  8. Theoretical Approaches • Behaviorist Approach • Cognitive Approach

  9. Cognitive Approach • Explain relationship between Instruction and Outcome by describing intervening cognitive processes and structures • CHALLENGE: to devise methods of study that allow us to make correct inferences about internal processes and states in the learner Instruction Learning Process Learning Outcome Performance Outcome Learner Characteristics

  10. Theoretical Approaches • Behaviorist Approach • Cognitive Approach • Contextual Approach

  11. Contextual Approach • Recognizes that the context within which learning takes place is a contributing factor of influence Instruction as intended Instruction as implemented Learning Process Learning Outcome Performance Outcome Learner Characteristics
