Theories as Perspectives
Behaviorism Congnitivism Constructivism
Description Mind is black box
Pavlov Skinner: S-R
Mind is computer Mind is Rizhome(interconnected nodes)
learning Regular, expected responses
Recall of stored information
Building knowledge by doing; active learning
Instruction Repetition, reinforcement(Rewards and punishment)
Grab attention and help storage
Guiding problem solving

Humanistic Learning Theory
Experiential Learning Theory
Social Learning Theory
Description Considering learners as human being with needs (Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs)
how experience is translated through reflection into concepts that turns to new learning
(Kolp)
observing and modeling the behaviors, attitudes, and emotional reactions of others
learning the drive to learn is intrinsic(Learning is dependent upon meeting a hierarchy of needs)
concrete experience (CE), reflective observation (RO), abstract conceptualization (AC) and active experimentation
observational learning are: Attention, Retention, Motor Reproduction and Motivation
Instruction Provide a reason and motivation for each task
plan, act, observe and reflect
cognitive and behavioral frameworks(act as a role model; eg. Actor, football player)

![Page 14: Transfer of adult learning theories into practice](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042706/5884c4771a28ab34778b76e1/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
What they want…When they want… and How they want…
Adult learners have their own style of learning
Adults are goal directed
Adults bring experiences and Knowledge to learning experience
Most Adults are self-directed learners;they want to learn:

Adult learnersCommit to learning when the goals and objectives are
considered realistic and important
Want to be the origin of their own learning
Need concrete experiences to apply learning in real work
Need feedback

Some useful adult learning models
Andragogy (Malcolm Knowles)
Self-directed Learning (Stephen Brookfield)
Experiential Learning (David Kolb)Sensing, Watching, Thinking, Doing

Andragogy
Help students define needs Help students
define objectivesOrganize learning
in relation to needs
Foster student decision making
Encourage self-evaluation
Foster a reflective approachFacilitate problem
posing and solvingReinforce student
self-concept
Emphasis experimental methods
Help with choices and choosing
Decrease teacher dependency
Help students use
resources

Andragogy Vs Pedagogy- Increasingly self-directed
- Teacher as guide & facilitator
- Wealth of life experiences
- Readiness to learn
- Problem-centered learning- Motivation is internal, for real
life benefits
- Dependent of teacher
- Teacher as authority figure
- Limited experience
- Readiness to learn determined by age level
- Subject-centered learning- Motivation by external
rewards & Punishments

Application of Adult Theory into a training Session???
A -ssist trainers in planning, implementation and evaluating learners’ training
D -esign an interactive, learner-oriented and self-directed training sessions
U -nderstand better how to relate, handle, deal and support adults with trust, respect and interest
L -earn to develop the skills of listening, attending, observing and art of questioning
T -arget learning needs of adult learners
S -et a positive teaching-learning atmosphere
