classroom time is dedicated to hands-on activities and interactive, personalized
learning, leading to deeper understanding. Students use class time to apply the theory
and concepts discussed in the videos, and to utilize techniques including group
problem-solving and team building games, simulations, case study reviews, and group
discussions.

are instructional scenarios where the learner is placed in a “world”
defined by the teacher. They represent a reality within which students interact. The
teacher controls the parameters of this “world” and uses it to achieve the desired

34
Q

APPROACH ACCDNG TO NATURE OF LEARNING

A

discovery learning

35
Q

APPROACH- NATURE OF LEARNING
- Involves the learning of specific concepts, the nature of concepts, and the development of logical reasoning & critical thinking.

A

CONCEPTUAL LEARNING

36
Q

APPROACH - NATURE OF LEANRING
- Treats all writing as a creative act which requires time and positive feedback to be done well. In process writing, the teacher moves away from being someone who sets students a writing topic and receives the finished product for correction without any intervention in the writing process itself.

A

PROCESS WRITING

37
Q

APPROACH - NATURE OF LEARNING
This approach lends itself smoothly to a unified teaching-learning concept of education. The information handler, being a teacher, a student, or another educational environment, is at the center of this educational model. The main inherent characteristics of this model are extreme flexibility, integration, ease of interaction, and being evolutional.

A

unified teaching

38
Q

APPROACH - NATURE OFLEARNING
- An approach which provides students with an
abundance of projects, activities, and instructional
designs that allow them to make decisions and
solve problems.
-Through this approach students get a sense that
learning is much more than the commission of
facts to memory. Rather, it is what children do with
that knowledge that determines its impact on their
attitudes and aptitudes.

  8. Known to unknown: starts what knowledge they have up to the knowledge they don’t have
  9. Setting an example
  10. Good human relations: build rapporting to the communities people

Q

knowles 5 assumptions of adult learners

A

Self-Concept
► As a person matures his/her self concept moves from one of being a dependent personality toward one of being a self-directed human being.
Adult Learner Experience
► As a person matures he/she accumulates a growing reservoir of experience that becomes an increasing resource for learning.
Readiness to Learn
► As a person matures his/her readiness to learn becomes oriented increasingly to the developmental tasks of his/her social roles
Orientation to Learning
► As a person matures his/her time perspective changes from one of postponed application of knowledge to immediacy of application. As a result his/her orientation toward learning shifts from one of subject- centeredness to one of problem centeredness.
Motivation to Learn
► As a person matures the motivation to learn is internal

major learning theories

A

– Behaviorist Theories
– Cognitive Theories
– Social Learning Theories

74
Q

Earliest formal theories for learning, used for children
* Focused on studying thoughts and feelings, fears and phobia
* Theorists:
1. John Watson
- Defined behavior as a muscle movement
- began studying behaviour because it is more objective.
2. Watson and Guthrie
- Contiguity theory
- Believed that even a skill such as walking is learned through a series of conditioned responses.
3. Thorndike and Skinner
- reinforcement theory
- proposed that stimulus-response bonds are strengthened by reinforcements such as reward or punishment

A

BEHAVIORIST THEORY

75
Q

 is a study of how our brains work in the process of perceiving, thinking, remembering and learning

A

cognitive science

76
Q

 sometimes used to describe a subset of this field of study.
 Explains the way that information is handled once it enters the sensed and how it is organized and stored.

A

INFORMATION PROCESSING

77
Q

cognitive learning theorists

A
  1. Breur
    – Learning is a process whereby the novice becomes expert
  2. Feden, 1994
    – An active process which the learner constructs meaning based
    on prior knowledge and view of the world
  3. Ausubel, 1963
    – Developed earliest model of cognitive learning
    – The Subsumption Theory of Meaningful Verbal Learning
    – New information is subsumed into existing thought and memory
    structures
    – Meaningful learning is thought to occur only if existing cognitive
    structures are organized and differentiated.
    – Repetition of meaningful material and its use in various contexts
    would enhance the retention of the material
  4. Rumelhart, 1980
    – Concept of schema or schemata
    – “ all knowledge is packaged into units. These units are schemata.”
    Schemata- knowledge structures that store concepts, and the knowledge
    of how to use them in memory.
78
Q

3 Kinds of Learning Based on Schema Theory

A

a. Accretion
– The learning of facts
– New information is added to existing schemata
– No changes are made to existing knowledge
b. Tuning (schema evolution)
– Existing schema evolve or refined throughout the lifespan as
new situations and issues are encountered
c. Restructuring (schema creation)
– Development if new schemata by copying an old schema and
adding new elements that are different to create a new
schema

79
Q

OTHER THEORIES/MODELS OF INFO PROCESSES

A
  1. Level of Processing Theory
    – Information is processed sequentially, from perception to
    attention- to labelling and meaning
  2. The Parallel Distributing Model
    – Information is processed by different parts of the memory
    system simultaneously rather than sequential
  3. Connectionistic Model
    – The information is stored in any places throughout the brain,
    forming network of connections
  4. Stage Theory of Information Processing
    – Relates to memory activity
    – Information is both processed and stored in 3 stages:
    Sensory, Short-Term Memory and Long-Term Memory
80
Q
  • Albert Bandura (1977)
  • Observational Learning Theory
  • Explains that behaviour is the result of an interaction among the person (characteristics, personality etc.) to the environment (physical, social etc) and the behaviour itself.
  • People learn as they are in constant interaction with their environment
  • Key components:
    a. Modelling
    b. Attentional processes
    c. Retention Processes
    d. Motivation
A

social learning theory

81
Q

KEY COMPONENTS OF SOCIAL LEARNING THEORY

A

a. Modelling
– Learning occurs as a result of observing other
people’s behavior and its consequences
b. Attentional Processes
– This determines which modelled behavior will be
learned
c. Retention Processes
– Refer to the ability to retain modelled behaviors in
permanent memory
d. Motivation
– Motivation through valued outcomes (rewards)
rather punishing outcomes
– Perceived reward is a good motivator
