Study Notes
K-W-L Visualization/Imagination Exercise
- Helps students to use their imagination
- Aids learning process
Science Process Skills
- Observing: using senses to gather data
- Communicating: writing objectively
- Classifying: grouping objects based on characteristics
- Measuring: quantifying observations
- Relating objects in space and time: understanding relationships between objects
- Predicting: making educated guesses
- Inferring: drawing conclusions from data
- Controlling variables: identifying and manipulating variables
- Defining operationally: understanding and explaining concepts
Inquiry-Based Learning
- 4 phases: Orientation, Conceptualization, Investigation, and Conclusion
- Principles:
- Learners are at the center of the process
- Learning revolves around information processing skills
- Facilitating learning and inquiry
- Evaluating development of information processing skills and conceptual understanding
- 4 levels:
- Confirmation Inquiry: learners are given a question and method
- Structured Inquiry: learners are given the question and method to achieve the result
Science Education in the Philippines
- Aims to develop scientific theory and literacy among learners
- Provides learners with critical problem-solving, responsible stewardship, and innovative skills
- Uses hands-on, minds-on, and hearts-on activities
Approaches to Learning
- Multi/Interdisciplinary Approach: learning through diverse perspectives and disciplines
- Contextual Learning: applying new knowledge to real-life situations
- Problem/Issue-Based Learning: using complex, real-world issues as subject matter
- Inquiry-Based Approach: engaging students through exploration and high-level questioning
Learning Theories
- Constructivism: learners construct knowledge rather than passively receiving information
- Social Cognition Learning Model: humans learn behaviors by observing others
Learning Styles
- Visual, Auditory, Reading, and Kinesthetic (VARK) by Walter Burke Barbe
- National Association of Secondary School Principals: Cognitive, Affective, and Physiological
- The Index of Learning Styles: 4 dimensions (Sensory/Intuitive, Visual/Verbal, Active/Reflective, and Sequential/Global)
Multiple Intelligence
- Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligence:
- Verbal-linguistic Intelligence: well-developed verbal skills
- Logical-mathematical Intelligence: ability to think conceptually and abstractly
- Spatial-Visual Intelligence: capacity to think in images and pictures
- Bodily-kinesthetic Intelligence: ability to control one's body movements
- Musical Intelligence: ability to produce and appreciate rhythm, pitch, etc.
Taxonomy of Affective Domain
- Krathwohl's taxonomy:
- Receiving: learner sensitivity to stimuli
- Responding: learner active attention to stimuli
- Valuing: learner's belief and attitude of worth
- Characterization: learner's highest internalization and behavior
Experiential Learning
- David Kolb's Experiential Learning:
- Accommodators: "hands-on" types
- Convergers: "concrete" dealing with abstract ideas
- Divergers: using personal experiences
- Assimilators: most comfortable working with abstract concepts
Learning Models and Theories
- Honey and Mumford's Learning Styles:
- Activist, Pragmatist, Reflector, and Theorist
- Anthony Gregorc's Mind Styles:
- Perceptual learning styles are sensory-based
- Jerome Bruner's idea:
- Progressing from enactive, to iconic, and then to abstraction
Explore the aims of developing scientific theory and literacy in learners through varied activities. Learn about the different approaches like multi/interdisciplinary approach for effective science education.
