    Study Notes

    Cognitive Processes and Learning

    • Self-regulation in learning involves monitoring and controlling one's own learning processes.
    • Self-efficacy refers to an individual's belief in their capacity to execute behaviors necessary to produce specific performance attainments.
    • Self-esteem is the evaluation one makes of their own worth, impacting motivation and behavior.

    Brain Functions

    • The prefrontal cortex is the region responsible for executive functions, including decision-making, problem-solving, and goal setting.

    Memory Models

    • The multi-store model is commonly used to explain how information is stored and retrieved in memory, comprising sensory, short-term, and long-term memory.
    • Encoding is the process of converting information into a form that can be stored in memory.

    Knowledge Frameworks

    • Schemas are mental frameworks that help organize and interpret information.
    • Teachers possess pedagogical content knowledge, encompassing understanding the best ways to teach specific subjects.

    Instructional Approaches

    • Learner-centered instruction focuses on the individual needs and interests of students, promoting engagement and motivation.
    • Research-based practice involves applying educational practices founded on evidence from research studies to improve teaching.

    Individual Learner Considerations

    • Students with special needs require tailored educational experiences to support their unique learning challenges.
    • Inclusion refers to integrating all students, including those with disabilities, into general education settings.

    Information Processing

    • Connecting new information to existing knowledge is known as assimilation, enhancing understanding and retention of new content.

    Weight and Performance

    • Students' weight can influence performance, as physical health plays a role in cognitive function and classroom engagement.

    Theories in Education

    • A theory is a systematic framework for understanding concepts, relationships, and phenomena within educational practices.
