5“One might say that professional

education is about developing pedagogies to link ideas, practices and values under conditions of inherent uncertainty that

necessitate not only judgement in order to act but also cognizance of the

consequences of one’s actions. In the presence of uncertainty one is obliged to

learn from experience”

PEDAGOGIC MODELSor Theories of Learning

HOW DO WE LEARN?Long term acquisition and application of knowledge and

skills

Objectivism ConstructivismKnowledge is passed through inductive and deductive reasoning

Knowledge is constructed through personal understanding

from meaningful shared experiences

Student-to-content Student-to-StudentStudent-to-teacher

Student Alone

Reading, problems in books, presentations, lectures, papers, web

search …

Student-to-Student

Reviews, peer-critique, pairs, projects,

discussion, questioning …

Student-to-Many

Reflection, Blogging, Twitter, Journals,

Presentation, PBL, IBL …

Many-to-Many

Class discussion, debate, wikis, PBL,

IBL, role play …

Objectivism ConstructivismKnowledge is passed through inductive and deductive reasoning

Knowledge is constructed through personal understanding

from meaningful shared experiences

Epistemological Perspective

Behaviourism Cognitivism Constructivism Collaborative

Learning is …performing new behaviours

processing of information

making meaning by doing

intellectual convergence via discourse

Teaching is …

training for new behaviour

transmission of information to learners

facilitating activity where learners make meaning

inducting learners into the knowledge discourse

Behaviourism Cognitivism

constructivism collaborativism

We will have a brief look at one

or two ideas associated with each of these

theories - see if you can start to jot some ways in which this might impact on class

practice.

SOME BEHAVIOURISTS

B.F. Skinner - (1904-1990) - Operant Conditioning“Education is what survives when what has been learned has been forgotten.”

Ivan Pavlov - (1849-1936) - Classical Conditioning“Appetite, craving for food, is a constant and powerful stimulator of the gastric glands"

Edward Thorndike(1874-1949)Law of Effect

John Watson(1873-1958)Father of Behaviourism

SOME COGNITIVISTSCharles Reigeluth(1948-)Elaboration Theory

Robert Gagné(1916-2002)Conditions of Learning

Jean Piaget - (1896-1980) - Stages of Development“The principle goal of education in the schools should be creating men and women who are capable of doing new things, not simply repeating what other generations have done.”

Daniel Willingham - (1961-) - Reframing the mind“People are naturally curious, but we are not naturally good thinkers; unless the cognitive conditions are right, we will avoid thinking.”

SOME CONSTRUCTIVISTS

John Dewey (1859-1952) - Functional Psychology“The self is not something ready-made, but something in continuous formation through choice of action”

Lev Vygotsky (1896-1934) - Social Constructavism“Speech and action are part of one and the same complex psychological function, directed toward the solution of the problem at hand”

Jerome Bruner (1915-) - Discovery Learning“One seeks to equip the child with deeper, more gripping, and subtler ways of knowing the world and himself.”

SOME CONNECTIONISTS

George Siemens (1965-) - Connectivism“The value of social media – blogs, wikis, podcasts, social networking – in learning is readily apparent. Any opportunity (or technology) that enables the formation of connections between learners and educators is worth exploring."

Stephen Downes (1959-) - New Media“We need to move beyond the idea that an education is something provided for us and towards the idea that an education is something that we create for ourselves”

a few contemporary ideas about teaching

and learning it’s worth knowing about …

How does this fit into your existing schema or ontology of education / schooling?

How does this fit with your experiences of education / schooling?

How does this challenge your model of education / schooling?

ACADEMIC WRITING

Reflection is a form of mental processing that we use to fulfil a purpose or to

achieve some anticipated outcome. It is applied to gain a better understanding of

relatively complicated or unstructured ideas and is largely based on the

reprocessing of knowledge, understanding and, possibly, emotions that we already

process
