Download or read book How People Learn II written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2018-09-27 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many reasons to be curious about the way people learn, and the past several decades have seen an explosion of research that has important implications for individual learning, schooling, workforce training, and policy. In 2000, How People Learn: Brain, Mind, Experience, and School: Expanded Edition was published and its influence has been wide and deep. The report summarized insights on the nature of learning in school-aged children; described principles for the design of effective learning environments; and provided examples of how that could be implemented in the classroom. Since then, researchers have continued to investigate the nature of learning and have generated new findings related to the neurological processes involved in learning, individual and cultural variability related to learning, and educational technologies. In addition to expanding scientific understanding of the mechanisms of learning and how the brain adapts throughout the lifespan, there have been important discoveries about influences on learning, particularly sociocultural factors and the structure of learning environments. How People Learn II: Learners, Contexts, and Cultures provides a much-needed update incorporating insights gained from this research over the past decade. The book expands on the foundation laid out in the 2000 report and takes an in-depth look at the constellation of influences that affect individual learning. How People Learn II will become an indispensable resource to understand learning throughout the lifespan for educators of students and adults.

Download or read book How People Learn written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2000-08-11 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First released in the Spring of 1999, How People Learn has been expanded to show how the theories and insights from the original book can translate into actions and practice, now making a real connection between classroom activities and learning behavior. This edition includes far-reaching suggestions for research that could increase the impact that classroom teaching has on actual learning. Like the original edition, this book offers exciting new research about the mind and the brain that provides answers to a number of compelling questions. When do infants begin to learn? How do experts learn and how is this different from non-experts? What can teachers and schools do-with curricula, classroom settings, and teaching methods--to help children learn most effectively? New evidence from many branches of science has significantly added to our understanding of what it means to know, from the neural processes that occur during learning to the influence of culture on what people see and absorb. How People Learn examines these findings and their implications for what we teach, how we teach it, and how we assess what our children learn. The book uses exemplary teaching to illustrate how approaches based on what we now know result in in-depth learning. This new knowledge calls into question concepts and practices firmly entrenched in our current education system. Topics include: How learning actually changes the physical structure of the brain. How existing knowledge affects what people notice and how they learn. What the thought processes of experts tell us about how to teach. The amazing learning potential of infants. The relationship of classroom learning and everyday settings of community and workplace. Learning needs and opportunities for teachers. A realistic look at the role of technology in education.

This is for basic, but for advanced, it is to support the computer application knowledge of the intermediate and advance computer users, who perform their daily activities with computer. By comparison, appreciation is different from application, which is the technical impart of understanding how to use application programs of computer through practices. Meaning that their key different is the ability to perform effectively in application via the knowledge gained from the appreciation.

In this form, the knowledge-gained about these components will help students in learning computer maintenance and repair, troubleshooting identification, and how to manage computer threats as all of them are the central teachings in CAplus-4, which also taught about the basic maintenance and repair of Windows Computers. For the CAplus-3, the general study of computer appreciation is not complete without the introduction of computer application, and since Windows Operating System (OS) is the main OS in the work of CAplus, therefore "windows appreciation" was written as a prepared take-off ground for computer application training. To widen the book (i.e. the CAplus-3), the concept of file, and folder were treated, including other Chapter topics on "internet appreciation," "computer threats appreciation," and "evaluating of PC quality." So the studying objectives are as follows: know how to setup a desktop computer; know the basic integral parts of Desktop; know the basic integral parts of Windows; know the basic, necessary, uses and functions of the control panel of Windows OS; gain the preparation ground for Windows and other software maintenance; know how to access the Windows tools of a computer; know the components of Windows Operating System; understand the scope of Internet and its application; understand what is virus and malware; understand how to remove and prevent computer threat; and how to evaluate the quality of a personal computer.
