Reflection Week 4

28 September 2015

These week topics are about pedagogical approach of innovative learning environment. The pedagogical approach are content 3 types of theory which is: cognitive, behaviorism and constructivism.

1     Cognitivism

Cognitive theory defines learning as "a semi-permanent change in mental processes or associations." Cognitivists do not require an outward exibition of learning but focus more on the internal processes and connections that take place during learning.

The main assumption of cognitive psychology is that there are cognitive processes that take place and influence the way things are learned. Explanations for how cognitive processes work are known as information processing theories or models. The three-component model of information processing is taught in Educational Psychology. It looks something like this:

Important classroom principles from cognitive psychology include meaningful learning, organization, and elaboration.

Create an environment where there are lots of manipulatables, tools where they can develop an understanding. An instructor can ask questions to help students refine their thinking and recognize where they may be wrong.

Failure may be considered a good thing as it is a tool to help learners realize that they need to learn more.

       Behaviorism

   Behaviorism is a worldview that assumes a learner is essentially passive, responding to environmental stimuli. The learner starts off as a clean slate (i.e. tabula rasa) and behavior is shaped through positive reinforcement or negative reinforcement.

   

3.    Constructivism

     Constructivism is a learning theory found in psychology which explains how people might acquire knowledge and learn. It therefore has direct application to education. The theory suggests that humans construct knowledge and meaning from their experiences.

Activities

Dr Jamaluddin divide into three groups based on cognitive, behaviorism and constructivism. After that we have to present and share the knowledge with other friends. For me group discussion during learning is the best ways for student to understand. It’s also have benefit to students more aggressive and interactive during learning lesson.

Reflection week 3

21 September 2015

            These week topics are main features and criteria of innovative learning environments. The innovative learning environment  are: 1) Analysis of innovative learning environment, 2) Current trend and issues online learning environment and 3)main features and criteria of innovative learning environment. From we start our class Dr. Jamaluddin give a task for everyone to search principal of Innovative. After that upload and share to e-learning what everyone get from the website.

           

            After we discuss the principal of learning Dr Jamaluddin give a sheet about seven principal of innovation. The seven principal of innovation are: 1) Learners at the center, 2) The social of learning, 3) Emotions are integral to learning, 4) Recognizing individual differences, 5) Stretching all students, 6) Assessment for learning and 7) Building horizontal connections.

Activities

            Dr Jamaluddin gives a number and divides into small group to discuss about the topic. The learning types is jigsaw learning that need to discuss in a group after that change the group member and discuss to others group member. From this types of learning it can makes more enjoyable and know each other that we can share the knowledge.

            The end of the class we discuss about assignment 1 that need to submit on 5 October 2015. 

Reflection week 2

14 September 2015

            These week topics are online learning environment. The online learning environment divide into three subtopic, which are: 1) What is online learning, 2) Types of online learning environment, 3) Online learning vs innovative learning. Dr Jamaluddin explains about the meaning of online and learning environment. It’s also describe the types of online learning includes e-learning, online learning, virtual learning environment, formal and informal learning environment, and personal and social learning environment. 

            Each type has a different meaning that we need to understand. Online learning and e-learning almost the same thing and meaning. Virtual learning is a learning platform system. It’s also delivering materials to students. Formal learning environment is a learning system that organized and structured environment. Informal learning environment support the system for example youtube. It’s also more interactive and freedom to select the tool.

            In the class Dr Jamaluddin also discuss about Personal learning environment and Social learning environment. The meaning almost same but a bit different. For me the different between social learning environment and personal learning environment are learning environment that help learners to learn at their own pace and manage their own learning. For example Twitter, Facebook and Gmail. The social interaction is a learning environment where the learning occurs through social interaction between peers.

Activities

            During the class, Dr Jamaluddin gives a task innovation use of technology in teaching and learning. We need to list criteria and principles in innovation. We need to discuss in group 3-4 person and present the input to in front that we can share the knowledge. We hav2 three group presentation and the input are different each other. The activity learning call cooperative and “jigsaw”. From this activity there make student more understand and also enjoyable during class lesson.
