Study Notes

Albert Bandura

  • Introduced Social Learning Theory emphasizing learning through observation (vicarious) and direct experience (enactive).
  • Key elements of observational learning: attention, retention, production, and motivation & reinforcement.
  • Self-efficacy is shaped by four appraisal sources: actual performance, vicarious performance, verbal persuasion, and physiological cues.

Benjamin Bloom

  • Developed Bloom's Taxonomy, a framework for educational objectives across cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains.
  • Cognitive domain includes lower-order thinking skills (LOTS) and higher-order thinking skills (HOTS).

Urie Bronfenbrenner

  • Proposed Ecological Systems Theory, where child development occurs within interconnected systems: microsystem, exosystem, macrosystem, and chronosystem.

Jerome Bruner

  • Established the Discovery Model of Teaching, where learners construct knowledge based on experiences.
  • Emphasized the importance of predisposition to learning, knowledge structure, sequencing, and nature of rewards/punishments.
  • Distinction between qualitative and quantitative learning.

John Comenius

  • Authored "Orbis Pictus," recognized as the first picture book for children.
  • Advocated that early experiences shape a child's development and that education should engage the senses.

John Dewey

  • Promoted democratic education focused on personal experience and individual needs.
  • Advocated for education as a means to foster social change and reform, emphasizing learning through interactions and experimentation.

Erik Erikson

  • Introduced the Psychosocial Theory of Development consisting of eight critical life stages, each with a key conflict (e.g., trust vs. mistrust, identity vs. role confusion).

Sigmund Freud

  • Developed the Psychoanalytic Theory, emphasizing psychosexual stages where children navigate a series of conflicts impacting personality.
  • Stages include oral, anal, phallic, latency, and genital phases.

Friedrich Froebel

  • Known as the "Father of Kindergarten," helped establish systematic early childhood education.
  • Emphasized the significance of play and the role mothers play in child development.

Howard Gardner

  • Proposed the Theory of Multiple Intelligences, recognizing various dimensions of intelligence, including linguistic, logical-mathematical, and kinesthetic.
  • Introduced Theory of Entry Points for learning engagement: narrational, logical, foundational, esthetic, and experimental approaches.

John Locke

  • Suggested the concept of Tabula Rasa (blank slate), proposing that individual experiences shape personality and identity.

Martin Luther

  • Advocated for universal education by translating the Bible into the vernacular, promoting literacy, and establishing schools.

Abraham Maslow

  • Developed the Hierarchy of Needs, illustrating a progression from deficiency needs (survival, safety, belonging, esteem) to being needs (intellectual achievement, aesthetic appreciation, self-actualization).

Maria Montessori

  • Emphasized that children learn through sensory experiences and at their own pace, recognizing 'sensitive periods' crucial for development in areas like language and order.

Ivan Pavlov

  • Founded Classical Conditioning theory, detailing automatic responses to stimuli through experiments (notably with dogs) using unconditioned and conditioned stimuli and responses.

Johann Pestalozzi

  • Promoted education aligned with natural development, focusing on experiences grounded in sensory impressions.

Jean Piaget

  • Studied Cognitive Development, defining stages: sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete operational, and formal operational.
  • Identified factors influencing cognition: maturation, activities, social interactions, and equilibration.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau

  • Advocated for education that respects natural child development, believing children grow according to an internal timetable. Authored "Emile."

Edward Thorndike & B.F. Skinner

  • Established the Law of Effect and Operant Conditioning principles, where behavior is shaped by consequences (satisfaction or avoidance of negative outcomes).

Lev Vygotsky

  • Introduced the Zone of Proximal Development, emphasizing the role of cultural tools in learning and social interaction through imitation, instruction, and collaboration.
