Beth Dichter's insight:
If you are interested in comparing some key components of behaviorism, cognitivism and constructivism side-by-side check out this visual. You will quickly find areas where components are similar as well as areas where ideas are more diverse.

Do you know the actual theories of learning? A learning theory is an attempt to describe how people learn, helping us understand this inherently complex process.
Beth Dichter's insight:
This infographic explores three traditional learing theories: Behaviorism, Constructiorism (which I know as constructivism), Cognitivism; and a learning theory of the digital age: Connectivism. As well as providing a list of theorists the infographic also shows how learning occurs, influencing factors, the role of memory, how transfer occurs, a brief way to explain each type of learning, beneifits and problems as well as several ways to look at the theories as a whole.

I want us to set the bar really high when it comes to education technology -- both in its development and its implementation. I don't think it's too much to ask. I mean, we're talking about teaching and learning here... Check out "the Audrey Test" in this article. Would your techies be able to answer the questions? Would you be able to answer the questions? What would happen if we asked these questions in a broader forum in our communities?

"Of the many eLearning theories that influence the practice, three of them are used by professionals on a daily basis...Practice and theory actually goes hand in hand. This is true not only in instructional design but in any other field or discipline. Theory, far from crippling your practice, will actually help you improve the quality of your eLearning material. While a learning theory won't answer all of your design problems, it offers clarity throughout your process and directs you toward finding solutions."
Beth Dichter's insight:
Learn more about three learning theories of instructional design in this post: * Constructivism * Cognitivism * Behaviorism Why? Each theory looks at "HOW" students learn. Understanding the theories helps you design activities that will help learners move forward in their learning process. The infographic provides a definition for each of the theories and then provides ideas on what each theory helps the learner practice. As with most infographics from SHIFT's eLearning Blog, this post also provides additional information on each of the three theories as well as links to additional resources. Explore this post to better understand why these theories are important to all teachers, in online learning, blended learning and face2face situation.

Great graphic and good general overview

Do you "want to extend the concepts of the math curriculum beyond the pages of the text?" This site uses Google Earth as a "dynamic tool that will be used to accomplish this. Google Earth provides startling clear satellite views of the globe in an interactive 3D environment. Beyond the visual, users can add placemarks, annotations, photos, and models, as well as measure distances and draw paths."

I like that it gives a comparison of behaviorism, cognitism and constructivism (even though we aren't looking at that school) and it also gives information about the teachers, learner and techniques, etc.
This article explains the differences between behaviorism, cognitivism, and constructivism. It shows differences in each school's teachers, learners, types of materials, techniques, and factors.
