Model theory

discuss important points of learning theories pulled from the Elemental and Holistic models and explain in details the significance of those concepts, and examples of teaching theories. To begin, learning theories fall into two major families, the Behaviorist and Cognitive theories. With several years and dissecting the theories, they have been conceptualized in terms of broader models; Elemental and Holistic models. The elemental model, “represents the…

The debate between E.H. Carr and G.R. Elton signifies the conflict between the “Old School” of historical studies and the Revisionist model. Carr proposes that there exists within historical studies the need for interpretation, and that there is no such thing as a universalized “truth” or “fact”. This is evocative of the Postmodernist phenomenon to critique and rethink approaches to history, which I will discuss later in this paper. Elton, on the other hand, emphasizes the universal “truth”…

Thornberry was a theorist who came up with the interactional model. In the text, it states, “Do certain individuals select themselves to hang out with delinquents by their previous behavior, or do they learn criminality from delinquents with whom they start associating?” (Tibbetts, 2012). I believe that the second question would make more sense. The reason I say this is because certain individuals tend to learn criminality when they start to blend in and socialize with other people. I am the…

civilization were the scientific theories and explanations that famous philosophers and scientists created. However, during this time period, scientists and philosophers did go through the modern scientific method when creating a theory. The scientists of that time came up with conclusions founded on false ideas and assumptions based on religious variables, thus, creating an array of erroneous conclusions. (Scientific Revolution). Although many of the original theories during this time period…

The theory I thought was best to do this paper on was the Expectancy Violation Theory created by Judee K. Burgoon. Before I continue speaking on behalf of this theory, I it would be best that I gave a little background information on Judee K. Burgoon. She is currently working at the University of Arizona as a professor of Communication, Family Studies and Human Development. She has also both written or edited 13 books and monographs. She is also accredited with developing a few communication…

research is a series of hypothesis and confirmations about nature, causes and outcomes for schools and understudies of fruitful school administration. In general, theories could either take an open form or closed. In this aspect, all theories can be categorized into the two distinct categories. In another context of leadership theories and its relationship to educational leadership, it is embraced that education audits are carried out so as to seek a lasting solution to the hindrances…

The four theoretical contributions have been analyzed in detail in our Textbook `Organizational theory `.These contributions are starting from the relatively simple Scientific Management (Taylor) and Administrative theory (Fayol) to the more complex ones Bureaucracy and Organizational Structure (Weber) and Administrative Behavior (Simon). The scientific management is the most logical approach which is based on clear calculation; the work process itself was in focus and trough the method the…

problem with natural science is the articulation of a paradigm. Researchers must conduct experiments and observations to articulate or express coherently paradigms. They must undergo work on the paradigm to prove and define the given models of previous theory. After giving attention to these problems Kuhn suggests that the practicing of articulated paradigms will be determined as capable of answering set problems or incapable and with that will cease to be used in further…

Middle range nursing theories cover larger populations in different settings than grand theories and contain a few concepts that are testable. Pender’s Health Promotion Model and Kolcaba’s Comfort Theory are both middle range nursing theories that have stood the tests of both time and trials. There are several similarities as well as differences. The following pages will compare and contrast these theories while illustrating that both are middle range nursing theories. Nola Pender developed the…

Korrel Kanoy, Brent C. Miller, explains the theories and research of how children’s’ attention potentially decrease as the parents decide to divorce. They evidently show an interaction diagrams of how children are impacted during the decision. I will be using the diagrams to express the emotions brought to me as a child and reminisce the feeling of how the factors of divorce cause the amount of stress and obligation of divorce. It also includes the theories of conceptualizations of the child’s…
