Experiential Learning - (ANSWER)"Kolb - learning through experience
1. Concrete Experience - real-life experiences
2. Observation & reflection - reflecting on real-life experiences
3. Abstract conceptualization - new ideas/understanding as a result of reflection
4. Active experimentation - experiment with new ideas and apply them (concrete) "
Action Learning - (ANSWER)Reg Revan - tackling problems in small groups with the hopes of being able
to solve issues with the support of your team.
Constructivism - (ANSWER)"Learning is more meaningful whenever students can interact with the
concepts they're trying to solve. Experiencing things first hand rather than passively listening.
Examples: Role playing, debating, cooperative learning groups, science labs, etc. "
Behaviorism - (ANSWER)"Specific behavior occurs because of:
1. the environment
2. the reinforcements/consequences set up to encourage/deter the behavior. "
Cognitive Developmental Stage Theory - (ANSWER)"Piaget - the development of the brain occurs
progressively throughout childhood.
4 stages:
1. Sensorimotor (0-2 years) - understanding based upon direct, physical interaction with the
environment. (No object permanence)
2. Preoperational (2-7 years) - pretend play, using symbols to represent an object (language), egocentric -
don't realize other point of views.
3. Concrete operational (7-11 years) - imagining things, conceptualizing, using math, (equal water in
short, fat glass vs. tall, skinny glass)
4. Formal operational (11-15 years) - abstract thinking, moral reasoning"

Vygotsky - (ANSWER)"Culture is an important influence on human development.
Scaffolding is necessary in order for students to learn new, challenging things. "
Cooperative Learning - (ANSWER)Students learn best when they're working together in a group or
individually competing against others to receive awards set out by the teacher.
Sensory stimulation theory - (ANSWER)When the senses are stimulated, effective learning can take
place. Students learn by watching something being done (seeing), and then by listening to something
(hearing). Students learn best when two senses are stimulated.
Gestalt approach/Holistic Learning Theory - (ANSWER)Things should be taught with continuity and
connections between concepts rather than breaking things down into separate independent pieces.
Students should understand context of why they're doing what they're doing. Learn best through
experience.
Humanistic Approach to Learning - (ANSWER)Carl Rogers - an environment must be safe in order for
students to study well. Students learn best when they have a choice in what they want to learn and can
give feedback.
Persuasive Models Social Learning Theory - (ANSWER)be a persuasive model - teachers should
demonstrate how to act in classroom and students should know what to expect from the teacher.
Prior Knowledge - (ANSWER)Combination of one's attitudes, experiences, and previous knowledge. Can
be shaped by home environment and daily activities. Word association, metaphors/analogies are one
way to activate prior knowledge.
Preconceptions - (ANSWER)opinions or conceptions formed before adequate knowledge or experience
has been accessed.

Critical Thinking - (ANSWER)Using deductive or inductive reasoning to solve something.
Creative Thinking - (ANSWER)Process by which we derive a new idea. More likely to happen when
constantly taking in new ideas
Steps to Problem Solving - (ANSWER)1. Identify problem 2. Look for causes to the problem 3. Come up
with as many solutions as possible. 4. Come up with the best way to solve the problem. 5. Finalize how
the problem was solved clearly.
Components of Problem Solving - (ANSWER)"1. given information (i.e., numbers)
2. operators (i.e., long division)
3. a goal (i.e., the solution)."
Bloom's Taxonomy - (ANSWER)In order to build high-level thinking skills, one must first use lower-level
skills in order to build up towards the higher-level skills. The levels are: 1. Knowledge 2. Comprehension
3. Application 4. Analysis 5. Synthesis 6. Evaluation
Cooperative Learning - (ANSWER)Small groups to work in where everyone has a specific role and
everyone is reliant upon everyone for group success.
Direct Instruction - (ANSWER)Teacher talks, students listen. Example of passive learning. May be more
effective in disseminating information quickly as teacher has more control.
Discovery Learning - (ANSWER)Bruner - student centered approach to learning that requires students to
use inductive reasoning to solve problems. Students are learning through their own experiences and
solving problems (asking questions, collecting data, making conclusions, etc.)
Reception learning - (ANSWER)Teacher must structure information properly from a general form leading
into a more specific form that helps students see their own progress.
