Learning theories
Comparison of different learning theories
Posted by David Wees on Nov 28, 2009
The focus of ETEC 512 is the theory behind learning. We've spent the past 12 weeks looking at different learning theories, and discussing how these learning theories are applicable to our students and our lives. It's been a pretty interesting overview for me, and one I'm surprised more teachers don't have to go through. Although I suspect many of these theories feel far removed from the daily part of a classroom, really they embody the very essence of why we teach, and what our best practices are.
