q

Initially, learners assess their attitudes using tools like sentence-completion items or bipolar attitude scales. They then come together to identify and discuss the most reasonable position on the attitude scale based on available information and current circumstances. After the discussion, each learner revisits the initial assessment to see if their attitudes have changed. During the critique phase, learners evaluate the implications of any attitude changes and develop generalizations about how these changes affect their performance. This process allows learners to determine whether their attitudes are grounded in factual evidence, data, and logic. They may also become aware of previously unrecognized attitudes or discover alternative perspectives they had not considered.

A

The Learning Style Inventory was developed by

A

Rita Durn, Kenneth Dunn
and Gary Price.

60
Q

was initially tasked with creating modified, programmed methods of learning for students from disadvantaged educational backgrounds. She noted that while some of the chosen techniques worked incredibly well with certain pupils, not all of the students responded to them in the same way.

Q

encompass various biological and experiential factors that influence a person’s ability to concentrate, with each aspect contributing uniquely while functioning as a whole. It extends beyond just how a student best retains challenging or unfamiliar information through hearing, seeing, reading, writing, illustrating, speaking, or hands-on experiences.

A

Learning Styles

62
Q

is only one component of the broader concept of learning style.

A

Perceptual preference

63
Q

Take Note:

A

It is also more than whether a person processes information sequentially or analytically rather than in a holistic, simultaneous, global fashion; information-processing style is just one component of style. It is important to recognize not only individual behaviors, but to explore and examine the whole of each person’s inclinations toward learning

Q

impact the social preferences of the learning environment. Is the student an independent or social learner? Do they
prefer to learn in pairs with peers or even in small groups? Students may
even enjoy working in a variety of these options.

A

sociological

69
Q

concerns how the student physically engages their learning environment. What are their perceptual preferences (visual, audio, kinesthetic, read/write)? What time of the day are they most effective as learners? Do they need to be moving to learn? Hands-on learner? Or maybe they are a passive learner who simply prefers to observe.

A

Physiological

70
Q

How the learner processes and responds to information and ideas is
related to the psychological influences? Are they detail oriented? Global
oriented? Reflective?

A

psychological

71
Q

An analytic student learns best when information is presented in a step-
by-step, sequential manner that gradually leads to understanding. In contrast, global students prefer to grasp the overall concept first, focusing
on details afterward, or learn more easily through stories and visual
examples.

A

psychological

72
Q

Some students may need frequent movement or breaks to stay focused, while others can sit for long periods without distraction. others may be more
productive during specific times of the day.

A

76
Q

Take Note:

A

The Learning Style Inventory, 1978 edition, contains 104 questions which
concern each of the learning style areas presented. The student’s responses to these questions tend to reveal highly personalized preferences that, when identified as relevant factors and combined, represent the way in which a student prefers to study.
