JOT 2 – LEARNING THEORIES Michelle Hatch NOTE: Please be sure to download the actual assessment task and rubric from Task. Stream and carefully read what each task requires.
Task A: Learning Theories & Learners Constructivism, Cognitivism, Behaviorism
When Constructivism is Beneficial for Learners ●Hands-on learning ●Science experiments ●Discovery learning ●Scaffolding ●Connecting old information to new information ●Reviewing concepts previously learned
When Cognitivism is Beneficial for Learners ●Direct instruction ●Memorizing rules ●Memorizing facts ●Using schema or prior knowledge ●Making connections to information already stored in the brain
When Behaviorism is Beneficial for Learners ●Classroom management ●Point system ●Time-out or wall recess ●Responding to students’ responses ●Praising participation or answers
Task B: Learning Theory Used in Lesson Plan
The learning theory used in this lesson plan is the Cognitive Learning Theory as students are given direct instructions about the rules of letter sounds.
Task C: Adaptation of Lesson Plan
Constructivism ● ● ● Can easily be adapted to the Constructivist learning theory by inverting roles during the “I do” section of the lesson. Ask for suggestions from the students for items in the classroom that start like cat. The students should then notice that the words have something in common: they all start with the letter C.
Behaviorism ●Easily implemented into “check for understanding section. ” ●If the word starts with the letter C, students should give a thumbs-up, otherwise a thumbs-down. ●Students who respond correctly will be allowed to stay on their desks, while students who respond incorrectly will be asked to sit in their seats.
Task D: Lesson Plan Discussion
Constructivist Learning Theory is more appropriate for kindergarten audience. ● Hands-on learners ● Student-involved learning ● Shorter intervals
Task E: Effective Instruction Through the Use of Design Theories
Theories of Design and Effective Instruction ●Instructional Design is “The systematic process by which instructional materials are designed, developed, and delivered… Instructional design models typically specify a method, that if followed will facilitate the transfer of knowledge, skills and attitude to the recipient or acquirer of the instruction (What is Instructional Design, 2012). ”
For Example: Gagne’s Nine Events 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Gain Attention Provide a Learning Objective Recall Prior Knowledge Present Materials Provide Guidance for Learning Elicit Performance Provide Feedback Assess Performance Enhance Retention (Clark, 2014)
Task F: Design Theories Strengths and Limitations: ● Wiggins ● Gagne ● Teaching for Understand (The Harvard model)
Wiggins Backward Design 1. Identify desired results 2. Determine acceptable evidence 3. Plan learning experiences and instruction 1. Knowledge, skills, and procedures 2. Materials 3. Learning/teaching activities (Backwards Design, 2009)
Strengths of Wiggins Theory ●Teacher knows what students need to learn in order to succeed ●Easy to integrate curriculum ●Follows the idea of the Common Core
Limitations of Wiggins ●Teachers likely to “teach to the test” ●Focus on assessment ●Requires understanding of common core standards
Gagne’s Nine Events 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Gain Attention Provide a Learning Objective Recall Prior Knowledge Present Materials Provide Guidance for Learning Elicit Performance Provide Feedback Assess Performance Enhance Retention (Clark, 2014)
Strengths of Gagne’s Events ●Teacher and students are aware of expectations/objectives ●Scaffolding is used during the recall of prior knowledge ●Students are able to practice and receive feedback before final assessment
Limitations of Gagne’s Events ●Long planning process ●Always uses cognitivism ●Little flexibility
Teaching for Understanding 1. 2. 3. 4. Generative Topics Understanding Goals Performances of Understanding Ongoing Assessment
Strengths of Teaching for Understanding ● Can be completed in any order ● Teacher can choose assessments and activities ● A variety of learning theories could be implemented http: //www. uknow. gse. harvard. edu/teaching/TC 3 -1. html
Weaknesses of Teaching for Understanding ●Not as much structure ●Directed toward nontraditional teaching
Task G: Most Suitable Design Process
Teaching for Understanding ● Best for my kindergarten setting ● ● Flexibility Various learning theories Brief or in-depth lessons Can be used in any content area
