Cognitive Learning Theory
Piaget firmly believes that CHILDREN:
• think very differently than adults
• are active learners but need to be guided
properly
• Construct new knowledge as they move
through different cognitive stages
Jean Piaget

15. National Training of Trainers

• Learning should engage and expand the
experiences of learners
• Education is a social process
• Schools should be viewed as an extension
of society and students should play an
active role in it, working cooperatively with
each other
• Students learn by doing and should be
allowed to construct, create, and actively
inquire
John Dewey

• Social Cognition – learning took place within
the context of a child’s social development and
culture
• Scaffolding – Discovering the level of each
child’s cognitive/ social development, and build
or construct their learning experiences from that
point
• Schemata – an organized way of creating or
providing a cognitive mental framework for
understanding and remembering information

The main activity in a constructivist
classroom is solving problems. Students
use inquiry methods to ask questions,
investigate a topic, and use a variety of
resources to find solutions and answers. As
students explore the topic, they draw
conclusions, and, as exploration continues,
they revisit those conclusions. Exploration
of questions leads to more questions.
INQUIRY-BASED

19. National Training of Trainers

• Students control their own learning process,
and they lead the way by reflecting on their
experiences. This process makes them experts
of their own learning. The teacher helps
create situations where the students feel safe
questioning and reflecting on their own
processes, either privately or in group
discussions. The teacher should also create
activities that lead the student to reflect on
his or her prior knowledge and experiences.
Talking about what was learned and how it
was learned is really important.
REFLECTIVE

20. National Training of Trainers
for Grade 11 Teachers
20
• The constructivist classroom relies heavily on
collaboration among students. There are
many reasons why collaboration contributes
to learning. The main reason it is used so
much in constructivism is that students learn
about learning not only from themselves, but
also from their peers. When students review
and reflect on their learning processes
together, they can pick up strategies and
methods from one another.
COLLABORATIVE

21. National Training of Trainers

• Integrative learning is linked to the classical
tradition of educating the "whole" person:
encouraging "breadth of outlook, a capacity to
see connections and hence an ability to make
fundamental decisions and judgments"
(Rothblatt 1993:28).
INTEGRATIVE

22. National Training of Trainers
for Grade 11 Teachers
22
• Integrative learning requires the teaching of
intentional learning (taking a deliberative and
reflexive stance towards knowledge
acquisition): taking into account different
dimensions of a problem, seeing it from
different perspectives, and making conceptual
links among the dimensions and perspectives .
INTEGRATIVE

23. National Training of Trainers
for Grade 11 Teachers
23
• Integrative learning leads students to synthesize
learning from a wide array of sources, learn from
experience, and make significant and productive
connections between theory and practice. This
approach to teaching and learning is necessary in
today's world where technology and globalization
transform knowledge practices in all disciplines
and professions: disciplines are now less bounded,
with new areas of scientific knowledge emerging
on the borders of old ones, and with a significant
exchange of concepts, methods, and subject
matter between the humanities, the social sciences,
and the arts.

APPROACHES

25. National Training of Trainers
for Grade 11 Teachers
25
• A learning approach in which the
educator uses strategically placed
prompts, cues, questions, direct
explanations, and modeling
to guide student thinking and
facilitate an increased
responsibility for the completion
of a task (Fisher & Frey, 2010).
Guided Instruction

26. National Training of Trainers
for Grade 11 Teachers
26
• An educational approach associated with problem-
based learning in which the student learns through
investigating issues or scenarios (Hakverdi-Can &
Sonmez, 2012). In this approach, students pose
and answer questions individually and/or
collaboratively in order to draw conclusions
regarding the specific issues or scenarios
(Hakverdi-Can & Sonmez, 2012). Effective essential
questions include student thought and research,
connect to student's reality and can be solved in
different ways (Crane, 2009). There are no incorrect
answers to essential questions, rather answers
reveal student understanding (Crane, 2009).
Inquiry-Based Learning

27. National Training of Trainers
for Grade 11 Teachers
27
• An educational approach associated with
problem-based learning in which the
educator introduces an ‘anchor’ or theme
in which students will be able to explore
(Kariuki & Duran, 2004). The ‘anchor’ acts
as a focal point for the entire task, allowing
students to identify, define, and explore
problems while exploring the topic from a
variety of different perspectives (Kariuki &
Duran, 2004).
Anchored Instruction

28. National Training of Trainers
for Grade 11 Teachers
28
• A structured educational approach which
consists of large and small group
discussions (Schmidt & Loyens, 2007).
Problem-based learning begins with an
educator presenting a series of carefully
constructed problems or issues to small
groups of students (Schmidt & Loyens,
2007). The problems or issues typically
pertain to phenomena or events to which
students possess limited prior knowledge
(Schmidt & Loyens, 2007).

“As long as there were people
asking each other questions,
we have had constructivist
classrooms. Constructivism, the
study of learning is about how
we all make sense of the world.
