Reaction Paper about
Metacognition
Metacognition is essentially reflection on the micro level, an awareness of
our own thought processes as we complete them. Self-evaluation is about not
only making progress, but building confidence and independent thinking.
With these inspiring self-evaluation tips, students stand to learn more about
themselves.
Metacognition is, put simply, thinking about one’s thinking. More
precisely, it refers to the processes used to plan, monitor, and assess one’s
understanding and performance. Metacognition includes a critical awareness
of a) one’s thinking and learning and b) oneself as a thinker and learner.
The use of advanced metacognition also has its fair share of critics. In many
cases, some psychologists argue that metacognition, despite all of its benefits,
can be unhelpful in certain scenarios. Those psychologists argue that higher
levels of metacognition can actually interfere with task performance.

I learned that the 14 learner-centered psychological principles are categorized into four
factor (1)cognitive and metacognitive (2) motivational and affective (3) developmental
and social (4) individual differences. Each principle provides educators the opportunities
to deliver the lesson effectively and promote student motivation and learning. The nature
and goal of the learning process indicates the teachers intention which is to provide
knowledge and enhance the capabilities of the students, with that, the students are
expected to meet the intention they received from the teacher. Also, teachers guide
students to set their goal and help them to achieve it. Teachers are able to use different
strategies where students can easily understand the lesson. And always consider the
factors affecting the students’ learning process, the differences and uniqueness of them.
I realized that as a future educator, we have many ways to advocate the Learner-centered
psychological principles. In order for me to become an effective teaching educator, I need
to apply the principles first to myself. Through these I can help them to enhance their
capabilities to understand my lesson easily. We must ensure that they think critically and
encourage them to have or apply higher order thinking skills to relate lessons to real life
situations. For them to be prepared for their future professional career. Aside from that,
we all know that the learning environment has a significant impact on student learning.
We should help them to deal with it. We should open the door for them to view the real
world and to be aware of the challenges that they may encounter. And teach them to
recognize individual differences and respect each other.
MODULE #3 REVIEW THEORIES RELATED TO LEARNERS
DEVELOPMENT
Rhejean Basa
BEED-IIIA
Learning theories describe the conditions and processes through which learning occurs,
providing teachers with models to develop instruction sessions that lead to better
learning. These theories explain the processes that people engage in as they make sense
of information, and how they integrate that information into their mental models so that it
becomes new knowledge. Learning theories also examine what motivates people to learn,
and what circumstances enable or hinder learning
Sometimes people are skeptical of having to learn theory, believing those theories will
not be relevant in the real world, but learning theories are widely applicable. The models
and processes that they describe tend to apply across different populations and settings,
and provide us with guidelines to develop exercises, assignments, and lesson plans that
align with how our students learn best. Learning theories can also be engaging. People
who enjoy teaching often find the theories interesting and will be excited when they start
to see connections between the theory and the learning they see happening in their own
classrooms
Conclusion, there is no single or perfect learning theory that applies to every student. For
novice learner, behaviorism will be applied to novice learner where they study fact based
on information. Cognitivism will be applied to established learner where they make
connections using fact based information, while constructivism will be applied to
sophisticated- learners where they use fact based information and knowledge of
connections to create greater understanding of a content area. The typical classroom has
myriads of learners who have different experiences, needs and learning styles. Teaching
and learning methodologies have to be constantly revised, changed and modified.

Students who learn about different cultures during their education feel more comfortable
and safe with these differences later in life. This allows them to interact in a wider range
of social groups and feel more confident in themselves as well as in their interactions
with others.

Learning styles are how we approach different tasks, whereas Multiple Intelligences
are a representation of different intellectual abilities. We process information in a variety
of different ways – visual (see), auditory (hear) and kina esthetic (touch) and reflective
(think), etc. Multiple intelligences refers to a theory describing the different ways
students learn and acquire information. These multiple intelligences range from the use of
words, numbers, pictures and music, to the importance of social interactions,
introspection, physical movement and being in tune with nature.
Remember that all learners have unique strengths and weaknesses, and a one-size-fits-all
approach to teaching doesn’t cater to a student’s individualism. By familiarizing yourself
with multiple intelligence theory and the different learning styles, you’ll be able to tap
into all your students’ strengths. By examining your learning style, you’ll become aware
of how your brain learns best. And if you know how you learn best, you can also
communicate more effectively with your instructors. Characteristics of visual learners
include: Prefers to read and write rather than listen.
Though both theories claim that dominant ideologies of intelligence inhibit our
understanding of human differences, learning styles are concerned with differences in the
process of learning, whereas multiple intelligences center on the content and products of
learning. One common misconception about multiple intelligences is that it means the
same thing as learning styles. Instead, multiple intelligences represents different
intellectual abilities. Learning styles, according to Howard Gardner, are the ways in
which an individual approaches a range of tasks.
Gardner’s theory teaches that teachers should not teach the same material to the entire
class rather individualize instruction by identifying students’ strengths and weaknesses.
One way of identifying students’ strengths and weaknesses is to offer a multiple
intelligence assessment. The theory of multiple intelligences is important because it
allows us to think about different types of mental strengths and abilities. Learning more
about which types of intelligence you lean towards may help you learn to recognize your
own preferences.

MODULE 6: LEARNER’S WITH EXEPTIONALITIES

A person who develops accommodations must be creative and willing to try new ideas
that may or may not work. Perseverance and patience are necessary attributes when
working in this field as results may take a while to come to fruition. In the end it is a
rewarding experience to know that through support and diligence a difference was made
in a child’s life and hope was given to allow them to take a step closer in achieving their
dreams.

BEED – III A
As a student, they must know what subjects can apply by behaviorism theory.
Basically, teachers give specific stimulus what they want and the students will respond.
This is an illustration about the theory. When the teacher want to teach about the gamut.
Teacher will observe the physical condition of students and also their basic skill. Then
teacher will give learning material as a stimulus and then they will explain about the
material related to gamut. Teacher will explain how to play the music instrument so the
sound will be good to hear. After that, students will provide feedback to the teacher.
Feedback means responses. They will practice playing musical. This is one of many
examples about behaviorism theory applying. There is a word, that is drilling. Drilling is
a stimulus from the teacher. Teacher give the questions to the students. Students will do
the questions. Some questions wrong, so the teacher repeat to give the questions.

As the interest in how the human mind works expands, so does the application of
information processing theory. Furthermore, it improves the understanding of how
various entities from individuals to entire organizations deal with information.

Reaction Paper about
BRUNNER’S CONSTRUCTIVIST THEORY
Bruner's theory on constructivism encompasses the idea of learning as an active process
wherein those learning are able to form new ideas based on what their current knowledge is as
well as their past knowledge. A cognitive structure is defined as the mental processes which offer
the learner the ability to organize experiences and derive meaning from them. These cognitive
structures allow the learner to push past the given information in constructing their new
concepts. The learner, often a child, will take pieces of their past knowledge and experiences and
organize them to make sense of what they know, then base further concepts and solve additional
problems based upon a combination of what they already processed and what they think should
be processed next.
Communication between the learner and teacher is the key concept. Socratic learning is
suggested as the best method of communication in this theoretical framework, as it allows the
teacher to actively note any study skills the learner verbalizes, their progression, their
frustrations, and form a rubric of their current learning state based on the dialogue. The four
major principles of Bruner's theory on constructivism encompass a predilection toward learning.
The second, how a grouping of knowledge is able to be constructed to best be understood by the
learner. The third is effective manners for the teacher to present said material to the learner, with
the fourth and final aspect being the progression of rewards as well as punishments.
Bruner is poignant about language and how this affects cognition within this theory of
learning development. It is pertinent to any success of a child to identify the differences between
adult language and the language used by children. With the child being younger, they need time
to advance not only their conceptual learning but their language as well. Thus, teachers and
parents alike are encouraged to envelop the “scaffolding” method of communication which is a
strategy aimed to simplifying tasks within learning by making smaller steps, all leading to the
final outcome. This aids in maintaining any frustration while keeping in mind what is important
throughout the learning process.
When evaluating study skills of the child, Bruner’s theory suggests that the teachers be
explicit regarding organization, help the learner to focus on the larger task at hand as well as the
goals, instead of getting caught on minor details or frustrations. They are encouraged to praise
the efforts put out by the learners while reminding them, helping them focus on relevant items,
and encouraging them to practice and rehearse what they have learned. Social as well as cultural
contingencies of learning were adapted into Bruner’s later work, theorizing how these affected
learning.
