Video Analysis of Teaching (VAT) -Part III: Learning Theories & InstructionGraphic Organizer

EDUC 7703/7703 **Complete this table with examples from your observation, reflections, and citations from text. You are not expected to respond to each heading/concept; however, you are expected to exercise professional judgment as teachers and graduate students.

Note: For this VAT, you may use examples and reflections that extend beyond what is shown on your video lesson; however, please attempt to describe examples from the clip.

Learning Theory(ies) / **Note: Points will be deducted for insufficient citation from text mixed with your observations.
Give an overview of how CognitiveViews of Learning (including Vygotsky’s Social Constructivism and Piaget’s Cognitive Constructivism), Memory Theory, and Metacognition are applied to the instruction in your lesson.
For each theory, describe the instructional methods you used that demonstrate the application of that theory or examples of the concepts you observed in your classroom (finding a student’s ZPD, for example), explaining why you believe you have employed that theory. (You are not expected to use each of the components discussed in the book, but I have listed examples here for your convenience.) / A)Cognitive Views of Learning applications employed:
1)Social Cognivitism (Vygotsky)
  1. Interaction with others
  2. Cultural tools
  3. ZPD
  4. Scaffolding
  5. Guidance of Others
  6. Constructing and Internalizing shared meanings
2)Cognitive Constructivism (Piaget)
  1. Schema
  2. Assimilation/accommodation
  3. Teacher challenging current conceptions with new, unfitting ideas
  4. Interaction with others and world
  5. Students work individually and with others to construct schemas

B) Memory Theory applications employed:
Information Processing Model
  1. attention (see ch. 9 for 1-3)
  2. stimuli
  3. processing
  4. retrieval (see ch. 12)

C) Metacognition applications employed (see ch. 13):Note: You may choose to address one or both of the following indicators of metacognition in your classroom, BUT YOU MUST CHOOSE AT LEAST ONE!
1. Evidence of Effective Learning and Study Strategies (p. 328 ff)
2. Evidence of Guidelines for Promoting Effective Strategies (p. 354 ff)
D) Self-Regulated learning: How do you promote SRL? What are evidences that your students
practice SRL?
Instruction
If you believe some or all of the instructional methods were effective as you employed them, explain why, citing what you have learned about learning theory and instruction in class and in your reading.
If you believe some or all of the instructional methods could be more effective by employing other learning theories or strategies, explain what you would do to change the lesson or its execution, citing what you have learned about learning theory and instruction in class in and your reading.
