Cognitive Domain

This domain involves the ability to think and process information, encompassing cognitive skills such as remembering, understanding, applying, analyzing, synthesizing, and evaluating.

Affective Domain

This domain focuses on feelings, beliefs, values, and motivations. It's about how we respond emotionally and attitudinally to different situations and experiences.

Psychomotor Domain

This domain involves the ability to use physical skills, coordination, motor skills, and sensory skills. It's about learning to perform physical actions and movements.

Bloom's Taxonomy

Bloom's Taxonomy is a hierarchical classification system that outlines various levels of cognitive processes. Learners are expected to master lower levels before progressing to higher levels.

Study Notes

Learning Environment: The Library Perspective

  • Learning environment is a significant part of the learning process, crucial for cognitive, psychomotor, and affective learning outcomes. It's important to understand this role in educational development, particularly in changing social contexts like Nigeria.
  • Learning is fundamental to society, with information and knowledge key elements. A robust library's collections, accessibility, and resource use are vital for effective teaching, learning, and research.
  • Learning is defined as a relatively permanent change in behavior, resulting from activity, practice, experience, or environmental exposure. It's not just temporary changes like sleep deprivation, fatigue, or drug/alcohol use.
  • Behaviourists view learning as an associational connection between stimulus and response; learners are passive reactors to external factors.
  • Cognitive theorists believe learners are active participants with inherent capabilities; learning is a process of acquiring, understanding and applying skills, knowledge, and concepts.
  • Learning is a complex, ongoing process, often not immediately apparent. It's not just task completion, but also about developing skills, attitudes, and knowledge. Learning is a social activity that involves building connections.
  • Learning is intellectual, social, and emotional, often happening by design and by chance.
  • Learning is crucial for empowerment, freeing individuals from ignorance and enhancing intellectual capacity. This learned knowledge allows for addressing everyday problems. It also promotes understanding of complex issues through methods like bibliotherapy (using written materials to promote solution to problems).
  • Blooms' taxonomy of cognitive domains includes Knowledge, Comprehension, Application, Analysis, Synthesis, and Evaluation for progressing, hierarchical learning.
  • There are two broad levels of learning; Passive learning (receiving information through memorization and repetition) and Active learning (engaging with the material through questioning, application, synthesis, analysis, & evaluation).
  • Factors influencing learning include internal factors like previous experiences, knowledge, readiness, personality, and physical condition. External factors include the environment, time, task characteristics, cues, incentive, and feedback. 

Active and Passive Learning

  • Passive learning involves receiving and memorizing information.
  • Active learning involves actively engaging with and applying knowledge.
  • Active learning methods include: attending class, taking notes, reading assignments, listening in class, asking questions, recording accurate notes, attempting problems, and using all class time.

Factors influencing learning

  • Previous learning experience
  • Readiness/maturation
  • Personality
  • Physical factors (e.g., fatigue, defects)
  • Anxiety

Library Rules and Regulations

  • Registered users only can use library resources.
  • Library/student ID is needed.
  • Books are due on time.
  • Noise is prohibited.
  • Eating/drinking is prohibited.
  • Bags are checked.

Library Crimes

  • Library crimes include theft, noise making, impersonation, mutilation of materials, and other inappropriate behaviors.

Prevention of Library Crimes

  • Liberal loan policies
  • Electronic security and surveillance
  • Library orientation and user education
  • Discipline measures 
  • Resource provision
