LEARNING AS A PRODUCT OR PROCESS

As there are several orientations to learning I've decided to look more into the learning as product and learning as process - cognitivist .

LEARNING AS A PROCESS - COGNITIVIST

View of learning process:

Internal mental process (including insight, information processing, memory and perception)

Locus (particular position) of learning:

Internal cognitive (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding through thought, experience and the senses) structuring.

Purpose in education:

Develop the capacity and skills to learn better

Educator's role:

Structures content of learning activity

Manifestations in adult learning:

Cognitive development, intelligence, learning and memory as function of age.

Learning how to learn

In contrast to LEARNING AS A PRODUCT where it is approached as an outcome - the end product of some process.
