    Study Notes

    Edgar Dale's Cone of Experience

    • Dale's Cone of Experience illustrates different learning experiences, moving from concrete to abstract.
    • Learning experiences are categorized as: learning by doing, learning through observation, learning through abstractions.

    3 Categories of Learning

    • Learning by Doing: Hands-on, active learning experiences. Students participate in practical, imaginative tasks.
    • Observational Learning: Learning by watching others perform tasks. Albert Bandura's social learning theory (1977) highlights this. Learning from models and observing behaviors.
    • Abstraction: Simplifying complex challenges by focusing on essential points and removing unnecessary elements.

    Cone of Experience

    • Dale's Cone shows a continuum, from most concrete (bottom) to most abstract (top).
    • The most concrete experiences involve direct sensory interaction (seeing, touching).
    • As you progress up the cone, experiences become more symbolic (visual and verbal symbols).

    Verbal and Visual Symbols

    • Verbal symbols (words, speech) are highly abstract.
    • Visual symbols (charts, maps) represent concepts.

    Levels of Experience (in the Cone)

    • Direct Purposeful Experiences: Hands-on activities with high sensory input. (Lowest level)
    • Contrived Experiences: Representative models and mock-ups. These imitate real experiences closely.
    • Dramatised Experiences: Role-playing, simulating realistic situations. Experiences shift learners from observers to participants.
    • Demonstrations: Visual explanations of facts, ideas, or processes. Can use pictures, drawings, film, etc. to clarify.
    • Exhibits: Sensory and participatory experiences, often in museums or educational settings.
    • Study Trips: Observational experiences in real-world, immersive settings.
    • Motion Pictures and Educational Television: Processing events through recordings.
    • Recordings, Radio and Still Pictures: Includes photos, podcasts, audio files.
    • Visual Symbols: Charts, maps, graphs and diagrams.
    • Verbal Symbols: Represent objects using words or speech.

    SAMR Model

    • Stages of technology integration, from simple substitution to transforming learning.
    • Substitution: Technology replaces traditional tools without altering activities.
    • Augmentation: Technology enhances existing activities.
    • Modification: Technology significantly changes the nature of the activity.
    • Redefinition: Technology enables entirely new activities and tasks previously impossible.

    Bloom's Digital Taxonomy

    • An expanded version of Bloom's Taxonomy, incorporating technology.
    • Aligns levels of cognitive skills (Remembering, Understanding, Applying, Analyzing, Evaluating, Creating) with digital tools.

    ASSURE Model

    • Focuses on teacher-centered instruction.
    • Steps to develop technology-enhanced lessons: analyzing learners, stating objectives, selecting methods, utilizing media and materials, requiring learner participation, and evaluating and revising.
