Committed to
MEANINGFUL LEARNING
If the traditional learning environment gives
stress to rote learning and simple memorization,
meaningful learning gives focus to new experience
that departs from the learning of a sequence of words
but gives attention to meaning.

spc | COLLEGE OF EDUCATION

Committed to
MEANINGFUL LEARNING
It assumes that:
- Students already have prior knowledge that is relevant
to new learning.
- Students are willing to perform class work to find
connection between what they already know and what
they can learn.

spc | COLLEGE OF EDUCATION

Committed to
DISCOVERY LEARNING
This is differentiated from reception (meeting point
of meaningful and discovery learning) in which ideas
are presented to students in a well-organized way, such
as through detailed set of instructions to complete an
experiment.

spc | COLLEGE OF EDUCATION

Committed to
DISCOVERY LEARNING
In discovery learning, students perform tasks to uncover
what is to be learned. New ideas and new decisions are
generated in the learning process, regardless of the need to
move on and depart from the structured lesson previously set.
In here, it is important that the students become personally
engaged and NOT subjected by the teacher.

AND DISCOVERY LEARNING

Committed to
 GENERATIVE LEARNING
- Active learners who attend to learning events and
generate meaning from this experience and draw
inferences thereby creating a personal model or
explanation to the new experience in the context of
existing knowledge.

- Generative learning activities such as in writing

paragraph, summarizing, developing answers and
questions,drawing pictures,creating paragraph, tittles,
organizing ideas/ concepts and others.

Committed to
 CONSTRUCTIVISM
The learner builds a personal understanding through appropriate
learning activities and a good learning environment.
The most accepted constructivism principles are:
- Learning consists in what a person can actively assemble for
himself and not what he can just ask from someone else.
- Role of learning is to help the individual live to his personal
world.

spc | COLLEGE OF EDUCATION

Committed to
 IMPLICATION OF
- CONSTRUCTIVISM
The learner is directly responsible for learning. He creates
personal understanding and transforms information into
knowledge. The teacher plays an indirect role by modeling
effective learning, assisting, facilitating, and encouraging learners.

- The context of meaningful learning consists in the learner

“connecting” his school activity with real life.

- The purpose of education is acquisition of practical and personal

knowledge, not abstract or universal truths.
