Jerome Bruner
|
The aim of education should be to create autonomous learning: learning to learn
|
|
Bruner's three modes of representation
|
1. Enactive representation
2. Iconic representation 3. Symbolic representation |
|
Enactive representation
|
This appears first from 0 to 1 years of age. It involves encoding action based information and storing it in our memory. For example in the form of movement as a muscle memory of baby might remember the action of shaking a rattle
|
|
Iconic representation
|
This up years from age 1 to 6 years. This is where information is stored visually in the form of images such as a mental picture in the mind's eye. For some this is conscious; others say they don't experience. This may explain why, when we are learning a new subject, it is often helpful that diagrams are illustrations to accompany verbal information
|
|
Symbolic representation
|
This develops last from age seven and on words. This is where information is stored in the form of a code or symbol, such as language. This is the most adaptable bowl form of representation, for actions and images have a fix to relation to what they represent. Dog is a symbolic representation of a single class

|
Spiral curriculum (Bruner)

|
John Dewey
|
Favored the child center curriculum in which learning came through experience, not rote memorization. The problem solving method and was the preferred approach and motivation was the center of the learning process. The goal of education was to promote individual growth and to prepare the child for full participation in a democratic society.

|
John Dewey
|
The child should be viewed as a total organism and that education is most effective when it considers not only the intellectual but also the social, emotional, and physical needs of the child.

Blooms taxonomy
|
A classification of learning objectives within education. It is a multi tiered a model of classifying thinking according to six cognitive levels of complexity
|
|
Knowledge: Recalling information.
|
the lowest level of objectives and blooms hierarchy, knowledge of first two objects and it's such as memorizing math facts are formulas, scientific principles, or verb conjugation.
|
|
Comprehension: translating, interpreting, or extrapolating information
|
comprehension objectives require the students show an understanding of information as well as the ability to use it. Examples include interpreting the meaning of a diagram, graphs, or parable; in fern the principle underlying a science experiment; are predicting what might happen next in the story
|
|
Application: using principles or obstructions to solve novel or real life problems
|
Application objectives require students to use knowledge or principles to solve practical problems. Examples include using geometric principles to figure out how many gallons of water to put into a swimming pool of give and dimensions or using knowledge of the relationship between temperature and pressure to explain why a balloon is larger on a hot day than a cold day

Analysis objectives require students to see the underlying structure of complex information or ideas. Examples of analysis objectives include contrasting school in the United States with education in Japan, understanding how the functions of the carburetor and distributor are placed in an automobile engine, or identifying the main idea of a short story.

|
Synthesis: the creation of something that did not exist before

When synthesis of objectives involve using skills to create completely new products. Examples include writing a composition, deriving a mathematical will, designing a science experiment to solve a problem, or making up a new sentence in a foreign language.
