1. How would you define the term meaningful reception learning”?

I believed that learners learn best when the new material being taught can be anchored into the
learners' existing cognitive information. Students are regarded as the central focus of the
teaching-learning process, with teachers serving as facilitators. When new information is related
to prior knowledge, it results in meaningful learning.

How is new information likely to be added to an existing structure according to meaningful

learning?

Meaningful learning, in my opinion, entails comprehending how all of the components of a

larger concept fit together. This type of learning sticks with students for the rest of their lives.
Meaningful learning is active, constructive, and long-lasting, but most importantly, it allows
students to participate fully in the learning process.

What causes forgetting” based upon meaningful learning?

Missing events may be interpreted to fill in missing information during story encoding or
knowledge discovery, and events may be reordered to correspond to a real-time sequence. Many
studies have shown that listeners have little control over the retrieval strategies used during recall
of narrative information; even when listeners are instructed to reproduce texts word for word,
they cannot do so if the text contains certain types of failures or certain sequences of events.
They forget things because schema and experience are constantly added and changed.

What are differences between rote learning and meaningful learning?

Repeating information until it is remembered is a common feature of rote learning. Because they
are unable to relate new information to prior knowledge, learners frequently resort to rote
memorization. Meaningful learning is distinguished by the ability to connect new information to
prior knowledge.
