Learning as a Process
|
Learning is defined as the process of acquiring , assimilating,
and internalizing cognitive, motor or behavioral inputs for
their effective and varied use when required, leading to an
enhanced capability for further self monitored learning.

Pedagogy

B
Meaning
• Pedagogue is defined as “a schoolteacher. One who instructs in
a pedantic or dogmatic manner”. In the pedagogic model,
teachers assume responsibility for making decisions about
what is learned, and how and when something will be learned.

B
Constructivist Theory
• Formalization of the theory of constructivism is generally attributed to Jean Piaget, who articulated mechanisms by which knowledge is internalized by learners.
• He suggested that through processes of accommodation and assimilation, individuals construct new knowledge from their experiences.
• Constructivism is often associated with pedagogic approaches that promote active learning, or learning by doing.

B
Pedagogies based on constructivism
• Learners learn by experimentation, and not by being told what will happen.
• They are left to make their own inferences, discoveries and conclusions.
• It also emphasizes that learning is not an "all or nothing" process but that students learn the new information that is presented to them by building upon knowledge that they already possess.
• It is therefore important that teachers constantly assess the knowledge their students have gained to make sure that the students' perceptions of the new knowledge are what the teacher had intended.

B
Pedagogies based on constructivism
• The teacher's role is not only to observe and assess but to also engage with the students while they are completing activities, wondering aloud and posing questions to the students for promotion of reasoning.
• The teacher, after reading a story, encourages the students to write or draw stories of their own, or by having the students reenact a story that they may know well, both activities encourage the students to conceive themselves as reader and writers.

B
Cognitive Theory
• Grew in response to Behaviorism
• Knowledge is stored cognitively as symbols
• Learning is the process of connecting symbols in a
meaningful & memorable way
• Studies focused on the mental processes that facilitate
symbol connection

Cognitive Dissonance Theory
• Comes from social psychology
• One of the most famous and influential theories
• Proposes that people have a motivational drive to reduce dissonance
• By changing their attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors, or
• By justifying or rationalizing their attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors
4/10/2013 Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com
B
Cognitive Dissonance
• Cognitive Dissonance:
The distressing mental state caused by inconsistency
between a two beliefs or a belief and an action.
• Assumption: Humans are consistent. Must find a resolution when beliefs conflict, or actions don’t match beliefs.
• Example: Slavery and Democracy
4/10/2013 Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com
B
Reducing Dissonance
• Whenever there is dissonance, we seek to reduce it.
1. Selective Exposure: The tendency to avoid information that creates cognitive dissonance and seek out information, people who support our beliefs.
• How to overcome persuasively? – Avoid the hard sell
– Warm personal relationships
– Example: racial discrimination and my brother
4/10/2013 Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com
B
Postdecision Dissonance
Strong doubts experienced after making an important, close-call decision that is difficult to reverse.
– “buyers remorse”
• Motivates us to seek reassurance, support for our decision.
• Afterwards, tend to rate our choice higher
– Example: Sour Grapes

B
3. Minimal Justification for Action Induces Shift in Attitude
• The best way to change attitudes is to get someone to behave in a way dissonant with their beliefs with the least amount of incentive.
– If there isn’t significant external incentive, people tend to change attitudes to justify their behavior
– If external incentive too high, merely achieve compliance (behavioral conformity without attitude change)
• Example: Would I lie for a dollar?

conflict with their self concept.
• Adults need to be free to direct themselves.

History of Adult Learning Theory:
From “Whatagogy?” to Andragogy
• The Meaning of Adult Education by Eduard Lindeman in 1926
marked the beginning of adult education as a field
• Adult educators began to look for a unique adult education
knowledge base
• European adult educators began to use the term andragogy in the
1950s
• Andragogy finally surfaced and became part of the educational
language in 1967 with Malcolm Knowles, a prominent scholar in
the field of adult education.
4/10/2013 Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com
B
Andragogy Defined
• The term andragogy is based on the Greek work aner (with the
stem andr-) meaning „man not boy‟ (Plato‟s idea that adults
continue to learn
• The Modern Practice of Adult Education: Andragogy versus
Pedagogy (1970) Malcolm Knowles
• Knowles defines andragogy as the art and science of helping
adults learn in contrast with pedagogy, which concerns helping
children learn
• Is Andragogy a learning theory or a set of assumptions?
4/10/2013 Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com
B
Assumptions of Andragogy
• Adults need to know why they need to learn something
• Adults need to learn experientially
• Adults approach learning as a problem solving
• Adults learn best when the topic is immediate value
4/10/2013 Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com
B
The principles of andragogy
• Adults need to be involved in the planning & evaluation of
their instructions
• Experience provides the basis for learning activities
• Adults are most interested in learning subjects that have
immediate relevance to their job or personal life
• Adult learning is a problem centered rather than content
oriented
4/10/2013 Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com
B
Malcolm Knowles
• In the minds of many around the adult education field,
andragogy and the name of Malcolm Knowles have become
inextricably linked. For Knowles, andragogy is premised on at
least four crucial assumptions about the characteristics of adult
learners that are different from the assumptions about child
learners on which traditional pedagogy is premised. A fifth
was added later.

Cont……
• Self-concept: As a person matures his self concept moves from
one of being a dependent personality toward one of being a
self-directed human being
• Experience: As a person matures he accumulates a growing
reservoir of experience that becomes an increasing resource
for learning.
• Readiness to learn. As a person matures his readiness to learn
becomes oriented increasingly to the developmental tasks of
his social roles.

B
Cont……
• Orientation to learning. As a person matures his time
perspective changes from one of postponed application of
knowledge to immediacy of application, and accordingly his
orientation toward learning shifts from one of subject-
centeredness to one of problem centeredness.
• Motivation to learn: As a person matures the motivation to
learn is internal

Four Supporting Assumptions according to Dirkx, Lavin, and
Pelavin (1995)
• Diverse, active learners: wealth of experiences
• Problem-oriented: pragmatic learners, seeking to improve their
performance
• Control of their own learning: voluntary learners who take
seriously their decision to return to school.
• Strong sense of self: varying degrees of self-efficacy, but sense
of self plays a major role in their learning

A comparison of the assumptions of Pedagogy and
Andragogy
ANDRAGOGY
• A comparison of the
assumptions of pedagogy
and andragogy
• Of little worth. Hence
teaching methods are
didactic
PEDAGOGY
• A comparison of the
assumptions of pedagogy
and andragogy
• A rich resource for
learning. Hence teaching
methods include discussion,
problem-solving etc.

B
Cont.,…
ANDRAGOGY
• People learn what society
expects them to. So that the
curriculum is standardized.
• Acquisition of subject matter.
Curriculum organized by
subjects.
PEDAGOGY
• People learn what they need to
know, so that learning
programmes organized around
life application.
• Learning experiences should
be based around experiences,
since people are performance
centered in their learning
