 What Humanistic theory is?
Humanistic theory as applied to learning is
largely constructivist and emphasizes cognitive
and affective processes. It addresses people’s
capabilities and potentialities as they make
choices and seek control over their lives.
 Theorists

Abaraham
Carl Rogers
Maslow
Abraham Maslow
( April 1, 1908 – June 8, 1970)

Maslow was a psychology.

professor at Brandeis
University, Brooklyn College,
New School for Social
Research and Columbia
University.
He stressed the importance of focusing
on the positive qualities in people, as
opposed to treating them as a "bag of
symptoms.“
A Review of General Psychology survey,
published in 2002, ranked Maslow as the
tenth most cited psychologist of the 20th
century.
 Humanistic interpretation of
motivation emphasize such
intrinsik sources of motivation
as a person’s needs for “self-
actualization”
(masslow, 1970,1968)
 Physiological
Physiological needs, the lowest on the
hierarchy, concern necessities such as
food, air, and water. These needs are
satisfied for most people most of the
time, but they become potent when they
are not satisfied.
 Safety
• which involve environmental security,
dominate during emergencies
• Safety needs are also manifested in activities
such as saving money, securing a job, etc.
 Love/Belonging
• involve having intimate relationships with
others, belonging to groups, and having close
friends and acquaintances
 Esteem
Esteem needs comprise self-esteem and esteem
from others. These needs manifest themselves
in high achievement, independence, competent
work, and recognition from others
 Self-Actualization

• Self-actualization manifests
itself in the need to
become everything that
one is capable of
becoming.
 Aplication
• Maslow’s hierarchy can help teachers
understand students and create an
environment to enhance learning. It is
unrealistic to expect students to show interest
in classroom activities if they have
physiological or safety deficiencies.

 Rogers and Education
• Rogers discussed education in his book
Freedom to Learn.
• Rogers (1969) believed people have a natural
potentiality for learning and are eager to
learn.
• Rogers felt that learning that can be
taught to others was of little value.
• Meaningful, experiential learning has
relevance to the whole person, has
personal involvement, is selfinitiated, is
pervasive, and is evaluated by the
learner.
• job of teachers is to act as facilitators
who establish a classroom climate
oriented toward significant learning
and help students clarify their goals.
 Application Roger
• Rogers’s theory has seen wide
psychotherapeutic application
• The focus on helping people strive for
challenges and maximize their potential is
important for motivation and learning. The
theory is developed only in general terms and
the meanings of several constructs are unclear
