CHSE UPDATED ACTUAL EXAM QUESTIONS AND
CORRECT ANSWERS
Question 1.
Social Learning (cognitive) Theory (4 principles) Bandura 97
ANSWER
Learning Theory
Bandura
Self-efficacy -perception of self-based on 4 principles
1. mastery experience (hx of learner success)
2. vicarious experiences (observed successful behaviors)
3. verbal persuasion- (telling someone they'll be successful)
4. physiologic states (gut feeling of success)
- Role modeling behavior for learners is important
- feedback is important
reciprocal determinism: world and behavior cause each other
Question 2.
Constructivism
ANSWER
Learning Theory-most used and fits well for simulation
Theorists: Piaget, Vygotsky
- Active learning theory
- Learning builds on previous experience-connects unknot to known
- Learning is actively constructed through interaction with environment
- Marked by reflection
- learner focused
- doing is learning
- the goal is problem-solving, reasoning, critical thinking and active/reflective use of knowledge
faculty role is coaching and facilitating
Question 3.
Experiential Learning Theory-concepts (4)
ANSWER
- Kolb
- Four main concepts:
, 1. Concrete experience (CE)
2. Abstract conceptualization (AC)
3. Reflective observation (RO)
4. Active experimentation (AE)
Question 4.
Bloom's Taxonomy- cognitive (6)
ANSWER
Hierarchy of Learning:
2.1 Knowledge- Remembering (memory)- repetition
2.2 Comprehension/ Understanding (knowledge, clarification and explanation)-explain,
identify, locate
2.3 Application/ Applying: (clin decision- interpret, operate, practice, demonstrate and choose)
2.4 Analysis/ Analyzing- categorize experiment, question, compare, criticize
2.5 Synthesis/ Creating: productive thinking (create, design, develop, formulate, manage,
organize, plan) -- novelty
2.6 Evaluation: Appraise, argue, assess, attach, compare, defend, predict, -- make a diagnosis. -
- judgement
, Question 5.
Essentialism
ANSWER
- Bagley, Hirsh
- Traditional Learning approach
- knowledge passed from educator to the learner (teacher directed)
- physical world is the true world
Question 6.
Behaviorism
ANSWER
Learning Theory
Theorists: Pavlov, Watson, Skinner, Bandura
1. Learning is observable thru behavior
2. Learning is reinforced by response
3. Behavior modification leads to control
4. Token economies may be used for classroom management
5. Instructional objectives guide learning
6. Learning is shaped by others
7. Learning is teacher centered
Stimulus response is the basis for learning-- modification of behavior --> control - positive
reinforcement is used to encourage acceptable behavior
CONs:
1. Does not explain intrinsic motivation of the learner
2. All learning is not dispayed in behavior
3. By predetermining objectives or outcomes the depth and breadth of experience my be
squelched
.
