  3. Learning Theories • Social Networking • Interactive Learning Theory • Social Development Theory • Multiple Intelligences • Bloom’s Taxonomy

  4. Social Networking & Technology • Bandura’s Social Learning Theory: • Example – The most common (and pervasive) examples of social learning situations are television commercials.

  5. Interactive Learning Theory • CSCL (computer supported collaborative learning): • “CSCL aims at providing both an authentic environment and multi-perspectives that can tie in students' prior knowledge.

  6. Social Development Theory & Technology • “Vygotsky's Social Development Theory rests on two main principles: • The More Knowledgeable Other (MKO) refers to anyone who has a better understanding or a higher ability level than the learner, with respect to a particular task, process, or concept. • The Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) is the place where a student can perform a task under adult guidance or with peer collaboration that could not be achieved alone.

  7. Multiple Intelligences & Technology • Dr. Howard Gardner identified/theorized different styles of learning in eight distinct categories/intelligences: • Logical/mathematical • Interpersonal • Intrapersonal • Musical • Kinesthetic • Naturalist • Linguistic • Visual/spatial

  8. Bloom’s Taxonomy & Technology The Six Levels of Bloom's Taxonomy • Knowledge • Comprehension • Application • Analysis • Synthesis • Evaluation

  9. Levels of Interactivity • Basic text and imagery • Audio • Video • User interaction • User immersion • Multiple user interaction • Real time simulations • Synchronous (multiple user) simulations

  10. Linear and Non-linear Design • Linear design is sequential: step-by-step processes such as a math problem. • Non-linear design is developed so that the user can start anywhere in the process.

  11. Linking Theory and Practice • Learning theory needs to be linked to design. • Evaluation of technology should be linked to a variety of learning theories. • Rubrics need to be created for use by teachers and schools to evaluate technologies. • Emerging technologies should be explored and cost evaluations need to take place. • Interactivity needs analysis must take place in order to account for individual differences.
