In this article in Education Corner, Loveless discusses the value of Social Learning Theory and points out how teachers can use this theory to motivate students' behavior. https://t.co/OQBEJdzi7U

In this blog post by WGU, Social Learning Theory is broken down by definition, history, and application in education. https://t.co/nIRsPUHtvM #6711SM6

@Animated_Teach I also cited this resource. I love the visual charts as well as their emphasis on educators being facilitators of knowledge in a constructivist classroom as opposed to a traditional style teacher. #6711SM5

@Animated_Teach Interesting! This video defines the main difference between constructivism and constructionism as cognitive skills vs. psychomotor skills.#6711SM5

@MrsLangione What an innovative way to apply constructivism in the curriculum! #6711SM5

[Samantha Kelly @MrsKellysMusic]

This popular source (https://t.co/fG2TNSDjPc) discusses the differences between social constructivism and cognitive constructivism. I especially appreciate the visual chart to represent these differences! #6711SM5

This blog contains my favorite concise definition of constructivism: "Constructivism is based on the idea that people actively construct or make their own knowledge, and that reality is determined by your experiences as a learner." #6711SM5

In this article,https://t.co/EsImEJNyRl, the authors discuss the evolution of constructivism citing, "In constructivist classrooms, learners don’t passively repeat the information delivered by teacher." rather, students develop deep connections to the material. #6711SM5

@Animated_Teach I agree. Knowing the differences and similarities between theories is key when designing your teaching style and goals for your students. #6711SM4

@EarlJoh93731173 I find this video to be very informative and explains cognitive learning perfectly. #6711SM4

[Samantha Kelly @MrsKellysMusic]

In this blog: https://t.co/g2FrMvSfkK Cognitive theory is defined and discussed. I specifically love the importance placed on self-reflection. Asking our students to reflect on what they have learned helps their brains create pathways for memory.#6771SM4

@DorothuliaD With this theory in mind, learning targets are so importatnt!

[Samantha Kelly @MrsKellysMusic]

I love this blog for simply defining each learning theory including Cognitive Theory! https://t.co/QczePgDkcA

The theories seem to be pinned against one another but in my opinion, they work hand in hand. What do you think?

[Samantha Kelly @MrsKellysMusic]

In this journal entry, M. Alahmad discusses the strengths and weaknesses of Cognitive theory siting "the main disadvantage of the cognitive approach is that it refers to
cognitive processes that we cannot directly observe." https://t.co/duuA640Ki8

Is it too subjective?

[Samantha Kelly @MrsKellysMusic]

@MrsLangione It does not seem like learning can easily be explained and summarized by just one learning theory! Personally, I find truth in almost all of them. #6711SM3

@BandisLife_504 What a helpful blog! Helping students boost their self-motivation is a tricky task indeed. #6711SM3
