LEARNING TO BE A
BETTER STUDENT
LEARNING
A relatively permanent changes in behavior brought
about by practice and experience (Coon, 2011)
Acquisition of information or mastery of skills that
brought changes not only in how the person thinks
and feels but more importantly in how he behaves
LEARNING does not always happen
automatically for there are many factors that
affect the process of learning, some of these
factors are:
•Characteristics of the learner (includes learner’s
level of intelligence, physiological condition, mindset
and interest)
•Information/Material to be learned (how interesting
and comprehensive the material is)
•Situation in which learning should take place
•(conduciveness of the learning venue, the teacher and
availability of resources)
PHYSIOLOGICAL BASIS OF
LEARNING
Parts of the brain, specifically the cortex, the
cerebrum, amygdala and hippocampus are in-tune
with reality and everything else that happen in the
external world and internal world of the learner
(Carlson, 1995)
THE LIMBIC SYSTEM
1.Cerebrum
Biggest and most highly developed part of the human
brain. Its functions involve mental processes such as
thinking, perceiving, producing and understanding
language.
2. Cerebral Cortex
A higher brain center where most of the information
processing happens. It covers the cerebrum and
involved in functions including
determining intelligence, planning and organization,
and processing sensory information.
3. Hippocampus
Responsible for processing and storing short term
memory.
4. Amygdala
Responsible for emotions, survival instincts and
memory.
PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS OF
LEARNING
Stimulus
Sensory
from the Sensation
Apparatus
environment

Perception: Brain: data


Reaction/ Giving maybe used
Behavior meaning to or stored in
data memory
TYPES OF LEARNING
Psychologists discovered through experiments on
animals and its applicability to human beings, that
learning may occur in two ways:
1.Association or Associative Learning
Takes place by associating stimulus to a response to a
reinforcement.
Processes involved in such learning:
•Classical Conditioning by Ivan Pavlov
Examples of learning through this conditioning:
-The aroma of your mother’s cooking makes you
happy.
-Having a certain song makes you feel sad.
•Operant Conditioning by B.F Skinner
Examples of learning through this conditioning:
Studying hard for the quiz because you expect good
grades
Taking your vitamins everyday so you won’t get sick
2. COGNITIVE LEARNING
•A type of learning through conscious mental activities
like thinking, understanding and remembering.
•In this approach, learning may occur in two ways:
•Latent learning
•Observational learning
Latent learning
•Acquisition of data stored then in memory for later
use.
Example: Learning disaster drills may prove useful
when real disaster strikes.
Observational Learning
Proposed by Albert Bandura
According to Bandura, people can also learn by
observing and initiating a model (Feldman, 2010)
Example: Carlos saw his friend studying and got
high grades, so Carlos studied hard too.
FACTORS FOR LEARNING THROUGH
MODELING TO TAKE PLACE
1. Attention
2. Retention
3. Model Reproduction
4. Motivation/Reinforcement
METACOGNITION
•According to Flavel, it is the process by which
a person thinks about, monitors, or observes
his own thinking process.
•Meta means ‘beyond’, therefore it involves
processes that are beyond ordinary thinking.
THREE COMPONENTS OF
METACOGNITION
1. METACOGNITIVE KNOWLEDGE
•Knowing how the person learns and the belief about
learning himself and others
•Awareness of how one processes information and
strategies he uses to optimize learning
2. METACOGNITIVE EXPERIENCE
•Affective aspect of the learning process
•Feelings help the person understand his
response to the whole process of learning
3. METACOGNITIVE
STRATEGIES
•Techniques used by the person to monitor his
learning progress
•OBJECTIVES OF THESE STRATEGIES:
•Control his thinking activities
•Keep him on track towards completion of his
learning goals
STUDY STRATEGIES
•Also known as study skills
These are techniques used to maximize learning
to get high grades
SEVEN LEARNING STYLES
1. VISUAL
2. PHYSICAL
3. AURAL
4. VERBAL
5. LOGICAL
6. SOCIAL
7. SOLITARY
GUIDES TO EFFECTIVE
LEARNING
1. Have a plan as to when it is the best time to
study and stick to this plan
2. Start reviewing the most difficult subject
first
3. Have a specific place for studying
4. Outline and write notes
5. Use mnemonics (memory aids)
6. Take notes during lectures and review notes
during weekends or if possible, read through
them everyday.
7. Study in groups
MANAGING YOUR LEARNING:
SELF-REGULATED LEARNING
Self-Regulated Learning
- A form of self-empowered learning wherein
the learner is active and self-guided in
monitoring his own study.
TECHNIQUES TO GUIDE THE
SELF-REGULATED LEARNER
1. Have a specific learning goal in mind
2. Have a learning strategy
3. Be your own teacher
4. Monitor progress
5. Reinforce yourself
6. Evaluate your progress and goals
7. Take corrective action
8. Boost motivation
QUIZ
C
1.Parts of the brain, cortex, cerebellum, amygdala
and hippocampus are in tune with reality and
everything that happens in the internal and
external world of the learner.
2.Cerebral cortex involves mental processes such
as producing and understanding language.
4. The physiological process of learning starts with the
sensory apparatus and ends with the reaction/behavior.
5. Cognitive learning begins with mental activities such
as thinking, understanding and remembering.
6. One example of classical conditioning is having a
certain song that makes you sad.
7. Metacognitive strategies include the strategies to be
used to optimize learning
•And awareness of how one processes
information.
•8-10. Give atleast three examples of learning
styles.
