14 Learner-Centered Principles

Posted by CMCACALDA19on OCTOBER 23, 2017

The LCP were put together by the American Psychological Association. The following 14
psychological principles pertain to the learner and the earning process.

The 14 principles are divided into those referring to:

– Cognitive and metacognitive

– Motivational and affective

– Developmental and social

– Individual difference factors

COGNITIVE AND METACOGNITIVE FACTOR

1. Nature of Learning Process

the learning of complex subject matter is most effective when it is an international process of
constructing meaning from information and experience.

2. Goals of the Learning Process

the successful learner, over time and with support and instructional guidance, can create
meaningful, coherent representations of knowledge.

3. Construction of Knowledge

the successful learner can link new information with existing knowledge in meaningful ways.

Knowledge widens and deepens as students continue to build links between new information
and experiences and their existing knowledge base.

4. Strategic Thinking

the successful learner can create and use a repertoire of thinking and reasoning strategies to
achieve complex learning goals.

Successful learners use in their approach to learning reasoning, problem solving, and concept
learning.
5. Thinking about thinking

Successful learners can reflect on how they think and learn, set reasonable learning or
performances goals, select potentially appropriate learning strategies or methods, and monitor
their progress towards these goals.

6. Context of Learning

Learning is influenced by environmental factors, including culture, technology and instructional


practices.

MOTIVATIONAL AND AFFECTIVE FACTOR

7. Motivational and emotional influences on learning

the rich internal world of thoughts, beliefs, goals, and expectation for success or failure can
enhance or interfere with the learner’s quality of thinking and information processing.

8. Intrinsic motivation to learn

Intrinsic motivation is stimulated by tasks of optimal novelty and difficulty, relevant to personal
interests, and providing for personal choice and control.

9. Effects of motivation on effort

Effort is another major indicator of motivation to learn. The acquisition of complex knowledge
and skills demands the investment of considerable learner energy and strategic effort, along
with persistence over time.

DRVELOPMENTAL AND SOCIAL FACTOR

10. Developmental influences on learning

learning is most effective when differential developmental within and across physical,
intellectual, emotional, and social domains is taken into account.

Individuals learn best when material is appropriate to their developmental level and is
presented in an enjoyable and interesting way.

11. Social influences on learning


Learning can be enhanced when the learner has an opportunity to interact and to collaborate
with others on instructional tasks.

INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES FACTOR

12. Individual differences in learning

Individuals are born with and develop their own capabilities and talents.

Educators need to help students examine their learning preferences and expand or modify
them, if necessary.

13. Learning and diversity

the same basic principles of learning, motivation, and effective instruction apply to all learners.

14. Standards and assessment

Assessment provides important information to both the learner and teacher at all stages of the
learning process.

Alexander and Murphy gave a summary of the 14 principles and distilled them into five areas:

1. The knowledge base

One’s knowledge serves as the foundation of all future learning.

2. Strategic processing and control

Learners can develop skills to reflect and regulate their thoughts and behaviors in order to learn
more effectively.

3. Motivation and affect

Factors such as intrinsic motivation, reasons for wanting to learn, personal goals and enjoyment
of learning tasks all have a crucial role in the learning process.

4. Development and Individual Differences

Learning is a unique journey for each person because each learner has his own unique
combination of genetic and environmental factors that influence him.

5. Situation or context

Learning happens in the context of a society as well as within an individual.
