Study Notes
Learning Theories and Educational Concepts
-
Bruner's Three Modes of Representation:
- Enactive (0-1 years): Action-based learning.
- Iconic (1-6 years): Image-based learning.
- Symbolic (7+ years): Code/symbol-based learning (e.g., language).
Cognitive, Affective, and Psychomotor Domains
- Cognitive Domain (Bloom & Anderson): Categorizes learning objectives based on levels of cognitive thinking, from lower-order to higher-order (LOTS to HOTS).
- Affective Domain (Krathwohl, Bloom, Masia): Focuses on affective outcomes like attitudes & emotions in learning.
- Psychomotor Domain (Simpson, Harrow): Deals with practical skills and physical movement involved in learning.
Dale's Cone of Experience
- Illustrates various learning experiences, from concrete to abstract.
Erikson's Psychosocial Stages
- Trust vs. Mistrust (0-12 months): Developing trust in caregivers.
- Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt (1-3 years): Gaining independence and self-control.
- Initiative vs. Guilt (3-6 years): Initiating activities and taking responsibility.
- Industry vs. Inferiority (6-12 years): Developing a sense of competence and accomplishment.
- Identity vs. Role Confusion (12-18 years): Forming a personal identity.
- Intimacy vs. Isolation (early 20s-early 40s): Establishing close relationships.
- Generativity vs. Stagnation (40s-60s): Contributing to society and future generations.
- Integrity vs. Despair (mid 60s-death): Reflecting on life and accepting accomplishments.
Piaget's Cognitive Development Theory
- (briefly mentioned, need more details for proper notes about stages)
Computer Generations
- (briefly mentioned, need more details for proper notes about stages).
Student Misconduct Goals & Taxonomy
- Attention-seeker: Wants teacher's attention.
- Revenge: Seeks retribution.
- Power-seeker: Seeks control.
- Inadequacy: Feels incompetent.
- Withdrawal: Withdraws from learning.
Kohlberg's Theory of Moral Development
- (briefly mentioned, need more details for proper notes about stages / levels).
Principles of Education
- Hedonism: Pleasure-seeking.
- Double Effect: Actions with both good and bad consequences.
- Formal Cooperation: Cooperation with a clear purpose..
- Lesser Evil: Choosing the less detrimental choice.
- Material Cooperation: Cooperation without intention.
Philosophies of Education
- Essentialism: Focus on fundamental skills (3 R's).
- Perennialism: Emphasis on enduring ideas and great works.
- Progressivism: Learning based on experience and problem-solving.
- Existentialism: Emphasis on individual choice and responsibility.
- Behaviorism: Focus on observable behaviors and conditioning.
- Constructivism: Learning through actively constructing meaning.
- Reconstructionism: Addressing social issues in education.
- Humanism: Promoting student potential and self-discovery.
- Idealism: Focusing on mental concepts and ideas .
- Pragmatism: Emphasis on practical application and experience.
- Realism: Focus on tangible things and the real world.
- Utilitarianism: Choosing the most beneficial action.
- Social Reconstructionism: Focus on social change through education.
Aims for Eras in Education
- Pre-Spanish: Survival and obedience.
- Spanish: Christian principles.
- American: Democratic ideals and way of life.
- Commonwealth: Moral character and organization.
- Japanese: Progress and development.
Measures of Central Tendency
- Mean: Average (Sensitive to outliers).
- Median: Middlemost value (Less sensitive to outliers which is better).
- Mode: Most frequent value.
Measures of Variability
- Range: Difference between highest and lowest scores.
- Standard Deviation: Dispersion of scores around the mean.
Measures of Relative Position
- Percentile: Score divided into 100 equal parts.
- Decile: Score divided into 10 equal parts.
- Quartile: Score divided into 4 equal parts.
- Stanine: Score divided into 9 ranges.
Test Statistics
- Difficulty Index: Indicates difficulty of a test question. ([0.0-0.20] Very difficult, [0.21-0.40] Difficult, [0.41-0.60] Moderately difficult, [0.61-0.80] Easy, [0.81-1.00] Very easy).
- Discrimination Index: Evaluates if a test item differentiates high-performing from low-performing students. (Positive = Good, Negative = Bad, Zero = Bad, should be rejected)
- Validity: Measures what it intends to measure.
- Reliability: Consistency of measurements. Reliable is always valid.
- Criterion-Referenced: Scores based on specific learning objectives.
- Norm-Referenced: Scores compared to a group's performance.
- Skewed Distribution: Positive (Left-Skewed): Lower scores more prominent; Negative (Right-Skewed): Higher scores more prominent.
- Horn/Halo Effect: General impressions affecting ratings/judgments.
Assessment Types
- Traditional Assessment: Primarily uses paper-and-pencil methods.
- Authentic Assessment: Examines real-life application.
- Assessment for Learning: Used to guide instruction before or during teaching.
- Assessment of Learning: Evaluates learning after teaching.
-
Assessment Types (Diagnostic, Formative, Summative)
- Diagnostic: Identifies strengths and weaknesses before instruction.
- Formative: Used during instruction to monitor progress.
- Summative: Used at the end of instruction to evaluate performance.
- Objective Assessment: Often, using multiple-choice questions
- Subjective Assessment: May include writing essays/projects
Purposive Communication
- Component of Purposive Communication: Language, system, grammar, phonology, phonetics
- Language: Major component: sound, meaning, grammar, & vocabulary.
