3 Main Learning Theories:
Behaviorism
Concerned with the response - how do we get the desired response?
Not concerned with how they understood or their deeper thoughts, just response / results
Examples: Classroom management, psychomotor skills
Cognitiveism
Concerned with HOW people learn - how is the stimulus received, stored, responded too? What happens between stimulus and response?
Constructivism
The meaning of knowledge is all in the mind of the learner.
What is the effect of individual experiences on the learning?
How can learning be enhanced, how can you achieve a common set of knowledge from people with different sets of experiences?
