Behaviourism, Communicative Language Teaching and e-learning

 



Confused? Try this or this.

SUMMARY:

Behaviorism - REINFORCEMENT

  • a change in external behavior is achieved through using reinforcement and repetition 
  • desired behavior is rewarded, while the undesired behavior is not rewarded
  • Pavlov, Skinner - Verbal Behavior

Cognitivism - METACOGNITION

  • internal thoughts and external forces are both an important part of the cognitive process
  • seeks to explain the process of knowledge acquisition and the subsequent effects on the mental structures within the mind
  • student must be an active participant in their own learning process

Constructivism - ACTIVE REORGANISATION

  • people actively take what they are being taught and add it to their previous knowledge and experiences, creating a unique reality
  • learners are not passive recipients of information, but that they actively construct their knowledge in interaction with the environment and through the reorganization of their mental structures

"There is no doubt that online learning is a direct technological response to different learning cultures, methods, and inspirations.

The established learning theories of behaviorism, cognitivism, and constructivism each contribute in unique ways to the design of online materials through their ideas of how learning takes place: Behaviorist strategies teach facts and what is needed for understanding concepts,
cognitive strategies focus on how the process should be implemented for the most successful learning, constructivist strategies use a shift toward real-life application, where the learner is given the opportunity to construct personal meanings from what is presented. 
Connectivism can be used as an important instructional guide or theory to develop previous learning theories for their application to a globalized and networked world."
