This document compares and contrasts several models of learning: - Dale's Cone of Experience and Bruner's three-tiered model both arrange bands of experience by abstraction rather than difficulty and involve different sensory aids. Dale's focuses on how concrete experiences provide meaning to abstract theories. - Both Dale's Cone and Bruner's model see experience as essential to learning and involve moving from concrete to abstract representations. Bruner's model is more generalized. - Gagne's nine instructional materials and Thomas' PPPF model are both applied to all aspects of human learning and education. Gagne's covers all learning domains while Thomas' focuses on teaching preparation and objectives.

Similarities
Dale’s Cone of Experience and
Bruner’s three-tiered model of
learning
Both have presents
bands of experience
arranged according to
degree of abstraction
and not degree of
difficulty.
Both involve
different kind of
sensory aids.
Differences
 Dale’s deals with specificity of
experiences that acquire learning
processes.
 Demonstrates how concrete
experiences give meaning to abstract
theories.
 Useful way of thinking about visual
materials and their application in the
classroom
Dale’s Cone of Experience
Bruner’s three-tiered model of
learning
Both experience is
essential to the
learning process.
 Explicated how learners move
from enactive representations
through iconic
representations to symbolic
representations in the
learning process.
 3 models are more
generalized than dale’s cone
of experience
 process that makes possible
the establishment of
knowledge
Both have the relationship between how
information is presented in instruction and the
outcomes for learners.

2. Similarities
Gagne’s nine instructional
materials & Thomas PPPF
Both involved in all aspects
of human learning.
Usage for human
inventions for teachers
preparation in teaching
Both applied in scientific
findings in our method,
process or procedure of
working in the field of
education in order to
effect learning.
Differences
Gagne’s nine instructional
materials
 Gagne's theoretical framework
covers all aspects of learning, the
focus of the theory is on
intellectual skills.
 been applied to the design of
instruction in all domains
 five major categories of learning:
verbal information, intellectual
skills, cognitive strategies, motor
skills and attitudes.
 PPPF use on the field of teaching
Prepare yourself,prepare your
student,present the material and
follow up
 Applied in the field of teaching
 Getting the primary objectives in
field demonstration
Thomas PPPF
Both uses instructional
materials in the field of
teaching
