Reflective Questions
◦ What are the opportunities
that are given to students in
both situations?
◦ What is the style of
collaboration between the
learner and teacher?
◦ What kind of culture do these
situations have?
◦ According to you, in which
situation does effective
learning take place? and Why?

Learning is through Legitimate Peripheral Participation
Learning is a social process
Central principle of Learning according to Situated
Learning Theory
Through legitimate practice, learners develop their knowledge, skill, and
discourse moving from novices to experts
Ref. Anderson et al., 1996 & Wilson, 1993 17

WE APPLY
THIS THEORY
INTO
PRACTICE?
