Education is more than textbooks and
0:05
lectures. It's a combination of ideas
0:07
that shape how we learn, teach, and
0:09
grow. Here are 10 groundbreaking
0:12
theories that transformed education as
0:17
John Dwey believed that education should
0:19
be dynamic learning by doing with
0:21
classrooms as microcosms of democratic
0:24
society. Knowledge isn't just absorbed.
0:27
It's constructed through experience and
0:32
Gene Pia revealed that learners advance
0:35
through distinct cognitive stages,
0:37
sensory, motor, pre-operational,
0:39
concrete, operational, and formal, each
0:41
demanding tailored support for growth.
0:46
Levagotssky emphasized that learning
0:48
happens socially, supported by more
0:50
knowledgeable peers or teachers within a
0:53
learner's zone of proximal development.
0:58
Maria Monttoauri believed the
0:59
environment itself can be a teacher. A
1:02
thoughtfully arranged prepared
1:03
environment empowers children to learn
1:09
BF Skinner's behaviorism rests on the
1:11
power of rewards and reinforcements.
1:14
By rewarding desired behaviors, learning
1:16
becomes both predictable and shaped.
1:21
Jerome Bruner introduced scaffolding,
1:24
guiding learners with temporary support
1:26
structures that are eventually removed
1:32
Howard Gardner challenged the notion of
1:34
a single intelligence, proposing we each
1:36
have unique strengths, linguistic,
1:38
spatial, logical, and more, shaping how
1:46
Benjamin Bloom reimagined learning as a
1:48
hierarchy moving from remembering to
1:50
understanding, applying, analyzing,
1:53
evaluating, and finally creating.
1:59
Palo Freri urged us to confront
2:00
education critically, enabling students
2:03
to question, reflect, and engage in
2:05
social transformation through practice.
2:10
David Co highlighted that learning is a
2:12
cycle, concrete experience, reflection,
2:15
abstract conceptualization, and active
2:18
testing. Each stage essential to growth.
2:22
From DUI's experiential classrooms to
2:25
FR's transformative dialogue, these 10
2:27
theories remind us that education is
2:29
more than knowledge. It's engagement,
2:31
reflection, empowerment, and change.
2:34
Which of these theories resonates most
2:36
with your learning journey?
2:40
Thank you for visiting simply
2:43
We hope you can now distinguish each of
2:45
the different theories and apply which
2:46
one you believe is applicable in your
2:48
school. Have a good day.
