  2. A Blend of Behaviorism & Cognitivism Nine events of instruction Behaviorist roots with a cognitive information-processing perspective Behaviorism • The mind = “black box” • Internal mental state/consciousness not important • Stimulus – Response Cognitivism • The mind (“black box”) should be opened & understood • Learner = information processor/computer

  3. Behaviorism Principles Learning is: • a correct response following a specific environmental stimulus • detected by observing an organism over time Emphasis on: • observable and measurable behaviors • relationships between environmental variables and behavior Instruction utilizes consequences and reinforcement of learned behaviors Behavior is guided by purpose

  4. Cognitivism Principles Learning is: • an active process within learner • influenced by the learner • a change in knowledge state • a mental activity using internal coding & structuring • dependent upon what the learner does to process information Emphasis on: • the building blocks of knowledge • structuring, organizing and sequencing information to produce optimal processing • how information is remembered, stored & retrieved • problem solving
