1. How could you relate the Cone of Experience to the teaching-learning process with the
levels identifies by Bruner’s three-tiered model of learning? (4 points)
The cone of experience is about what percentage of learning each individual absorbs
information from difficult sources. Bruner’s model of learning is about how to use children’s
natural curiosity to let them learn on their own with the teacher providing only the subject
matter and guiding them back on course if they stray away from the correct answer. The
cone of experience might be useful for teachers who use Bruner’s model to choose what
projects the students would use to teach themselves.

would you explain its potential use in instruction ad where will you categorize it on the
Cone? (4 points)

they have potential to increase students’ motivation, connect students to many information
sources, support active in-class and out-class learning environments, and let instructors to
allocate more time for facilitation.
4.What is the significance of being aware of a theoretical framework (i.e. TPACK, SAMR, and
Bloom’s Revised Taxonomy) in preparing to become an effective teacher. (4 points)
Being aware of such a model is likely to compel you to focus on structuring curriculum
around that model, rather than around the material. In short, analytical frameworks tend
to distance teachers from both the material they're teaching and the students. TPACK is
an essential part of the education system today as it incorporates the growing demand
on the use of technology in the classroom as well as continuing the focus on the
content and how we teach it. Therefore it sets up education for the future as well as
setting up the students for their future.
