Editor's Notes

  1. Welcome to the workshop on how do people learn? These lectures are part of Effective Teacher Training Course offered by Understand Quran Academy. In this workshop we will discuss the learning patterns and theories. They explain how people learn and acquire knowledge, skills, and attitudes.
  2. Quiz 1: What are the outcomes of the session “How do people learn?” Provide teachers with an understanding of the different learning styles and preferences, Identify different learning patterns Define strategies for accommodating them in instructional design. All of the above
  3. Time 8 Minutes Outcomes: What do we think? Visually, auditory, or kinesthetic. How do we store our memories? When we pull one event, all the VAK comes out. But the main point is that we pull by the thread that we are strong with. V A K. It reflects in our recollection of the drawing.
  4. The roadmap of expertise. Success comes after expertise. Expertise comes after prolonged, sustained effort on a specified task. Expertise comes after the repetition of a job many numbers of times. Success is not random and shouldn’t be considered lucky. It is a step-by-step procedure that is repeated when the situation demands it. Example: You taught great once, then the next time, you messed up. This is not a success. You spoke the truth once. That doesn’t make you truthful. Quiz What are the steps towards expertise? Unconscious Incompetence Conscious Incompetence Conscious Competence Unconscious Competence All of the above. Quiz What is the stage where more people give up? Unconscious Incompetence Conscious Incompetence Conscious Competence Unconscious Competence All of the above. Quiz Why do people give up at the third stage? They get bored. They think they are experts. 3rd stage requires effort, and people do not want to put in the effort. None of the above.
  5. Learning is the most natural and delicate process. Any disturbance or pressure will kill the learning. Therefore teachers should realize that all individuals are diverse and their needs are different along with their learning patterns.
  6. How do people learn and think? These questions have challenged thinkers and researchers. People have modeled assuming in various ways. 1. Left Brain & Right Brain: Some people are categorized as left and right brainers and give their respective characteristic behaviors. 2. People have divided our brain into four quadrants known as Hermann quadrants; each quadrant has a different type. 3. Gardner said there are seven types of intelligence and hence seven learning styles. There are many more models available. We will now focus on a simple one. What are the characteristics of the right brain? What are the characteristics of the left brain?
  7. A comprehensive view of the various learning theories and their respective areas of implementation.
  8. theories of learning are ideas about the ways students learn and retain information. These principles provide different frameworks that teachers can use to adapt to students' diverse learning styles and academic needs. Behaviorism: This theory emphasizes the role of external stimuli and environmental factors in shaping behavior. It suggests that learning occurs through the repeated association of a stimulus with a response, leading to the formation of a learned behavior. Cognitivism: This theory focuses on how individuals process information and make sense of it. It suggests that learning involves the acquisition, organization, and retention of information in memory. Constructivism: This theory posits that learners actively construct their own knowledge and understanding of the world based on their experiences and interactions with their environment. Humanism: This theory emphasizes the role of individual agency and self-determination in learning and focuses on the importance of fostering personal growth and self-actualization. Connectivism: This theory posits that learning occurs through the connections that individuals make with others and with technology and emphasizes the importance of social networks and digital media in learning. Social Learning Theory: This theory suggests that learning occurs through observation and imitation of others, as well as through reinforcement and punishment of behavior. Experiential Learning: This theory emphasizes the role of experience and reflection in learning and suggests that learning occurs through active engagement with real-world problems and situations. Multiple Intelligences: This theory suggests that individuals possess multiple types of intelligence, including linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalistic intelligence.
  9. If you want something you never had, then you will have to do something that you never did
  10. Some people have right thumb on the top Some people have left thumb on the top This shows the mind works differently and if we change our posture, then we feel uncomfortable. Therefore, we should not imitate other blindly.
  11. Interesting exercise. This one image gives you different answers from different people. Some say they see pink Some say they see sea green and grey Think why different answers?
  12. Visual – what you see, pictures, use of color and decoration, a preference for information presented graphically and pictorially Auditory – what you hear, sounds, voices, music, being able to process information presented verbally Kinesthetic – what you feel, a preference for touch and to experience things personally, learn well by trying and doing
  13. Eye cues.
