  • This is, however, on the basis that the video has been uploaded with the permission of the rightsholder and thus not infringing copyright in the first place.

Vicarious Learning | IGI Global - 0 views

  • However, the specific suggestion we address here is that vicarious learning is a distinct idea that may have its own implications, particularly for distance learners and others whose access to normal learning dialogue is limited.
  • Vicarious learning accordingly arises in situations where a learning experience is witnessed and reacted to as a learning experience by another learner.
  • This is a clear example of vicarious learning where the focus of the learning episode is some cognitive skill or understanding

Nonconceptual content and objectivity - 0 views

  • In general, we may regard a perceptual experience as an informational state of the subject: it has a certain content -- the world is represented a certain way -- and hence it permits of a non-derivative classification as true or false. For an internal state to be so regarded, it must have appropriate connections with behaviour -- it must have a certain motive force upon the actions of the subject.... The informational states which a subject acquires through perception are non-conceptual, or nonconceptualised. Judgements based upon such states necessarily involve conceptualisation.
