Learning Theories Cognitive Vs. Behavioral Natalie Cavazos Instructional Design Project 2 William G. Perry William G. Perry Cognitive Theorist (1913-1998) Educational Psychologist Taught education at Harvard University Founder of Harvard’s Bureau of Study Council Perry’s Contributions 1935-1940- Assistant Dean at Williams College 1947- Perry founded the Bureau of Study Council 1950- Along with Alston Hurd Chase translated Homer’s “Iliad” 1970- Wrote “Forms of Intellectual and Ethical Development in the College Years” Perry’s Theory Perry wrote a scheme that is a model for understanding how college students come to understand knowledge, the ideas they know about ‘knowing’ and the ways thinking and knowing is part of a cognitive process. There are nine stages that they pass through, some are The authorities know the true authorities are right, the others are frauds Everything is relevant but not equally valid You make your own decisions Ivan Pavlov Ivan Pavlov Behavioral Theorist (1849-1936) Received a degree for Natural Sciences from the University of St. Petersburg Professor of Pharmacology at Medical Military Academy Is famous for the conditioned reflex and classical conditioning Pavlov’s Contributions 1875- Graduated from the University of St. Petersburg 1879- Graduated from the Medical Military Academy 1897- Published lectures of the digestive glands 1904- Received the Nobel Peace Prize for his research of the digestive glands 1935- Government built a laboratory for Pavlov for his work on conditioned reflexes Pavlov’s Theory Classical Conditioning is a form of learning in which a conditioned stimulus signals the occurrence of another unconditioned stimulus. The unconditioned stimulus is usually a significant stimulus such as food or pain, something that gives a response from the start. The stimuli in a classroom would be the grade, either reward or punishment. Perry’s theory on adult learning Perry did a study of college students which is used to understand a students cognitive processes which includes both ethical and intellectually development. Perry believed we all view the world differently due to factors such as gender, religion, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status. In some cases students may resist to learn content that challenges their beliefs, or they may argue that their answers are just as valid as the teachers. Pavlov’s theory on adult learning Teachers are applying classical conditioning in their classrooms by providing with them with a positive classroom environment. If they pair a anxiety- provoking situation, like public speaking, in a pleasant classroom environment they can make a new association of public speaking as a positive experience and keep them relaxed and calm Summary: Application of learning theories on Adult Education Perry’s theory is used in many Universities. Ex: Professors know how to come across teaching students in the different stages of their mentality. Pavlov’s theory is used in all types of classrooms. Ex: Teachers help students through Pavlov’s theory in the classroom by providing a positive environment in stressful situations. This helps the students associate the negative situation with a positive experience. Works Cited -Learning and Conditioning.(n.d.). AlleyDog.com-Psychology students’ bestfriend.
