🧠 Learning Theories

Behaviorism states all stimuli are followed by a response based on the environment in which the individual is. (Positive and negative reinforcement)

Constructivism indicates knowledge is a construction of the human being as a product of its relationship with the environment, its own capabilities, and previous schemes.

Socio-constructivism is characterized by describing learning as a process where social interaction is key to obtaining knowledge.

This theory proposes the human being relates the new knowledge with those it already possesses. Meaningful learning is based on obtaining quality learning and understanding of concepts.

The Learning by discovery theory considers effective learning is obtained when students face a problem not only to solve it but to transfer it.

Social learning is obtained as a consequence of mental processes and the relationship with the environment. Modeling is essential in the learning process.

The theory proposes every human being has eight intelligences. Not everyone processes information and learns in the same way.
