Gagne (1997) - correct answer ✔Theorist that contended that Learning
theories try to provide conceptual structures involved in the process of taking
in information and getting it transformed so that it is stored in long-term
memory and later recalled as an observable human performance. (pg 9).
Behaviorist Learning Theory - correct answer ✔Behavorists are concerned
with discovering the relationship between stimuli and responses to predict and
control behavior. Premise is that learning occurs primarily through
reinforcement of desired responses. The focus is on "reward", interested in
discovering the external controls that affect internal processes and less
concerned with mental processes. Focus on external events (pg 9).
B.F. Skinner - correct answer ✔An American behavorist who was chiefly
interested in learning process. Used reinforcement to teach pigeons how to
bowl. Programmed learning , learning divided into small steps, at each new
step a new idea is introduced and information previously introduced is
reviewed. Learners respond to each step in a manner appropriate to the
instruction. The learner is immediately told if they are right or wrong. The
learner's behavior is gradually shaped as they progress through the
programmed materials until achievement of the learning objective. (pg 9).
Behaviorsim - correct answer ✔Focus on observable behavior. Informed
instructional design by:

understanding. The idea is that learning is a conscious, rational
process. :earning occurs primarily through exposure to logically presented
information. People learn by making models, maps and frameworks in their
mind. ~ is the opposite of behaviorism (pg 10).
Use of cognitive theory in the design of learning - correct answer ✔Help
learners to:
- organize the information; objectives, chunking, well-designed instructions
and order

- strengthen new knowledge into memory; practice, feedback, summary, test,
on-the-job application.
- Focus attention, and answer WIIFM (what's in it for me), movement,
activities. (pg 10).
Constructivism - correct answer ✔Focus on how learners internalize what
they have learned. A philosophy of learning based on the premise that people
construct their own understanding of the world they live in through reflection
on experiences. (pg 10).
Jean Piaget - correct answer ✔Swiss development pyschologist who
contended that learners construct knowledge from assimilation and
accomodation. (pg 10).
Assimilation - correct answer ✔The incorporation of new experiences into an
already existing framework without changing the framework. It occurs when
, the individual's new experiences are aligned with their internal beliefs of the
world, and may occur when individuals fail to change a faulty understanding
(pg 10).
Accomodation - correct answer ✔The process of re-framing one's mental
beliefs of the external world to fit new expectations. Failure leads to learning.
(pg 10).
Constructivist learning event - correct answer ✔A learning event involves
carefully designed activities that have multiple perspectives and experimental
opportunities. The task is designed to be similar to what the learner
encounters in the real-world, including all the issues and uncertainities
(simulation) (pg 11).
Constructivist approach - correct answer ✔Focus on the individual learner
and place importance on the national culture of individuals believing that how
people learn is influenced by their cultural settings. Believe that learners are
motivated to learn only when they believe they can be successful. (pg 11).
Constructivist Instructional design considerations - correct answer ✔Talent
Development professionals should focus on the following:
