Post 1 – Learning, Theory, and Motivation

The main idea in videos that I mainly disagree with is the point that main characters make it to the end of the video. The reason I disagree with the idea is that even more strong characters have to die in the course of the video. Contrary, the main character or the star of the video even with severe injuries makes it to end.

Prolonged introduction concept that inclines to be lengthy and can have a tedious attitude making the readings or videos seems boring. Consequently, I utilize self-management skill that helps me to copy with the concept. This skill helps me regulate and control my actions, feelings and thoughts keeping me in still to progress with the reading or video.

The main learning challenge is encounter in readings and videos are attention difficulties. Ideally, I experience great challenge is focusing my attention for more than 20 minutes consecutively. Nonetheless, to overcome attention difficulties in learning, I leverage interests and sometimes allow movement up and down within the room or take a break to refresh my mind.

My best learning experience was during the intern period. I was able to exercise my future career and had time to socialize with workers and understand office ethics. The reason I enjoyed it is that it was more practical and applicable from the theory we I have being going through in lectures.

In the behaviorist approach, the teachers has to ensure that learners have direct interaction with present environmental areas that have likely of experiencing climate change. Besides, with cognitivist approach, the teachers has to create time within his lesson plan and ask the learners questions related to climate change to confirm if they are understanding and able to remember the topic (Pourfarhad, 149). Nonetheless, in the constructivist approach of learning, the teacher as to provide time for the learner to make their own reflects in climate change rather than taking them through the whole concept.

In my career development, I have significantly experienced learning through all the three learning approaches. For instance, I have encountered behaviorism learning approach during practical period when the instructors gives us time to do practicals. Additionally, cognitivism learning has continued to happen in my daily basis as the instructor asks us questions related to previous lesson enabling me to have high memory to remember and think. Constructionism learning approach has being by path to learn more from study content as I keep research on my career to ensure I have more knowledge in future.

I consider my current instruction constructivist. This is because I have the freedom to research and work on my own to increase my experience and knowledge. For example, I have made more research on my course and gone extend of solving hard tasks within the course on my own.
