Four Principles of Teaching The Information Processing Family of Models (e.g.

inductive thinking, concept attainment, advance organizers, cognitive growth, scientific inquiry, mnemonics, etc.)

The Social Family of Models (e.g. group investigation, social inquiry, jurisprudential inquiry, laboratory method, role playing, etc.)

The Personal Family of Models (e.g. Nondirective teaching, awareness training, classroom meeting, self-actualization, conceptual systems, etc.)

The Behavioural Systems Family of Models (e.g. Social learning, mastery learning, programmed learning, simulation, etc.)

11

Behavioural Approach - Example of the Behavioural Systems Family of Models

Change the behaviour - Stimulus Behaviour Reinforcement

12

Cognition - Example of the Information Processing Family of Models

How the mind works Cognitive-developmental model – people

progress from infancy though childhood into adulthood (children learn based on experience)

Information – processing model – input, processes and output

13

Social Learning - Example of the

Social Family of Models Observational learning – we learn by

observing the hehaviour of others Attention Retention Reproduction Motivation

14

Humanistic approach - Example of

the Personal Family of Models

Affective or emotional components of learning

Children-centred Self-actualization
