    • Instructor: Lynou R. Zacal, Ph.D.

    Objective

    • Students will discuss cognitive principles correctly through class recitation.

    Instructional Design Framework (IDF)

    • A flexible, adaptable structure ensuring effective teaching and learning
    • Allows teachers to use creativity confidently

    Four Key Instructional Principles (4Ls)

    • Inclusive
    • Ideational
    • Integrative
    • Innovative

    Four Key Aspects of Instructional Design (4Cs)

    • Context
    • Connection
    • Collaboration
    • Creativity

    Four Essential Facets of Learning (4Es)

    • Engage
    • Explore
    • Experience
    • Empathize

    Cognitive Principle 1

    • Learners learn new ideas by referencing ideas they already know.
    • Well-sequenced curriculum ensures prior knowledge for mastering new ideas.
    • Analogies connect new ideas to existing ones, but teachers must elaborate and emphasize crucial similarities.
    • This principle highlights the integration of the Instructional Framework within the Science of Learning.

    Cognitive Principle 2

    • Information is withdrawn from memory as it happened.
    • Assignments requiring explanation or material organization focus learners' attention on the meaning.
    • Stories and mnemonics help learners grasp challenging content.
    • This involves Engage and Experience aspects of the IDF.

    Cognitive Principle 3

    • Each subject area has facts crucial for long-term memory, aiding problem-solving.
    • Teachers should teach different sets of facts at different ages; math facts and letter-sound pairings are prominent in early elementary grades.
    • Memory for math facts is more reliable than calculation, crucial for problem-solving.

    Cognitive Principle 4

    • Knowledge/skills transfer to new problems requires understanding the problem's context and underlying structure.
    • Sufficient background knowledge is essential for students to appreciate problem context.
    • Deliberate practice builds concepts in long-term memory, serving as a reference for novel concepts.
    • Chunking aids cognitive processing; metacognition or thinking beyond thinking is essential. This applies integrative, innovative, and ideational principles of the IDF.

    Cognitive Principle 5

    • Beliefs about intelligence significantly influence student behavior.
    • Motivated learners believe intelligence improves through effort.
    • Teachers should praise learner effort and strategies, not just ability.
    • Encouraging learning goals rather than performance goals fosters greater learner control.
    • Learners can learn from errors and mistakes.

    Science of Learning Definition

    • Science of Learning is not an ideology, philosophy, or program of instruction
    • It summarizes existing cognitive science research on student learning.
    • Its goal is to connect research with practical teaching and learning applications.
