According to social constructivism, human beings construct knowledge from collaboration with others. The key concept for this theory is the “social interaction”, which leads to meaningful interaction.
Vigotsky also describes learning in two levels: the actual developmental level for already incorporated knowledge and the concept of potential developmental level for the knowledge we acquire after we learn. Although he also identifies the zone of proximal developmental level for the knowledge we’re currently acquiring. Is in this last level where the learning takes place because we should interact with others in order to gain abilities and skills.

According to this school of thought knowledge is constructed by humans. They acquire knowledge when their mental structure is ready for it (readiness principle). For this theory, maturation precedes learning. 

Piaget also describes learning in one level development: When we receive knowledge our mental structure goes through the process of assimilation. When we incorporate that knowledge we go through the accommodation process. Finally, when we connect the new knowledge with the previous one, we go through the adaptation process and there's equilibrium again.

Chomsky puts emphasis on language acquisition. He says that we born with the capacity of acquiring language. 

 The exposure to the language in the immediate environment leads to the baby soon beginning to act. All children acquiring the same language depending on their countries, enviroment, setting and mother tongue.

According to this theory, the behavior obeyed to certain stimuli provided by the environment.
Skinner introduced the “reinforcement” concept, which refers to the actions carried out by someone to increase or decrease the probability of something to happen. This shapes the behavior. Skinner also differentiated between two types of reinforcement: punishment and reward. Both concepts can be positive or negative.
Skinner's experiments were very successful in showing

that certain behaviour in animals could be developed and controlled

by conditioning and reinforcement.

According to this school of thought, to learn something we should tie up the new items to the already existing cognitive concepts. Learning can be divided into rote learning, where the new concepts are isolated and not associated with meaningful learning, where we connect the new material with the established entities in cognitive structure. This last type leads to retention. Although meaningfulness can also be manufactured if it is necessary or the person is highly motivated to do so.
 Another important concept tackled by this theory is the “systematic forgetting”. Both previous concepts lead to learning but in the first case, the retention is short, while in the second case the retention is longer. ]]> 2021-06-30 00:35:40 UTC https://padlet.com/irinacriado/rm00auxr35n0ttak/wish/1630784825 irinacriado https://padlet.com/irinacriado/rm00auxr35n0ttak/wish/1646276954 2nd 1st]]> 2021-07-12 19:12:55 UTC https://padlet.com/irinacriado/rm00auxr35n0ttak/wish/1646276954
