Cognitive Apprenticeship
What is Cognitive Apprenticeship?
1. Cognitive apprenticeship is a theory of the process where a master of a skill teaches that skill
to an apprentice. This theory holds that masters of a skill often fail to take into account the
implicit processes involved in carrying out complex skills when they are teaching novices.
2. To combat these tendencies, cognitive apprenticeships are designed, among other things,
to bring these tacit processes into the open, where students can observe, enact, and practice
them with help from the teacher (Collins, Brown, & Newman, 1987, p. 4).
3. By using processes such as modeling and coaching, cognitive apprenticeships also support
the three stages of skill acquisition described in the expertise literature: the cognitive stage,
the associative stage, and the autonomous stage (Anderson, 1983; Fitts & Posner, 1967).
4. In the cognitive stage, learners develop declarative understanding of the skill. In the
associative stage, mistakes and misinterpretations learned in the cognitive stage are detected
and eliminated while associations between the critical elements involved in the skill are
strengthened. Finally, in the autonomous stage, the learners skill becomes honed and
perfected until it is executed at an expert level (Anderson, 2000).
5. Like traditional apprenticeships, in which the apprentice learns a trade such as tailoring or
woodworking by working under a master teacher, cognitive apprenticeships allow the master
to model behaviors in a real-world context with cognitive modeling (Bandura, 1997).
6. By listening to the master explain exactly what she is doing and thinking as she models the
skill, the apprentice can identify relevant behaviors and develop a conceptual model of the
processes involved. The apprentice then attempts to imitate those behaviors with the master
observing and providing coaching. Coaching provides assistance at the most critical level
the skill level just beyond what the learner/apprentice could accomplish by herself.
Two uses this model is best suited for:
1. Training of highly time-consuming and skill-based craftsmanship.
Discovery Learning
What is Discovery Learning?
1. Discovery Learning is a method of inquiry-based instruction. Discovery learning is a
constructivist based approach to education. It is supported by the work of learning
theorists and psychologists Jean Piaget, Jerome Bruner, and Seymour Papert.
2. Discovery learning takes place in problem solving situations where the learner draws on
his own experience and prior knowledge. Discovery learning is a method of instruction
through which students interact with their environment by exploring and manipulating
objects, wrestling with questions and controversies, or performing experiments.
3. Critiques of Discovery Learning: While discovery learning is very popular, it is often
used inappropriately to teach novices (Kirschner et al, 2006). Learners should be given
some direct instruction first... and then later be allowed to apply what they have learned.
Two uses this model is best suited for:
1. Never before explored field, such as establishing new theory in astronomy, or detecting
gravity waves.
2. Front line of scientific research on various subject fields.
Two uses this model is least suited for:
1. Traditional basic education.
2. Professional business and military training which require time and cost efficiency.
Example of an instructional task appropriate for this model:
How could we utilize the finding of gravitational waves in applied science?
