Bridging Learning Theory, Instruction and Technology.

I am excited about this course as we begin to take a look at how the brain performs its assimilation and learning functions; and how we as teachers can make use of technology to facilitate instruction and learning, using the four major learning theories of Behaviorist, Cognitive, Constructivist/Constructionist, and Social Learning. There is no doubt that learning theories including the emergence of neuroscience, play a crucial part in education today and that when the appropriate technology tools are incorporated, the students’ learning needs will be met.
