Theories of learning
The document discusses several theories of learning:
1) Behavioral theories including Pavlov's classical conditioning, Thorndike's law of effect, and Skinner's operant conditioning which use reinforcement and consequences to shape behavior.
2) Social learning theory developed by Bandura which emphasizes learning from observing and modeling others, involving attention, retention, reproduction, and motivation.
3) Definitions of learning focus on acquisition of knowledge, skills, and attitudes through experience that enables better adaptation. Learning is explained as a reflective process that develops understanding or changes mental processes.
Presentation neil
This document discusses learner-centered education and humanistic theory. It advocates for teachers acting as facilitators in a holistic learning process where teachers and pupils have equal status. The theory is based on psychological research about human nature that positions learners at the center.
Theories of learning
The document discusses several theories of learning: behaviorism, cognitivism, social learning theory, and social constructivism. Behaviorism views learning as observable changes in behavior and focuses on classical and operant conditioning. Cognitivism sees learning as the formation of mental connections between symbols. Social learning theory emphasizes observational learning and imitation. Social constructivism frames learning as an active, collaborative process where learners construct new understandings together.
Human learning theories
This document provides an overview of several theories of human learning and their implications for teaching methods. It discusses behaviorism, meaningful learning theory, and humanistic psychology. Behaviorism, according to Pavlov and Skinner, views learning as the acquisition of behaviors based on environmental conditioning. Meaningful learning theory, from Ausubel, emphasizes relating new concepts to existing knowledge structures. Humanistic psychology, from Rogers, focuses on empowering learners and facilitating self-directed discovery. The document also covers types of learning, reasoning processes, and factors like intelligence and aptitude that influence learning. Finally, it analyzes several teaching methods and their strengths and weaknesses in applying learning theories.
Lesson 6 ppt
This document discusses four learning domains: meaningful learning, discovery learning, generative learning, and constructivism. For meaningful learning, new knowledge is related to previous knowledge and learners make personal connections. Discovery learning is inquiry-based and learner-driven. Generative learning involves learners actively generating meaning through recall, integration, organization, and elaboration. Constructivism posits that learning involves learners constructing understanding from their experiences by connecting new information to prior knowledge. The key themes across these domains are that learners are active, set personal goals, make learning meaningful and relevant to their lives, and build new understanding on existing knowledge.

Behaviorism and cognitivism are two theories of learning that differ in their perspectives. Behaviorism views learning as changes in observable behavior due to environmental experiences, while cognitivism sees it as changes in mental representations and associations from experiences. Both theories emphasize the role of environmental conditions and practice with feedback in facilitating learning, though they differ in areas like the role of errors, exposure, and the learner's level of activity.

Behaviorism
This document summarizes key aspects of behaviorism as a learning theory. It discusses pioneers like Pavlov and Skinner and their experiments with conditioning. Their work established that learning can be understood through stimulus-response associations and reinforcement. The document also outlines behavioral teaching methods, such as breaking down skills into small units and using reinforcement. Overall, it provides an overview of behaviorism's core ideas and their application to education.
Learning theories
Learning theories can be categorized into behavioral, constructivist, socio-cultural, and cognitive approaches. Behavioral theories such as classical conditioning and operant conditioning focus on the association between stimuli and responses. Constructivism posits that learning is an active process where learners construct new ideas based on past knowledge. Socio-cultural theory emphasizes the important role social interaction plays in cognitive development. Cognitive theories examine internal cognitive processes and believe that learning involves gaining insight. The different learning theories provide various perspectives on how learning occurs.
Theories of learning
The document discusses several theories of learning: S-R Bond Theory, which links specific responses to stimuli through conditioning; Behaviorism, which asserts that learning is conditioning through stimulus substitution; Gestalt Theory, which emphasizes using instincts and meaningful patterns; and Functionalism, which views behavior/mental processes as adapting to the environment. It also covers Information Processing Theory, which likens the brain to a computer, and Behavioral Theories including Classical Conditioning by Pavlov and Operant Conditioning by Skinner.
Behaviorism
This document discusses behaviorism as a philosophy of education. It focuses on using stimuli and reinforcement to change student behavior positively. The teacher controls learning situations and applies reinforcement to encourage desired behaviors. Students play an active role by responding to stimuli and reinforcement. Materials are used as stimuli and should include reinforcement. Both motivation and punishment are forms of reinforcement, with motivation being positive and punishment requiring care. Behaviorism aims to efficiently teach new behaviors but risks affecting student self-esteem and individuality.
HUMAN LEARNING
Human learning can be explained through various theories. Pavlov's classical behaviorism viewed learning as the formation of associations between stimuli and responses. Skinner's operant conditioning emphasized how operant behaviors are reinforced or punished in the environment. Ausubel's meaningful learning theory proposed that new information is related to what is already known through meaningful learning rather than rote memorization. Learning a foreign language involves different types of learning processes like stimulus-response learning, concept learning, and problem solving as learners continually solve problems by applying prior knowledge. Transfer, interference, and overgeneralization also impact second language learning.
Process of learning final
Learning is a process of acquiring knowledge or skills through experience that results in long-term behavioral changes. The learning process involves perception, processing of information, and mental processes like converging and diverging thinking. There are different types of inquiry-based learning where students generate questions and design investigations to find answers, including open inquiry where students work independently. Brain-based learning uses strategies grounded in neuroscience research on how the brain naturally learns, and involves connecting lessons to real-life through experiential activities in a stimulating environment.
Cognativeism vs behaviorism
This document compares and contrasts the theories of behaviorism and cognitivism in psychology. Behaviorism sees behavior as influenced by external stimuli and reinforcement, while cognitivism sees internal mental processes like thinking and memory as important. Specifically, behaviorism views the learner as a passive recipient shaped by the environment, while cognitivism sees the learner as an active processor. Some key differences discussed include the role of the teacher, treatment of errors, the importance of practice, language syllabus structure, and grading approaches. Overall, both theories emphasize the role of environmental conditions and practice with feedback in the learning process.
What is learning
Learning involves acquiring new knowledge, behaviors, skills, values, and understanding through various methods. There are many types of learning including experiential learning through direct experience, associative learning by forming connections between elements, observational learning through imitation, and informal learning from everyday situations. Learning also involves different domains such as cognitive learning of facts, psychomotor learning of physical skills, and affective learning of values and preferences.

This study compared behaviorist and constructivist teaching methods for teaching a psychomotor skill. Two groups of gifted students were taught how to make an origami pumpkin using either a behaviorist step-by-step approach or a constructivist cooperative learning approach. Both groups' finished products were scored using a rubric, and students evaluated the instruction. Analysis found no significant difference in performance between groups. However, students significantly preferred the behaviorist instructional method based on evaluations. The study did not support shifting to exclusively constructivist methods for teaching linear psychomotor tasks.

Constructivism - In Education
Constructivism is a learning theory that posits that individuals construct knowledge and meaning from their experiences. According to constructivism, learning is an active process where learners build knowledge by interpreting new information through their existing mental frameworks and experiences. Constructivist teaching focuses on involving learners actively in the learning process and encourages students to construct their own understandings rather than passively receiving information. Key principles of constructivism include that knowledge is socially constructed, learning is contextual and interpretive, and people learn by reflecting on their experiences.
Learning
Learning is defined as any relatively permanent change in behavior resulting from experience or practice. Learning is an ability possessed by humans, animals, plants, and some machines, and is a type of behavioral change. Key concepts in learning theory include classical and operant conditioning proposed by psychologists like Albert Bandura, as well as observational learning and principles of learning like those used to promote student success in classrooms.
Learning theory presentation
This presentation discusses two learning theories: operant conditioning and constructivism. It provides background on the history and theorists behind each theory. For operant conditioning, it discusses B.F. Skinner's work and how adults respond to positive and negative feedback. For constructivism, it discusses Jean Piaget, John Dewey, Lev Vygotsky, and Jerome Bruner's contributions and how learners construct new ideas based on prior knowledge. The presentation also explores how each theory can impact adult education environments. The conclusion reflects on how learning theories overlap and no single theory provides all answers, but together they help educators support learning.
Behavioral vs. cognitive views of learning
Behavioral and cognitive views of learning have existed for decades. Behaviorists say that learning involves forming associations between actions and stimuli, while cognitivists say learning involves forming mental representations of task elements and their relationships. An experiment on rats in mazes found that when landmarks were visible, rats learning to navigate to a single place learned faster, supporting cognitive views, but when landmarks were hidden, rats learning a response pattern learned faster, supporting behavioral views.
Research learning theories
The document discusses several learning theories:
- Constructivism posits that learning is an active process where learners construct knowledge based on experiences and testing hypotheses about their environment.
- Behaviorism views learning as a passive process where the environment shapes behavior through reinforcement or consequences.
- Essentialism focuses on teaching basic skills needed for citizenship.
- Progressivism emphasizes learning by doing and pursuing individual interests and needs.
- The adult learning theory called andragogy recognizes that adults learn differently than children, being more self-directed, motivated by internal factors, and ready to learn.
Intelligent behaviors characteristics
This document discusses key strategies for teaching secondary students. It outlines six main strategies: creativity and innovation, managing impulsivity, collaborative work, making inferences, metacognition, and empathetic listening. For each strategy, an example is provided of how it could be implemented in a classroom. The strategies include allowing students to be creative in labs and designs, using "wait time" to manage impulsivity, assigning collaborative problem-solving activities, having students apply concepts to real-world examples, incorporating self-reflection activities, and observing empathetic listening among students. The overall document provides research-based teaching methods and gives classroom-level examples of implementing each strategy.
Behaviorism, constructivism, cognitivism
This document discusses different views of learners, learning, teachers, and classrooms from behavioral, cognitive, and constructivist perspectives.
The behavioral view sees the learner as passive and shaped by environmental stimuli without internal reflection. The teacher controls learning through reinforcement. The cognitive view sees the active learner integrating new and existing knowledge through mental processing. The teacher provides tools for organizing information.
The constructivist view is learner-centered, with students constructing their own understanding through hands-on experiences. The teacher acts as a guide, using modeling, coaching and scaffolding to facilitate student-led discussion and interactive, project-based activities.
Psychological foundations ppt
The document compares three approaches to learning: behavioral, cognitive, and humanistic. The behavioral approach focuses on conditioning and modifying behavior through rewards and punishments. The cognitive approach focuses on developing critical thinking skills and intelligence. The humanistic approach views learning as influenced by the whole child and their environment. Key psychologists who influenced each approach are identified, such as Thorndike, Pavlov, and Skinner for behavioralism; Piaget and Vygotsky for cognitivism; and Maslow and Rogers for humanism.

Potential trad med-graz-etal-mal-j-2011
Traditional medicines have contributed to modern malaria treatments, with quinine and artemisinin originating from traditional sources. While traditional medicines are widely used for malaria in developing countries, few clinical trials have evaluated their safety and effectiveness. Greater collaboration between traditional and modern healthcare could help utilize traditional medicines' potential as complementary treatments or low-cost alternatives, especially in remote areas. More research is needed to validate promising traditional therapies and determine under what conditions they could be officially recommended in malaria control programs.
Prognosis outcome trad-med-mauritania-ecam08
1) Practitioners of traditional Arabic medicine in Mauritania were able to predict patient outcomes similarly to methods of modern Western medicine, according to evaluations by modern general practitioners.
2) On average, patient progress under traditional Arabic treatment was similar to what could be expected with modern medical treatment. In some cases, outcomes were even better than expected.
3) The practitioners of different medical systems spontaneously organized weekly joint meetings with a nearby modern health center, indicating the potential for integration and collaboration between traditional and modern approaches.

Econforrealpeople
This chapter introduces the subject of economics and discusses the difficulty in defining it. While economics deals with topics like money, business, and wealth distribution, its core focus is on the predictable regularity that emerges from human interaction in society, known as spontaneous order. This regularity stands apart from both the mechanical laws of physics and the conscious plans of individuals. Determining economics' basic assumptions about what it studies is an important first step in understanding this young but important science.

Theories of learning
The document discusses different theories of learning including behaviorism, constructivism, and definitions of learning. Behaviorism views learning as changes in observable behavior due to stimuli and reinforcement. Constructivism sees learning as an active process where learners construct knowledge based on their experiences. The document contrasts traditional classrooms with constructivist classrooms, noting differences in how students and teachers approach learning.
Learning_Theories explained copyright -Michelle Mckoy
The document discusses several learning theories: behaviourism, cognitivism, constructivism. Behaviourism views learning as changes in observable behaviour through reinforcement/punishment. Cognitivism sees learning as information processing through mental structures like schemas. Constructivism believes learners construct their own knowledge through experiences. The document also discusses theorists like Skinner, Piaget, Vygotsky and their contributions to these perspectives. It notes tensions between direct instruction vs constructivist approaches and addresses criticisms of constructivism.
Theories of Learning and Individual Development
The document discusses five broad models of learning:
1) The behaviorist model views learning as observable changes in behavior through stimulus-response mechanisms and reinforcement.
2) The humanist model sees learning as an internal process driven by the learner's potential for growth.
3) The information processing model understands learning as organizing and reorganizing information in schemas.
4) The activity model constructs knowledge through social experience and tasks.
5) The situated learning model emphasizes that learning occurs in authentic contexts through participation in communities of practice.
Factors affecting esp course designppt
The document discusses several learning theories that are relevant to course design:
- Cognitive theory focuses on mental processes like thinking and problem-solving. Learning involves changing mental schemas.
- Behaviorism views learning as the formation of stimulus-response habits through reinforcement. Operant conditioning uses rewards to shape behaviors.
- Constructivism holds that learners construct their own knowledge through experience and social interaction. Learning involves problem-solving and critical thinking.
- Humanism emphasizes the affective domain and sees learners as whole persons aiming to fulfill their potential. Factors like motivation and emotion influence learning.
Theories of Learning
The document summarizes several theories of learning, including:
- Classical conditioning, which involves stimulus-response associations. Pioneered by Ivan Pavlov.
- Operant conditioning, where behavior is shaped by consequences. Introduced by B.F. Skinner.
- Social learning theory, developed by Albert Bandura, which emphasizes observational learning and modeling.
- Cognitive learning theories including assimilation theory and schema theory.
- Piaget's stage theory of child cognitive development.
- Discovery learning pioneered by Jerome Bruner which emphasizes learner discovery.
- Vygotsky's social development theory where social interaction precedes development.
- Situated learning theory developed by Jean Lave which argues learning is

Lesson 6 ppt- Relabeth David-Rovelyn Flores- Yvonne Rebecca Pastorfide
This document discusses four learning domains: meaningful learning, discovery learning, generative learning, and constructivism. For meaningful learning, new knowledge is related to previous knowledge and learners make personal connections. Discovery learning is inquiry-based and learner-driven. Generative learning involves actively generating meaning through recall, integration, organization, and elaboration. Constructivism posits that learning involves constructing understanding from experiences and connecting to existing knowledge. The key themes across these domains are that learners are active, set personal goals, make learning meaningful and relevant, and build new understanding on prior knowledge.
Constructivisim Learning Theory
The document discusses key principles of constructivism as a learning theory. It defines constructivism as how people create meaning from their experiences and interactions with the world. Constructivism sees learning as an active process where students construct new understandings based on previous knowledge. The document outlines theorists like Piaget, Dewey, and Bruner who influenced constructivist ideas of discovery learning and problem-based learning. It also discusses debates between cognitivists and constructivists on the appropriate use of constructivist pedagogies for novice learners.
IT enters a new Learning Environment
The document discusses four learning domains: meaningful learning, discovery learning, generative learning, and constructivism. For meaningful learning, students relate new knowledge to prior knowledge through hands-on activities and positive learning environments. Discovery learning involves students uncovering knowledge through inquiry and tasks. Generative learning focuses on students actively generating meaning from experiences by recalling, integrating, organizing, and elaborating on information. Constructivism posits that learning involves learners constructing understanding from new information and experiences based on existing knowledge.
Qw
Views student on How to learning occur
The document discusses several theories of how learning occurs:
1) Behaviorism - Learning is the acquisition of new behaviors through conditioning like classical and operant conditioning.
2) Cognitivism - Focuses on mental processes like how perception, memory, judgment and problem solving affect learning.
3) Constructivism - People actively construct their own understanding and knowledge through experiences and reflecting on them.
4) Transformative learning theory - Learning involves changing frames of reference through critically reflecting on assumptions.
Theories_of_Learning Final.pptx
The document discusses several theories of learning:
- Behaviorism views learning as observable behaviors and focuses on conditioning through rewards and punishments.
- Cognitivism sees learning as the process of connecting symbols cognitively and studies mental processes. Approaches include discovery learning and meaningful verbal learning.
- Social constructivism believes knowledge is actively constructed through social and contextualized processes. Learning is an inherently social activity.
Ace
Formal education is based on directing and facilitating the learning process. For teachers to be effective, they must understand how learning occurs. There are several theories that describe learning, including behaviorism, cognitivism, and constructivism. Behaviorism views learning as changes in observable behavior due to environmental conditioning. Cognitivism looks at how memory, knowledge, and thinking impact learning. Constructivism sees learning as an active process where learners construct new understandings based on interactions and experiences. Effective teachers should understand the different perspectives on the learning process.

Philosophy in teaching
The document discusses several educational philosophies:
- Essentialism focuses on academic content mastery and transmitting traditional values.
- Perennialism views education as developing rational and moral powers through great books.
- Existentialism emphasizes individual focus and choice in learning.
- Behaviorism shapes behavior through environmental conditions.
- Linguistic philosophy teaches clear communication in various ways.
- Constructivism positions learners as knowledge builders through active mental processes.
THEORIES OF LEARNING PRESENTATION .pptx
The document discusses several theories of learning including behaviorism, cognitivism, and constructivism. Behaviorism believes that learning occurs through conditioning and is based on observable behaviors. Cognitivism focuses on internal mental processes and believes learning involves forming mental associations. Constructivism holds that people actively construct knowledge based on experiences and social interactions. Specific theories discussed include classical conditioning, operant conditioning, social learning theory, schema theory, social constructivism, and situated learning.
LEARNING THEORIES
This document discusses the following points;
1. School of thought
2. Some proponents
3. Application to mathematics
4. Implication to teaching and learning
5. Teaching methods
Comparison between behaviorist theory and cognitivist theory
Behaviorism sees learning as the acquisition of behaviors through environmental conditioning and reinforcement. Cognitivism views learning as a conscious process involving mental strategies and reasoning. Behaviorism focuses on observable behaviors while Cognitivism examines internal mental processes. Both theories emphasize the role of environmental factors and practice with feedback in facilitating learning, though they differ in their level of analysis of the learning process.
Learning theories intro
1) The document provides an overview of the main theories of learning that have emerged from research, beginning with behaviourist theories based on conditioning principles from early 20th century experiments. 2) It then discusses criticisms of behaviourism, leading to new cognitivist and constructivist perspectives that view learning as an active process of constructing knowledge and developing more complex thinking over time. 3) The implications of these different theories for teaching practice are outlined, such as a shift from a teacher-centered approach based on reinforcement to one that facilitates active learning.

Learning theories
- 1. LEARNING THEORIES Behaviourist theory Constructivist theory Situated learning
- 2. Behaviourist theory Its main influences were Ivan Pavlov, who investigated classical conditioning John B. Watson (1878-1958) who rejected introspective methods and sought to restrict psychology to experimental laboratory methods. B.F. Skinner, sought to give ethical grounding to behaviorism, relating it to pragmatism.
- 3. Behaviourist theory Behaviourist Theory maintains a focus on the change in observable behaviours as the manifestations of learning. Thus the theory states that is learning is the acquisition of new behaviour through conditioning
- 4. Behaviourist theory The means of conditioning is achieved in two ways namely, classical and operant. Operant conditioning is where there is reinforcement of a behaviour by a reward or punishment. Reinforcement is any means of increasing the likelihood that an event will be repeated.
- 5. Behaviourist theory Classical conditioning is where the behaviour becomes a reflex response to stimulus. For example Dogs who were fed continuously by persons in lab coats reacted as if food was on its way whenever they saw a lab coat
- 6. Characteristics Behaviourist believes: Learning is manifested by a change in behaviour Environment shapes behaviour ( nurture) Contiguity and reinforcement are integral to the learning process. Contiguity describes how close in time two events must be for a bond to be formed and Basic laws of learning are the same for all animals whether dogs or humans.
- 7. Implications: Learning environment Behaviourist view learning as a change in behaviour, therefore educators arrange the environment to get desired responses through: Behavioural objectives Competency based education Skill development and training
- 8. Constructivist theory Constructivism is a synthesis of multiple theories diffused into one form. It is the assimilation of both behaviorialist and cognitive ideals. The “constructivist stance maintains that learning is a process of constructing meaning; it is how people make sense of their experience”
- 9. Characteristics of the Constructivist theory Constructivist believe that: Peoples construct their own understanding of the world through experiencing things and reflecting on these experiences. When learners encounter something new, they reconcile it with previous knowledge and experiences. In the end they may change what they believe , or they may discard the new information as irrelevant.
- 10. Implications: Learning environment The teacher acts as a facilitator and guide in helping the students to become active participants in their learning. Thus enabling them to make the connection between prior knowledge and new knowledge. The teacher helps the student to construct knowledge rather than reproduce a series of facts.
- 11. Implications: Learning environment The teacher provide tools such as problem solving and inquiry based learning activities so that student can formulate and test their ideas, and draw their own conclusions.
- 12. Situated Learning Situated Learning Theory, created by Jean Lave and Etienne Wenger as a model of learning in a community of practice, advances that learning is involuntary and situated within authentic activity, context, and culture. Simply put, situated learning is learning that takes place in the same context in which it is applied.
- 13. Situated Learning Situated learning is related to Vygotsky’s notion of learning through social development Regular classroom learning activities involve: 1) Abstract knowledge which is in and out of context,
- 14. Characteristics Lave argues that learning is situated; that is, It occurs normally (unintentional rather than deliberate) It is embedded within activity It is embedded within context and It is embedded within culture. Lave and Wenger (1991) call this unintentional learning a process of “legitimate peripheral participation” or LPP
- 15. Implications Knowledge needs to be presented in authentic contexts — settings and situations that would normally involve that knowledge. Social interaction and collaboration are essential components of situated learning — learners become involved in a “community of practice” which embodies certain beliefs and behaviours to be acquired.
- 16. Implications As the beginner or novice moves from the periphery of a community to its center, he or she becomes more active and engaged within the culture and eventually assumes the role of an expert.
- 17. Learning activity: Constructivist theory Students will go on a nature walk and will be encourage to choose a hibiscus flower. They will be guided by the teacher in taking apart the flower then they will examine and name the different parts.
