  1. Theories of Cognition Dr. Whitt Education Dept Roanoke College

  2. Activation Theory- Anderson • Memories are encoded with associated stimuli in the environment (visual, aural, kinesthetic, olfactory). When presented with any of these stimuli at a later time the associated memory is recalled. Dr. Whitt Education Dept Roanoke College

  3. Activation Theory- Anderson Dr. Whitt Education Dept Roanoke College

  7. Any memories tied to this? Control. Control. You must learn control. Dr. Whitt Education Dept Roanoke College

  8. this? Dr. Whitt Education Dept Roanoke College

  9. Or this? Dr. Whitt Education Dept Roanoke College

  10. How about this? Dr. Whitt Education Dept Roanoke College

  11. Genetic Epistemology: Jean Piaget Pre-operational Concrete Operational Formal Operations sensorimotor 0 3 8 12 Dr. Whitt Education Dept Roanoke College

  12. sensorimotor stage (0-2 years), kinesthetic learning. • preoperation period (3-7 years) is intuitive in nature. • concrete operational stage (8-11 years) is logical but depends upon concrete referents. • formal operations (12-15 years), thinking involves abstractions. Dr. Whitt Education Dept Roanoke College

  13. Constructivist Theory: Jerome Bruner Dr. Whitt Education Dept Roanoke College

  14. experiences each have meaning Dr. Whitt Education Dept Roanoke College

  15. You help them get MORE meaning Dr. Whitt Education Dept Roanoke College

  16. Your understanding….their understanding Dr. Whitt Education Dept Roanoke College

  17. Subsumption Theory:David Ausubel existing knowledge new Dr. Whitt Education Dept Roanoke College

  18. Levels of ProcessingCraik and Lockhart Deep processing Dr. Whitt Education Dept Roanoke College

  26. Multiple Intelligence: Howard Gardner spiritual logical spatial Linguistic Interpersonal musical Body kinesthetic mathematical metacognitive Dr. Whitt Education Dept Roanoke College

  27. Operant Conditioning:B.F. Skinner Behavior is response Dr. Whitt Education Dept Roanoke College

  28. Conditions of Learning:Robert Gagne (1) gain attention (reception) (2) state objective (expectancy) (3) recall prior learning (retrieval) (4) present stimulus (selective perception) (5) guide learning (semantic encoding) (6) elicit performance (responding) (7) give feedback (reinforcement) (8) assess performance (retrieval) (9) enhance retention/transfer (generalization).
