On the contrary, aural study strategies engage “attending classes, discussions, and tutorials, discussing topics with others and teachers, and using a tape recorder.” People who are good listeners and learn better by hearing have aural strategies. Kinesthetic strategies, however, require you to completely take notes and fully engage yourself. Another comparison can be between read/write strategies and visual strategies. Visual strategies “use symbolism and different formats, fonts and colors to emphasize important points. It does not include video and pictures that show real images and it is not visual merely because it is shown on a screen.” It is similar to read/write strategies because read/write strategies also engage using your eyes to read but visual strategies use things that are prominent to your eyes.
The fourth and last level relates to text in the English language, for the most part texting is related to a psychologist as nothing more than a group of related words linked to form of paragraph. Whereas, when a person accept a text they must first decode the message to interpret it. Language in Cognitive Psychology It is obvious that language has a great impact on the way an individual think. When an individual think of theories and dilemmas the concept of thinking consist of an individual mature language. Benjamin
In a classroom setting you have direct social interaction engaging with the instructor and other students. However you could be limited in learning by how the instructor teaches the material. If there is a subject that the instructor is not fond of they could gloss over it or make it sound not so important by the tone use to teach the material. In an online course an outline of the curriculum is provided but the learning technique is up to the student on how that material is learned. The instructor guides the student to learn for themselves but provides information along the way.
It explained the different ways that critical thinking is used in both are every day and academic lives, also it talked about the way an individual may react in a different situation when it comes to critical thinking, For example, in an academic setting a person is going to think about an answer or question so they can provide a more detail and accurate answer, before answering and asking. It a more social setting a person might take lesser time before reacting to the question or discussion he or she is involved in. Does the information reflect a bias on the author’s part? If so, what is the
Class attendance facilitates learning in a variety of ways. For example lectures supplement reading assignments and classroom presentations present information differently than the text. Discussion and elaboration of topics provides current information that may not be found in the textbook. Hearing the comments and questions of other students can answer questions many students may have. Instructors can use class discussion to enhance critical thinking skills.
Language Paper Lisa Draxler PSY/360 February 7, 2011 E.W.Newlin Abstract The primary focus of this paper is language and how it relates to cognition. This paper will define language and lexicon and provide the similarities and differences of each. This paper will evaluate the key features of language, describe the four levels of language structure and processing, and analyze the role of language processing in cognitive psychology. Language Paper Language in itself is a complex concept in itself. Language is defined to be a communication of thoughts and feelings through a system of random signals.
They will need to plan how they are going to carry out the research and collect their results for use in Part 2 and Part 3. The research can be carried out during lessons or as a homework exercise. Candidates complete Part 1 under limited control. The work of individual candidates may be informed by working with others and work may be completed out of the classroom but candidates must provide an individual response. Teachers may give generic, informal feedback while the work is being completed but may not indicate what candidates need to do to improve their work.
This is the process operating when the tutor explains the assignment. • Depending on student's previous experiences and expectations, their perceptual filters will interfere with the message that they receive. • Both the tutor's verbal and non-verbal communication – in particular, aspects of paralanguage such as emphasis – will communicate which bits of the instructions are most important. Verbal communication varies in its accessibility for students, as they may have different levels of understanding of the instructions (especially if English is not their first language). Non-verbal language may support or contradict verbal messages.
Once the teacher feels the students have a grasp on the concept the teacher will realease the students to work on some of their problems in the book. This is not a group assignment and students should work on the problems themselves. V. Reflective Assessment and Evaluation Asessment: Students will work on preselected problems out of the book while the teacher and instructional aide walk around and make sure they are on task. At this time students may ask for help if needed. If there is several questions on the same problems it’s a good idea if the teacher gets the attention of the class and works that problem on the board with the students following
“It is important to realize that if students view strategy instruction and learning as simply a matter of fulfilling the requirements of the syllabus, it is unlikely that they will internalize strategies discussed in class and use them as tools for achieving progress in learning.” (Zhang, 2011). Learning your styles will help to familiarize yourself with your strongest points of learning down to what you need help
