- Self-concept (self-directed). 2. Builds on experience. 3. Readiness to learn (social roles), 4. Orientation to learning (problem centered) 5. Motivation to learn (internally motivated)
Definition of Knowles Self Concept
self-direction.
def Knowles Adult Learner Experience
Adult Learner Experience: Accumulated life experiences become a valuable resource for learning.
def Knowles Readiness to Learn
social roles.
def Knowle’s Orientation to Learning
problem-centered
def Knowle’s Motivation to Learn
Internal motivation
def andragogy
Developed by Malcolm Knowles, this theory focuses on adult learning, emphasizing the importance of self-directed and experiencial learning, which are key aspects of the learniing pathways.
def motivational theories
Theories like self-determination theory (by Deci and Ryan) and expectancy-value theory (by ecles and wigfield) explain how motivation impacts learning, relevant to how learning pathways can be designed to enhance learner motivation.
def cognitive load theory
Developed by John Sweller, this theory focuses on how instructional design can be optimized to manage the amount of information learners are processing, a consideration crucial in designing effective learning pathways
def constructivist learning theory
This theory, advocated by scholars like jean pieget and lev Vygotsky, suggests that learners construct knowledge through experiences and reflection, a a process facilitated by structured learning pathways. (your coat hanger idea!)
def experiential learning theory
proposed by David kolb, this theory emphasizes the importance of experience in learning processing, aligning with the practical application and skill development aspects of learning pathways. In other words, learning by doing.
What is expectancy value theory?
If they expect that they can, they’ll do better. If they value the task, they’ll do better
What is social cognitive theory?
Our learning is an interplay between a person, environment and behavior. We validate our understanding with others and observe others. Social feedback is also part of this.
Define learning
A process that leads to change, which occurs as a result of experience and increases the potential for improved performance and future learning
Is learning a product or a process?
process
Learning involves changes in what that unfolds over time?
knowledge, beliefs, behaviors, or attitudes
Is learning active or passive?
Active, learners learn. it’s not something done to them
motivation is the process whereby…
…goal-oriented activities are instagated and sustained
what is the ARCS model of motivational design?
Attention: does the activty keep the learner’s attention.
Relevance: is it relevant to the learner’s world?
Confidence: does the learner feel like they an succeed?
Satisfaction: Does the learner feel good about the learning they accomplished?
How does “theory of planned behavior” apply to CE?
intent to change behavior precedes observable change. intent to change is influenced by attitudes, beliefs, motivation, subjective and social norms, and perceived control of the situation.
Name the six stages of change as developed by Prochaska (developed for smoking cessation)
Pre-contemplation
contemplation
preparation
action
maintenance
termination
what is pre-contemplative? (stages of change)
learner is unaware that change is needed
