    My modified behaviorist approach to my learning outcome is learning the effects on conditioning and cognition constructivism, assimilations, equilibration, and motivation. It help us understand the way we learn and evaluate our outcome of a theory. Cognition develops stage to stage adaptive modes of thinking and reasoning. It is a process concept to understanding evolution and cognition. For example, I have two cousins; they are a set of twins. They are totaling different. Their behavior is modified and learned. Their behavior is genetic and learned through the environment. Basically, you have to use instruction to emphasis the cooperation in learning. Learning outcomes controls the thoughts, behaviors, emotions, and physical change of the brains.…

    My personal philosophy about educational process is to gear a system that facilitates students’ learning. Learning as is understood by an enrichment of their previous knowledge, significantly linked personal experiences that they may keep it permanently and apply in the future. Those approaches are my understanding of the Transformative Learning Theory by Jack Mezirow. This theory is the framework that I have in mind because the subjacent goal of teaching is to make autonomous thinkers ready to interact successfully in a social and working environment.…

    I achieved my learning outcome by doing many practice using this skill in this semester for mid-term such as fast food and how to make chocolate. My evidence that I have achieved in this skill was in week 11 I use my notes to write a summary of a lecture which I listened to about Jamie Olive discusses the unhealthy eating habits of children in the united states. However, at the beginning of the semester I was not able to do at this skill but now I can use my notes to write a summary of a lecture l have listened to. I used many strategies to develop the learning outcome. For example, I got a useful application called TED from APP Store which was included many lecture about different types such as technology, entertainment, design, education and health so I listened to some lecture and take notes then used it to write a summary. Moreover, I learn how to take notes in a way that is helpful and faster. For example, I use some special letter and symbols to save time and try to break the notes into topics or chapters in order.…

    Learning from Others

    Most people want their children to have more than they did or at least the same type of upbringing that they believe made them the type of person they are but some parents have begun to question which things should be important. Over scheduling children's lives has become an issue that individuals, families and others have been exploring as many parents find they are so involved in shuttling their children to activities that they have little time to really interact as a family. Over the last year or so, I have watched a friend of my mom's struggling with this issue. She was raised in a very middle class environment, the child of two middle class hardworking parents in Guatemala. She and her siblings were involved in Soccer and Swimming, music lessons, and after school Catholicism classes, while summers were spent in day camp at the grade school, art lessons, little league and pony tail, music camp, church camp, the list seems endless. Despite the schedule, the family still ate dinner together daily. By the time she reached high school, she did not always make the best decisions but she believes that she never really got into trouble because she was involved in so many activities and she also believes that the activities really enriched her life—music camp and sports netted her friendships that she maintains more than twenty five years later. As an adult, she had grown to appreciate her mother's commitment in getting two children to private lessons, soccer and swimming practices, and numerous other activities throughout the years. In addition, several years before she began her family, she watched an HBO program featuring recovering teenage drug addicts and every single young person stressed the importance of keeping children involved in activities.…

    Several years ago, I heard someone say, “Values are caught, not taught.” At first, this sounded counterintuitive and completely wrong. Seriously, I thought, values are so important and significant in the life of any family, any organization, and to any group, how could they be left to be casually, haphazardly caught? Shouldn’t a person or group be intentional about how it teaches deeply-held values? It seemed careless to leave the communicating of values to something as nonchalant, and perhaps accidental, as allowing them to be caught.…
