What is learning? Learning as a Change - Change in one’s ability or knowledge. Learning is measured by an amount of change that occurs with an individuals knowledge, performance or behaviour. Expert verses novice behaviour. Learning with and through technology. Text pages A problematic statement Seems like a better framework

Behaviourism Shape behaviour through stimulus and response – drill and practice software Learning requires small progressive steps – tutorials Behaviour of learners can be seen and measured. Computer based testing?

Instructivism 9 steps from “Gaining attention, informing learner of objective. Recall of prior learning, presenting new material, providing guidance, elicit performance etc Sequential and clear instructions Tutorials

Constructivism Working on authentic problems Often collaborative Active engagement of the learner - sense of adding to previous knowledge and experience Learning is a personal journey Simulations, problem solving, project planning and management

Constructionism Active builders of intellectual structures Construct things that can be used again as building blocks Lego, logo, programming, Sims games Organising socio technical networks Some say Constructivism + technology = constructionism

Connectivism Chaotic connections more like a network of people and ideas Decisions based on a changing state – new information, new ideas, constantly shifting ideas and subject matter and how it is interpreted Technology enables the learning. Web-based learning and network learning.
