Learning Theories
Learning theories provide a pedagogical/andragogical basis for understanding how our students learn. As McLeod notes, "Each theoretical perspective offers benefits to designers but the
perspectives must be taken into context depending upon the situation, performance goal(s), and learners. And since the context in which the learning takes place can be dynamic and multi-
dimensional, some combination of the three learning theories and perhaps others should be considered and incorporated into the instructional design process to provide optimal learning."
