Vygotsky • Vygotsky’slearning theory could be applied to distance learning, namely use of the Internet (using a social construct), cooperation and reflection (Choi, J. & Johnson, S., 2005; Fokides, E. & Tsolakidis, C., 2008). • Socialization, an aspect of blended learning, is also support by Vygotsky’s theory of learning as a socio-cultural practice (Nussbaum, et. al., 2009). searchenginepeople.com
Vygotsky • Irlbec, et.al (2006) found that on-line education programs also provide scaffolding (support) for the teacher and learners. • Students blogging without some sort of scaffolding, such as instructor intervention, tend to stray from academic pursuits, according to a study of 309 students at a woman’s college, according to a study by Leslie & Murphy (2008). chinamachinerymanufacturer.com
Piaget’s learning theory • Piaget’s interaction with others and learning objects: • High-reusable learning objects; • Avatars; • Intelligent agents; • Instructional animations; • Drills spongebob.nick.com
Information Processing Theory • Information Processing Theory is not new to the concept of computer education. Miller (2002) stated that in the 1960s, it was argued that people’s logical capabilities could be simulated by a computer program, with robots using artificial intelligence playing chess or other games, serving drinks, etc., the past domain of humans. homotron.net
Information Processing Theory • According to van Merriënboer & Ayres (2005), automating schema construction through electronic means can free working memory. • From an instructional design perspective, well-designed training programs should encourage schema automation for those aspects of a task that is consistent across problem situations.
