The document discusses cognitive views of learning, specifically the information processing model, defining learning as the process of acquiring knowledge and skills through various experiences. It covers cognitive learning theories, including social cognitive theory and cognitive behavioral theory, and distinguishes between types of knowledge such as declarative, procedural, and conditional. Additionally, it explains the processes of sensory memory, working memory, and long-term memory, as well as the concept of metacognition and its three essential skills: planning, monitoring, and evaluation.

2. COGNITIVE:
relating to cognition; concerned with the
act or process of knowing, perceiving, etc
Learning:
the activity or process of gaining
knowledge or skill by studying, practicing,
being taught, or experiencing something :
the activity of someone who learns. :
knowledge or skill gained from learning

3. Knowledge is a familiarity, awareness,
or understanding of someone or
something, such as facts, information,
descriptions, or skills, which is acquired
through experience or education by
perceiving, discovering, or learning.

4. Cognitive view of learning:
Using Thinking to Learn. The Cognitive
Learning Theory explains why the brain is the
most incredible network of information
processing and interpretation in the body as we
learn things. This theory can be divided into two
specific theories: the Social Cognitive Theory
(SCT), and the Cognitive Behavioral Theory
(CBT).

5. cognitive learning:
1. learning that is concerned with
acquisition of problem-solving abilities
and with intelligence and conscious
thought.
2. A theory that defines learning as a
behavioral change based on the
acquisition of information about the
environment.

6. Kinds of knowledge
General
Domain specific
Declarative
Procedural
Conditional or structural

7. Types of Knowledge
General Reading, numbers
Domain specific Periodic table
Declarative: Who,
what, where?
History dates
Names of presidents
Procedural: How? Riding a bike
Conditional: Why? Which study strategy
should I use?

8. Information Processing
Model

9. Sensory Memory
• Sensory register
• Large capacity
• Short duration (1-3
seconds)

10. Long Term Memory
• Storage takes more time & effort
• Unlimited capacity
• Unlimited duration
• Contains visual or verbal or a
combination of codes

11. Comparison of Working & Long
Term Memory
Working
Very fast input
Limited capacity
5–20 seconds duration
Contains words, images, ideas,
sentences
Immediate recovery
Long Term
Relatively slow input
Practically unlimited capacity
Practically unlimited duration
Contains networks, schemata
Retrieval depends on connections

12. Metacognition

13. Metacognitive Knowledge
3 kinds of knowledge
Declarative
Procedural
Conditional
3 essential skills
Planning
Monitoring
Evaluation
