2 Schema theory is also know as Cognitivism

3 Information Processing Information Mapping Scaffolding Mental Models Symbol Manipulation

4 1926 Piaget – Cognitive Theory 1930’s Frederic Bartlett 1977 R.C. Anderson - educational

5 Advance organizers Analogies and comparisons Schema signals Cultural references Mental models

6 Accretion – adding new information to existing schema Tuning – Modifying existing schema by enhancing with new ideas Restructuring – the creation of entirely new schema Mental Models – the schemata that represent one’s knowledge about specific matter, but also include ideas of task demands and performances.

7 Activating background knowledge Schemata Scaffolding

8 1930’s: Frederic Bartlett introduced the Schema Theory. 1970’s: Marvin Minsky reintroduced the schema construct by applying it to computer science. 1973: Bransford and Johnson discovered that schema has a strong effect on reading comprehension. 1977: Richard Anderson introduced schema theory in education.

9 1980’s: Roger Schank and Robert Abelson developed the script construct to aid in the explanation of using schema to enhance reading comprehension. 1980: David Rumelhart expanded on Minsky’s application of schema in computer science, and included it in psychology, more specifically in the mental representation of complex knowledge. 1980: Charles Hacker furthered the idea of using Schema Theory in the classroom.

10 1996: Carr and Thompson found that students need help students recall their prior knowledge in a subject area to help them use it to learn new information. 2000: William Brewer continued research on schema’s impact on learning and psychology.
