Learning as a Process

|

Learning is defined as the process of acquiring , assimilating,

and internalizing cognitive, motor or behavioral inputs for

their effective and varied use when required, leading to an

enhanced capability for further self monitored learning.


B

Learning process

• Acquiring of new input terms of knowledge

• Assimilation

• Internalization

• Available for effective use

• Development of creativity

• Increase person’s capability

B

Pedagogy


B

Meaning

• Pedagogue is defined as “a schoolteacher. One who instructs in

a pedantic or dogmatic manner”. In the pedagogic model,

teachers assume responsibility for making decisions about

what is learned, and how and when something will be learned.


B

Constructivist Theory

• Formalization of the theory of constructivism is generally attributed to Jean Piaget, who articulated mechanisms by which knowledge is internalized by learners.

• He suggested that through processes of accommodation and assimilation, individuals construct new knowledge from their experiences.

• Constructivism is often associated with pedagogic approaches that promote active learning, or learning by doing.


B

Pedagogies based on constructivism

• Learners learn by experimentation, and not by being told what will happen.

• They are left to make their own inferences, discoveries and conclusions.

• It also emphasizes that learning is not an "all or nothing" process but that students learn the new information that is presented to them by building upon knowledge that they already possess.

• It is therefore important that teachers constantly assess the knowledge their students have gained to make sure that the students' perceptions of the new knowledge are what the teacher had intended.


B

Pedagogies based on constructivism

• The teacher's role is not only to observe and assess but to also engage with the students while they are completing activities, wondering aloud and posing questions to the students for promotion of reasoning.

• The teacher, after reading a story, encourages the students to write or draw stories of their own, or by having the students reenact a story that they may know well, both activities encourage the students to conceive themselves as reader and writers.


B

Cognitive Theory

• Grew in response to Behaviorism

• Knowledge is stored cognitively as symbols

• Learning is the process of connecting symbols in a

meaningful & memorable way

• Studies focused on the mental processes that facilitate

symbol connection


B

Cognitive Learning Theory

Discovery Learning –

Jerome Bruner

Meaningful Verbal Learning

- David Ausubel


B

Cognitive Learning Theory Discovery Learning

1. Bruner said anybody can learn anything at any age, provided it is stated in terms they can understand.


B


Discovery Learning

2. Powerful Concepts (not isolated facts)

a. Transfer to many different situations b. Only possible through Discovery Learning c. Confront the learner with problems and help them find solutions. Do not present sequenced materials.


B


Meaningful Verbal Learning

Advance Organizers: New material is presented

in a systematic way, and is

connected to existing

cognitive structures in a

meaningful way.


B

Cognitivism in the Classroom

• Inquiry-oriented projects

• Opportunities for the testing of

hypotheses

• Curiosity encouraged


B

Cognitive Dissonance Theory

• Comes from social psychology

• One of the most famous and influential theories

• Proposes that people have a motivational drive to reduce dissonance

• By changing their attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors, or

• By justifying or rationalizing their attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors


B

Cognitive Dissonance

• Cognitive Dissonance:

The distressing mental state caused by inconsistency

between a two beliefs or a belief and an action.

• Assumption: Humans are consistent. Must find a resolution when beliefs conflict, or actions don’t match beliefs.

• Example: Slavery and Democracy


B

Reducing Dissonance

• Whenever there is dissonance, we seek to reduce it.

1. Selective Exposure: The tendency to avoid information that creates cognitive dissonance and seek out information, people who support our beliefs.

• How to overcome persuasively? – Avoid the hard sell

– Warm personal relationships

– Example: racial discrimination and my brother


B

Postdecision Dissonance

Strong doubts experienced after making an important, close-call decision that is difficult to reverse.

– “buyers remorse”

• Motivates us to seek reassurance, support for our decision.

• Afterwards, tend to rate our choice higher

– Example: Sour Grapes


B

3. Minimal Justification for Action Induces Shift in Attitude

• The best way to change attitudes is to get someone to behave in a way dissonant with their beliefs with the least amount of incentive.

– If there isn’t significant external incentive, people tend to change attitudes to justify their behavior

– If external incentive too high, merely achieve compliance (behavioral conformity without attitude change)

• Example: Would I lie for a dollar?

B

Androgogy

By definition of an adult is someone who has achieved

the self concept of being responsible for their own life.

Adult Learning: Theories, Assumptions, and

Perspectives “The art and science of helping adults

learn”


B

Cont….,

• ANDRAGOGY

• Adults are Autonomous and Self -Directed.

• Adults Have Accumulated a Foundation of Life

Experiences and Knowledge.

• Adults are Relevancy-oriented

• Adults are Goal-oriented

• Adults are practical Implication for Training


B

Cont….,

• Adults are likely to resist learning conditions that

conflict with their self concept.

• Adults need to be free to direct themselves.

• Trainer must actively involve adult participants in

the learning process and serve as facilitators for

them.


B

History of Adult Learning Theory:

From “Whatagogy?” to Andragogy

• The Meaning of Adult Education by Eduard Lindeman in 1926

marked the beginning of adult education as a field

• Adult educators began to look for a unique adult education

knowledge base

• European adult educators began to use the term andragogy in the

1950s

• Andragogy finally surfaced and became part of the educational

language in 1967 with Malcolm Knowles, a prominent scholar in

the field of adult education.


B

Andragogy Defined

• The term andragogy is based on the Greek work aner (with the

stem andr-) meaning „man not boy‟ (Plato‟s idea that adults

continue to learn

• The Modern Practice of Adult Education: Andragogy versus

Pedagogy (1970) Malcolm Knowles

• Knowles defines andragogy as the art and science of helping

adults learn in contrast with pedagogy, which concerns helping

children learn

• Is Andragogy a learning theory or a set of assumptions?


B

Assumptions of Andragogy

• Adults need to know why they need to learn something

• Adults need to learn experientially

• Adults approach learning as a problem solving

• Adults learn best when the topic is immediate value


B

The principles of andragogy

• Adults need to be involved in the planning & evaluation of

their instructions

• Experience provides the basis for learning activities

• Adults are most interested in learning subjects that have

immediate relevance to their job or personal life

• Adult learning is a problem centered rather than content

oriented


B

Malcolm Knowles

• In the minds of many around the adult education field,

andragogy and the name of Malcolm Knowles have become

inextricably linked. For Knowles, andragogy is premised on at

least four crucial assumptions about the characteristics of adult

learners that are different from the assumptions about child

learners on which traditional pedagogy is premised. A fifth

was added later.


B

Cont……

• Self-concept: As a person matures his self concept moves from

one of being a dependent personality toward one of being a

self-directed human being

• Experience: As a person matures he accumulates a growing

reservoir of experience that becomes an increasing resource

for learning.

• Readiness to learn. As a person matures his readiness to learn

becomes oriented increasingly to the developmental tasks of

his social roles.


B

Cont……

• Orientation to learning. As a person matures his time

perspective changes from one of postponed application of

knowledge to immediacy of application, and accordingly his

orientation toward learning shifts from one of subject-

centeredness to one of problem centeredness.

• Motivation to learn: As a person matures the motivation to

learn is internal


B

Four Supporting Assumptions according to Dirkx, Lavin, and

Pelavin (1995)

• Diverse, active learners: wealth of experiences

• Problem-oriented: pragmatic learners, seeking to improve their

performance

• Control of their own learning: voluntary learners who take

seriously their decision to return to school.

• Strong sense of self: varying degrees of self-efficacy, but sense

of self plays a major role in their learning


B

A comparison of the assumptions of Pedagogy and

Andragogy

ANDRAGOGY

• A comparison of the

assumptions of pedagogy

and andragogy

• Of little worth. Hence

teaching methods are

didactic

PEDAGOGY

• A comparison of the

assumptions of pedagogy

and andragogy

• A rich resource for

learning. Hence teaching

methods include discussion,

problem-solving etc.


B

Cont.,…

ANDRAGOGY

• People learn what society

expects them to. So that the

curriculum is standardized.

• Acquisition of subject matter.

Curriculum organized by

subjects.

PEDAGOGY

• People learn what they need to

know, so that learning

programmes organized around

life application.

• Learning experiences should

be based around experiences,

since people are performance

centered in their learning
