also emotional states. Thinking styles may be also linked to the learning process, as Zhang & Sternberg (2010) point out, and thinking styles are themselves related to cultural variables. The ways people process information therefore has to do with social learning as well as emotional learning and memory. Certain types of emotions may be more conducive to specific types of learning styles or learning behaviors. Emotions can also promote synchronized or chaotic neurological responses. These findings have implications for classroom design and pedagogy.

is a crucial factor of cognitive growth as knowledge is passed from a more experienced person to the kids. Furthermore, the learning process, which takes place mostly at the basic level, involves freedom of a student in carrying out a function and finding solutions to problems on his/her own (Rahaman, 2014). The basic development level can be pictured as the gap existing between the ability of a student to solve problems individually and the ability to solve similar problems with an adult's supervision or working together with other better students.
This theory postulates that the knowledge acquired through social interaction gets internalized. For instance, a student can learn and apply the… Continue Reading...
hear students out, but also "consult" them regarding the teaching-learning process. Recent researches have increasingly focused on student consultation related benefits and problems. Student involvement in academic decision-making, as well as paying serious attention to their learning experiences are important preliminary steps in advancing the educational field. Not many teachers see that envisioned outcomes are limited to students' examination success. Although success in exams is salient and must not be overlooked, it should also not be considered the core of education. The authors of this study raise the questions of whether exams adequately indicate continuous understanding and capacity in… Continue Reading...
and Martinez-Segura (2013) stated, "The development of customizable and adaptable applications tailored to them provides many benefits as it helps mold the learning process to different cognitive, sensorial or mobility impairments" (p.77). Teachers have the option of constructing lessons using videos, pictures, and slide shows to allow a diverse array of teaching methods. From use of visual aids to increasing the size of text and making text colorful and appealing, technology makes instruction easier. Digital textbooks for example, allow students access to homework and lesson from the convenience of a mobile device or laptop (Orey, Jones, & Branch, 2013).
The addition of digital textbooks in universities allows for greater student freedom and… Continue Reading...

learning process in the classroom and during physical education it is given a new kind of learning experience—the experience of exercise through recreational activity. Jumping jacks, jogging, sprinting, jump roping, rope climbing, tumbling, racing, playing basketball, playing baseball or dodgeball or kickball—all of these activities help to develop the brain as well as the body. They require tactical thinking, forethought, decision making, attention to detail, awareness of… Continue Reading...
Engagement
It is apparent that the most conspicuous and significant points about these ideas is that influence knowledge acquisition and the learning process is that teachers are thoughtful professionals who have both the learner and the content matter on their mind. The teacher seeks to construct a formidable link between content and the learner. It was observed many years back by reformers that curriculum is not immune to manipulation by the teacher. Teachers shape and choose the materials they use to teach. These choices are informed by, among other factors, the teacher's knowledge of the subject area, their assumptions culture and beliefs. That fact notwithstanding, there is still a widespread notion… Continue Reading...

learning process of children (Daniels, 2016). In the field of physical education it can be applied in a way that benefits the teacher, the young learner and the older student serving as the assistant in the class. To help with scaffolding, the older volunteer students will be on hand to lay the groundwork for new ball handling skills, which build on skills already learned by the students. As University of Nottingham (2018) notes, scaffolding can involve breaking up a learning objective into parts so that the student can more easily… Continue Reading...
benefit from visual learning, others from demonstrations, others from lectures. Students should be active participants in the learning process so that they can take ownership of their education. Individualized learning is promoted when possible, but due to limitations, group learning is often required.
Image of the Teacher
The teacher should be there to assist the student in the educative process by demonstrating a sterling character inside and outside the classroom and by providing as many different approaches to learning as are needed to assist the student. The teacher should be willing to support the student by making home visits, by giving positive feedback, by engaging the student,… Continue Reading...

Lesson One
Cognitive Development
Children acquire concepts about the world and boost their learning process
It is useful in shaping and developing visual perception. The process assigns meaning to objects seen
Children get to learn the properties of materials. They explore the cause-effect relationship (Bullard, 2010)
Language Concepts
Early art helps children to develop observation skills, understand how art, culture and history relate, internalize art techniques and generally come to appreciate and enjoy art
Just like it happens in language, art entails recording an idea or thought that can be relayed to another person. Consequently, art is considered to be the first written… Continue Reading...
especially in the maintenance of discipline, control and even the promotion of meaningful learning process (Dreikurs, Grunwald, & Pepper, 2013).
In the current classroom, I ensure that all students participate in classroom discussions; this encourages purposeful action. Moreover, students who behave inappropriately face the consequences, but not involving harsh punishments. In my opinion, consequences are a result of eliminating a child’s inappropriate actions. Therefore, they are appropriate outcomes when dealing with inappropriate acts. The consequence in question needs to make sense, and for the action, they need to have a logical ending. I consider punishment as punitive and do not serve any learning… Continue Reading...
Connectionism and Learning: A Web of Development
I have chosen connectionism and its potential ability to model various learning processes in the brain by a multi-disciplinary approach that combines many different theoretical approaches that have recently been given a big boost with advances in technology. The basic principles that define the connectionism model involve a sense of biological realism that combines interconnected networks that form a more complex network that could explain the processes within the human brain, as well as also serve as a model that could also be used to develop non-human networks such as AI for instance. Although it is not necessarily clear how this… Continue Reading...
program allowed during a clinical practicum in one of China's teaching hospitals. The pilot learning program involves use of a learning process that involves self-directed learning as well as workshop strategies. The results demonstrated marked improvement for participating nursing students in terms of perceptions of EBP, beliefs and attitudes, EBP knowledge, as well as behavior levels. "Beginning competencies in EBP were achieved. Participants reported great satisfaction and have found this program helpful in promoting their analytical and problem-solving abilities, independent learning ability, and cooperative and communication abilities as well" (Zhang, Zeng, Chen, & Li, 2012, p. 570).

my instruction was that most students succeeded in acquiring the knowledge expected of them. Personalizing learning improved outcomes by making the learning process more accessible.
There were no components of each assessment that students frequently missed or scored low on. Most students did well on all the assessments, and when low scores occurred, there was no indication that low scores were occurring in any one specific area. Thus, it was unclear whether there was a problem with any one structure of the component of an assignment. As far as scores showed, all aspects of learning were properly supported.
Eight of the students are excelling. Two are at average levels and two… Continue Reading...
English Language Learners (ELL). Ideally these methods will help in the overall process of guiding and improving the learning process by fostering self-regulated learning strategies among students, while unifying all the instruction they have been subjected to (Clark, 2012).
Pair-work Interview
Put the students into groups of two and ask them to come up with five questions that demonstrate the concepts of the grammar lesson presented. For example, if the day’s lesson covered the grammatical concept of “used to” each student has to come up with questions such as “Where did you used to live? / What are some habits you used to have? / What are some… Continue Reading...
simultaneously taking part in the active learning process, personalizing the experience and taking ownership of their own education the more likely they will be to accomplish tasks, learn from mistakes, and acquire knowledge.
On the other hand, not every attempt to be hands off ends positively: in some cases, too much freedom can lead to lawlessness and abandon especially if there are no clear parameters or expectations that are communicated to students who, ultimately, require some guidance in terms of knowing what is acceptable and unacceptable behavior—which is where the idea of character education comes in… Continue Reading...
