In my career, I have used my milling science degree to start as a miller. Although I started at an entry-level position, I quickly rose up to management and research positions. With extensive research, I changed the way that we mill by producing flour in a more efficient manner. Also applying what I learned In my CAD Flow Sheets for Grain Processes class, I was able to offer more suggestions on how to lay out a plant more effectively. By doing these, the cost of production was reduced for the…
Gagne’s Nine Events of Instruction Gagne’s learning theory is based on two basic elements: the internal conditions that will intervene in the process and the external conditions that will promote optimal learning. From his point of view both elements, learning and instruction, become two sides of the same theory therefore must be created and studied together. According to Robert Gagne’s instructional theory, the instructor acts as a tutor or guide during the learning process; generating…
Caffarella, and Baumgartner, 2007, p. 84). Chapter four of Learning in Adulthood provides a wonderful framework of Knowle’s (1968) andragogy and other models of adult learning. The transformation of pedagogy, helping children learn, to andragogy, helping adults learn, is instrumental in…
you well, that’s not how Malcolm believed that was how we became knowledgeable. “Learning is a change in the individual, due to the interaction of that individual, and his environment, which fills a need and makes him more capable of dealing adequately with his environment.” [ Burton, 1963, p.7] Some theorists believe that learning is a process where behavior is changed, but at the same time others believe learning happens automatically as you cognitively develop. In 1973 Malcolm published a…
Implicit learning is defined as abstract, automatic, unintentional, effortless, and unconscious learning. However, how do we know that someone has learned implicitly? Using what method, can we figure out the learning phrase of implicit learning? Many studies have been done on implicit learning starting from 1898. In 1967, Reber released a paper who aimed to investigate the process by which participants responds to the statistical nature of the stimulus arrayed. Through this study, Reber was able…
approach you took to accomplish a project you were assigned?” As a high school physics student in my junior year, I was placed on a team and tasked with building a Rube Goldberg machine that could move an object 20 feet. I started the process by watching several YouTube videos that demonstrated the basics of a Rube Goldberg machine (i.e., balls rolling, random ramps, many moving parts, etc.) but I quickly realized that this would be a tremendous challenge to build our own contraption. Knowing…
Rube Goldberg was a very famous,prize winner cartoonist.He was born July 4,1883 in San Francisco.He was a man with a big imagination and enjoyed to entertain children.Rube was very creative with his cartoons.He worked hard to achieve his most important achievements.Mr.Goldberg believed that he would help keep inventions alive throughout his legacy.He attended U. Cal Berkeley and received a degree in engineering.His first job was at San Francisco Chronicle and it led to a lot of success.One award…
In Adam Gopnik's article, “Get Smart,” he effectively evaluates true smartness of the machines of modern technology. Gopnik raises some good points to support the fact that machines are currently not as witty as human. For me, the most interesting point of the article is when Gopnik notes and then goes on to explain that the machines only have good memory but they cannot react to situations for which they are not prepared. Gopnik explains that the only reason a computer system named Watson won…
the booming field called machine learning. I always tried to make algorithms to predict something based on heuristic decisions or even just hardcoded bunch of decisions. It was only in UCSD when I took my first Machine learning course, I realized the true potential of Machines and Data and the sweet bond between them. At first it all looked magic…
Today I am going to examine learning patterns and the roles they play in my daily life. These four learning patterns have distinct features that make them unique. These four learning patters have thoughts, feelings, and actions. I have a Use First pattern because that pattern is a filter wide open within my brain-mind interface. For my learning pattern I use the Use First pattern with sequence because I strive on neatness. I always have to have everything in order. I am a clean freak. I…
