    Study Notes

    Module 3: Understanding Learners

    • This module focuses on understanding learners from childhood to adolescence, observing characteristics and behaviors in school settings.
    • It aims to help future teachers understand cognitive development to effectively implement teaching strategies.

    Understanding Learners

    • Learners can classify items.
    • Learners begin reading and writing in middle childhood.
    • Learners can recall and sequence events.
    • Active learning is more effective than passive listening.
    • Learners focus and seek information.
    • Learners develop automatic routines.

    Adolescent Learners

    • Adolescents group and classify symbols, statements, and theories.
    • Adolescents follow and formulate arguments logically.
    • Adolescents hypothesize and consider possibilities.
    • Adolescents perform mental operations with abstract symbols.
    • Adolescents understand and use metaphors and figurative language.

    Cognitive Abilities

    • Module 3 task 1-A involves observing concrete operational abilities in grade school students, using the sample table with specific student behaviors as evidence.
    • Module 3 task 1-B involves observing formal operational abilities in adolescents and using a table to record evidence for different grade levels.
    • There appears to be specific cognitive abilities expected to be observed in learners of particular ages and grade levels.

    Intended Learning Outcomes

    • Identify cognitive characteristics of learners in specific developmental stages.
    • The course aims to help students be aware of developmental characteristics of middle and adolescent learners.

    Assessment

    • Assess if all learners within a given age demonstrate all cognitive abilities.
    • Consider cultural factors that impact cognitive development.
    • Identify factors that hinder development.
