SITUATED COGNITION
SITUATED COGNITION
The idea that learning results from complex
social interaction is central to the theory of
situated cognition.
 Brown et al. (1989) called that theory of
learning a process of enculturation and applied
it not only to how craft apprentices learn their
trades but also to how students learn.

SITUATED COGNITION

Vygotsky (1977) thinking, knowing, and
understanding are the result of sociohistorical
experience.
 (Gredler, 1997). That experience includes using
and understanding the signs and symbols of one's
culture to become part of a social group
 (Rogoff, 1984).Children and other novices receive
information about their culture's tools and
practices through interaction with experienced
members of the culture
EXPLANATION



This theory is about the self-learning process of an individual
in a given situation. The daily experiences in real life
situation teach him to response or on how to emerge to
given problems.
True application-based learning experience that should
result in a lasting knowledge. Someone has to undergo a
"trial and error experience tempered by mentors who were
willing to help and share their wisdom" and arrived at a more
meaningful experience.
The key is there is an opportunity for problem solving and
application-based learning , coupled with an interaction with
those who are well equipped to mentor in a given area.
