  • People actively construct or create their own subjective representations of objective reality
  • learning is an active, contextualized process of constructing knowledge rather than acquiring it
  • Knowledge is constructed based on personal experiences and hypotheses of the environment.

      I think this process of constructing new knowledge based on what one already knows is often true - much of this probably happens in the unconscious. Though also at times I think people do just accept something.

      I don't think learners are 'passive' responding to environmental stimuli. Some of the time they are, but not all of the time.
  • behavior is shaped through positive reinforcement or negative reinforcement.
  • behaviorist work was done with animals

      So moves away from Behaviorism which considers external stimuli, and starts to look at what is going on in the mind to start with.
  • Mental processes such as thinking, memory, knowing, and problem-solving need to be explored
  • A response to behaviorism, people are not “programmed animals” that merely respond to environmental stimuli; people are rational beings that require active participation in order to learn, and whose actions are a consequence of thinking

      this distinction is important - sees learners as having abilities to think and not just react/respond

      that our students tend to only respond to discussion boards when they are assessed, suggests a stronger impact of Behaviourism here rather than humanism
  • Carl Rogers and Abraham Maslow
  • humanism, learning is student centered and personalized, and the educator’s role is that of a facilitator

  • This proved to be quite difficult as the problems experienced by students studying totally online are different to those who are having face-to-face as well as online experiences

      I wonder what you meant that the problems are different?
  • These quizzes attempt to personalise the resource to a particular student’s needs rather than requiring them to spend time locating resources within the website as a whole

      wow I really like this - how the support then offered is informed by the answer the student gives in the quiz to their readyness
  • It is hoped that future developments will include: Collaboration with departments/faculties to provide links to additional resources that have been

    Even the fabled personalization that digital learning affords is really a form of mass customization. There is no personal relationship. It is a market of knowledge where no one is known and care is limited to the provision of choices. Whether its crusaders are venture capitalists, entrepreneurs, academics, or students, the colonizer is a transactional view of education, centered on knowledge as a commodity, which displaces a relational view of education, centered on developing through relationships. This in turn becomes, like all precious resources of colonial territories, no longer a common good but a leisurely privilege.
