SocialCultural
Characteristics
Learning occurs when we interract with others, we need to be social in order to learn (Cherry, 2022)
Theorist associated with social cultural is Lev Vygotsky (Cherry, 2022).
How learning occurs
Types of Learning
Memory
Our brains need social skills to help the brain develop its higher-order functions, and help the zone of proximate development (Cherry, 2022)
learning will occur when you set groups of lower level students with higher level students, use prompts or direct instruction to teach, and scaffold the learning (Cherry, 2022).
The best type of learning is learning through play, role playing, imagination play, games, and real events (Cherry, 2022)
Connectivism
Characteristics
Theorist associated with connectivism, George Siemens and Stephen Downes (WGU, 2021)
This is a relatively new theory, it is how technology plays a big role in the learning process, having easy access to knowlege (WGU, 2021)
Types of Learning
How learning occurs
Memory
ways for learning can be adding social media to your classroom, making games out of the lessons to make them interactive, creating simulations for learning (WGU, 2021)
We use our connection to things to learn, internet, books, people, when we make connections we form knowlege (WGU, 2021)
Learning occurs by having the teacher lead the students thinking to help them become agents for their own learning, it is up to the learner to learn something (WGU, 2021)
Adult Learning Theory
Characteristics
Adult learning theory is based on how adults are different because they have more experience, we want to help adults learn things that can be put into practice the next day (New England, 2021)
Theorist associated with adult learning theory is Malcolm Knowles (New England, 2021)
Types of Learning
Memory
How learning occurs
Adult learners are more knowledgable already, they seek out the information they want to learn and use their experiences to connect that learning (New England, 2021)
adults learn best in a variety of ways, keep the information relevent to the job at hand and having personal connections made with the learning with keep adults engaged (New England, 2021)
Adults engage deeply when they can relate to the information, they are self motivated, they can choose what they learn about, and they succeed with collaberation (New England, 2021)
