In this paper we will be reviewing the four major learning theories, Behaviorism, Cognitivism, Constructivism, and Humanism, as it may apply in a corporate training proposal. Specific modules have been chosen from each of these theories. The goal is to inspire, propagate and promote the full potential of the employees in relationship to their duties, responsibilities and adaptation to learning. Behaviorism: Founded by John B. Watson in 1912, who published "Psychology as the Behaviorist Views It"
The point of this paper is to detail the three commonly used learning theories (Behaviorism, Cognitivism and Constructivism) on online courses. The description of the implication of these learning theories can add to the procedure of learning for the learner. Online learning has developed quickly in the previous couple of years in schools obliging educators to learn compelling approaches to fabricate online groups of learners. There are obstructions to avoid and key segments to incorporate, while
always the case. In trying to understand the various theories of learning and their implications for education, it is helpful to realize that the term “learning” means different things to different people and is used somewhat differently in different theories.” Shuell makes an excellent point, as even though one word can have a universal shared meaning, not everyone may see it the way someone else sees it. According to Wikipedia, learning theories, “are conceptual frameworks describing how information
revolutionized the world with his theory on socio-cultural development. His theory of socio-cultural development centered on the notion that a child learns through adults or peers. In other words, a child's cognitive development is engaged through the child's environment, this means that a child develops through interaction with other individuals. Vygotsky's theory differed from other theorist’s theories; one of them was Piaget, a Swiss psychologist. His theory was that children learn from the inside
Learning theories provide instructional designers with instructional strategies and techniques which facilitate learning. Each learning perspective discussed in this essay is in terms of specific interpretation of the learning process. The information presented provides the reader with a comparison and contrast of the differences in practical application in an instructional situation. The specific learning theories in this essay are behaviorism, constructivism and cognitivism. The essay will
changes. Hence different learning theories such as behaviorism, cognitivism, and constructivism have been used to improve learning, performance and class involvement of student. Each of theories has distinctive features based on their individual perspectives of the learning process. In this essay, I will mainly discuss 3 things: 1) the main tenet of behaviorism and constructivism, 2) a comparison between cognitive and constructivism and 3) the implications that constructivism has for the classroom teacher
been a multitude of learning theories established over the centuries. To this day new theories are developed and traditional theories continue to be developed and expanded upon. (Swinburne Online, 2016) This paper will draw on information to explore the definitions and features of the learning theories constructivism and behaviourism. Whilst exploring the solid benefits for learning and the learner and then moving onto the challenges and restrictions of both theories will be considered. Examining

The different learning theories and their application in e-learning are discussed in this paper. This paper provides a clear idea of learning and the various learning theories which helps people in the acquisition of knowledge through their environments; and also the history and the role of significant people involved in the development of those theories. It also provides the information about the role of these theories in the process of making e-learning materials, or in the process of e-learning
Technology, eLearning and Implications of Learning Theories Sagar Gadkari Southern Illinois University, Carbondale – IL Abstract: The aim of this paper is to describe the core learning theories and their implications on online learning or eLearning. The paper will also look at how technology can be leveraged for knowledge acquisition under Constructivism theory and how technology can help in learning and knowledge management. Analysis of various theories and their implications on online learning and
