MAED - THE
Behaviorism
• It is confined to observable and
measurable behavior.
• Learning is defined by the outward
expression of new behaviors and
context-independent.
• Biological basis for
learning.
• Focuses on observable
behaviors.

• It is about reflexes. • It is about

Behaviorism in the Classroom
• Rewards and Punishments
• Responsibility for student learning
rests squarely with the teacher.
• Lecture-Based and Highly
Structured
Cognitivism
• Grew in response to
Behaviorism.
• Knowledge is stored cognitively
as symbols.
• Learning is the process of
connecting symbols in a
meaningful and memorable way.
• Studies focused on the mental
processes that facilitate symbol
connection.

Cognitivism in the Classroom
• Inquiry-Oriented Projects
• Provide opportunities for
the testing of hypotheses.
• Curiosity is encouraged.
• Stage Scaffholding
Constructivism
• Grew out of and in response to
Cognitivism and was framed around
Metacognition.
• Knowledge is actively constructed.
• Learning is:
• A search for meaning by the learner.
• Contextualized
• An Inherently Social Activity
• Dialogic and Recursive
• The Responsibility of the Learner
Constructivism in the Classroom
• Journaling
• Experiential Activities
• Personal Focus
• Collaborative and
Cooperative Learning
Experientialism
• Process of making meaning out of a
direct experience
• Learning by doing.
• It emphasized the process of
learning and not on the product.
Experientialism Methods
• Fieldtrips
• Narratives
• Conducting Experiments
• Simulations
• Games
• Storytelling
• Focused Imaging
• Field Observations
• Role Playing
• Model Building
• Surveys
Social and Contextual
• Learning does not occur solely within the
learner, but in the group and community in
which they work
• Learning is a shared process which takes place
through observing, working together and being
part of a larger group, which includes
colleagues of varying levels of experience, able
to stimulate each other’s development.
• In this view, rather like cognitivism, individuals
only learn from more competent others but the
emphasis is now on being part of a larger
system
Social and Contextual
• Open forum
• Group discussion
• Research studies
