2. Consider two basic learning theories and principles of teaching and discuss how to create
a synergy among these theories / principles and educational technology to provoke the
most effective teaching-learning. Cite an example.(10pts)
Quality teaching and learning is the outcome of the interplay of many forces.
These include learning theories and principles, educational technology and
content as related to the characteristics of growth and development. It takes
intelligent decision to be able to integrate, coordinate and synchronize their
proven contributions to provoke the most effective teaching-learning.
Synergy is compounded words taken from synchronize and energy which
can be stated also as synchronized energy. The term is rather long though so some
parts are clipped to come up with the new term, synergy. This implies that energy
comes from various sources or factors which are made to act simultaneously upon
a certain teaching and learning situation. This has been taken to mean that the
effect of the individual factors or sources becomes more pronounced and felt if
they are in operation at the same time rather than if they act singly one after the
other. This is in line with Gestalt Psychology, which states that the sum of the
whole is greater than the sum of aggregate parts.
A. Constructivist Theory
This theory underscored that learning is an active process where
learners acquire and construct new ideas or concepts based on their past or
current knowledge and experiences (Brunner, 1986 cited by Madarcos, 2003).
Individual learners make new choices about what ideas or concepts they
should accept to fit into their established views of work, play, politics,
business, occupations, values and relationships.
The previous knowledge, concepts and views of students about an issue or
issues are the starting point of learning.
To create a synergy of basic learning theories and educational technology,
teachers should be grounded with specific pedagogical approaches and
strategies
B. Cognitive Learning Theory
This was popularized by Piaget. The term cognitive comes from the
Latin word cognoscere, which means the act or process of knowing. Cognition
therefore involves the higher mental processes like thinking, reasoning,
judging, inferring, interpreting, classifying and the like.
Principle of Creativity and Innovation
This refers to the ability to produce an original concept or idea and
translate it to some forms of expression. When some aspects are changed to
pave the way for the introduction of new aspects, the original piece is
transformed to something new. Creativity is shown in this situation.
Creativity is a special talent, which most students and pupils have.
These are just waiting to be developed and appreciated. Give students the
chance to produce some projects involving educational technology.
Principle of Discovery
This is what psychologist’s term as the “Aha” experience. Students are
elated at the thought of being able to discover by themselves the solutions to
the problems related to their topics and assignments. They feel so
accomplished if they are able to discover a process, a relationship or a pattern
of behavior with the least assistance from their teacher. This is a situation
where genuine learning happens. The cognitive and affective states of the
students are being involved and so the impact is very strong.
With ICT as tools for learning, students can be afforded with limitless
discoveries. Aside from the vast information that can be gathered from the
web, they can also get vast presentation formats in software which can
enhance their learning. They may learn to collaborate with their counterparts
in the world thru chat or e-mail. They can access the works of others and learn
from them. They can also form a network and be a part of the communities of
learning.
According to one of the principles in the selection and use of teaching strategies, the
more senses that are involved in learning, the more and the better the learning will be but
it does not mean that concrete experience is the only effective experience that educators
should use in transferring knowledge to the learner. Like what was mentioned above, the
experiences in each stages can be mixed and are interrelated thus, a balance must be
achieved between concrete and abstract experiences in order to cater the and address all
the need of the learner in all the domains of development and in order to help each
learner in their holistic development.
