Reaction paper
When Ms. Animo and Mr. Balios presented their report about the 14
LEARNER-CENTERED PSYCHOLOGICAL PRINCIPLES, they have
shown to us their capability of presenting a topic in a good way. I was
grateful because I was able to review what I have learned during my
college days. The purpose of this reaction paper is to react with the topic
or concept that the reporters have discussed and the way they deliver their
topic.
The learner-centered psychological principles are a set of guidelines that
describe how learners learn and how teachers can facilitate their
learning. They were developed by the American Psychological
Association in 1997 to provide a framework for educational reform and
school redesign.
A fundamental theory of cognitive and metacognitive theory is that the
process of purposefully creating meaning from data and experience is the
most efficient way to acquire complicated material. This implies that
students should actively interact with the content, make connections to
what they already know, and consider what they have learned. I agree
with this idea since I feel that learning happens best for me when I have a
purpose and a clear goal, as well as when I can relate what I'm learning
to things I already know or care about. For instance, I was more driven
and interested in learning about Philippine history because I could connect
it to my own cultural heritage and identity.
The idea that learners' expectations, goals, and beliefs have a significant
impact on their motivation to learn is one of the motivational and
affective principles. This means that students should expect to achieve
in their studies, establish ambitious yet reachable goals, and have realistic
but optimistic ideas about their skills. I concur with this idea since I believe
that a positive outlook and strong levels of self-efficacy can increase one's
self-assurance and drive to study. For example, when I first started
learning how to play badminton, I had confidence in my ability, I set out to
learn more, and I anticipated getting better with practice.
When it comes to understanding how students learn and how teachers
may support their learning, the learner-centered psychological principles
are an invaluable resource. They stress the significance of considering
the cognitive, motivational, developmental, social, and individual elements
that influence learning as well as the active and reflective nature of
learning and learners. These ideas, in my opinion, are significant and
helpful for both my own education and the system. In order to apply these
ideas in many situations and settings, assess their efficacy, and determine
how they affect learning outcomes, I believe that further study and practice
are needed.
