Reflection of Learning Theories

Today, we will share with you the reflection of what we have learned today. They are all theories and we do hope you will enjoy them. There are 3 categories of theories, they are: Behaviourism, Cognitivism and Constructivism. We will give the points pertaining the 3 theories we have mentioned.

Behaviorism:
  • Came from Skinner and Pavlov.
  • We learn by reinforcing ourselves.
  • We also learn from stimulus and respond.
  • Each one of us has the so-called black box, it is actually our mind. The black refers to the emptiness of our mind so we need to fill the emptiness by acquiring knowledge.

Cognitivism:
  • This one came from Piaget and Bruner.
  • This theory believes we have to acquire our own knowledge.
  • We acquire knowledge by memorizing.
  • We need knowledge in order to solve problem.
  • In this theory, we have something called mental schemata.
Constructivism:
  • Proposed by Vygotsky.
  • This theory said we need to discover knowledge by ourselves.
  • It comes naturally. Like Selena Gomez's song.
  • This learning style is called experiential which came from the word experience. So, basically we learn from our experience throughout our lives.

Clicky!
