WEEK 8

ASSALAMUALAIKUM.


This week on Tuesday in psychology of learning class with Dr.Lihanna, we continue our lecture on the interesting subtopic which is “Modeling” under social cognitive theory. We noted in the class last week, that children easily imitate others around them. So, in this week class we got to know various ways modeling can affect behavior, types of effective model influence learning and the kinds of behaviors that can be modeled.


                                         
               

 For Thursday class, we learn on the new topic which is “Cognitive Theories of Learning”. In this lecture, we noted that learning can’t occur if learner not processes the information and learner also must be active. We also learned on the cognitivism VS behavioursm. They look at the same things related to learning but different in describing.
            Furthermore, we learn on “Gestalt Psychology. This perspective ideas including that the perception is often different from reality and the whole is more than the sum of its parts.
