, and review the instructor guidance. This week you will be discussing the multiple perspectives about how humans learn, based on your developing knowledge about learning theory, and how the perspectives affect your own ability to perform at desired levels.
In your paper,
Compare and contrast behaviorism, cognitivism, constructivism, and humanism as applied to learning.
Summarize at least two sub-theories or ideologies within each theory or learning framework.
Example from behaviorism: associative learning, classical conditioning, operant conditioning, conditioning, extinction, and ratio or interval schedules
Example from cognitivism: schema theory, memory development, elaboration theory (i.e., Bloom’s taxonomy), cognitive load theory, and social learning or cognitive theory.
Example from constructivism: cognitive constructivism, dialectical (social) constructivism, zone of proximal development, and discovery learning
Example from humanism: motivational theories of learning (e.g. self-determination theory, Maslow’s hierarchy of needs), experiential learning, and Steiner pedagogy or Waldorf education.
List and explain a minimum of two theoretically supported strategies from the past weeks that would most help you to increase your learning success.
Apply basic methods of psychological research skills to this content by synthesizing supporting evidence from at least two scholarly sources from the Ashford University Library in order to defend the strategies you have chosen.
