| Summary: | The attempt of the scientists to understand and explain/describe the
mechanisms of human learning has been an ongoing and important concern with
implications in various fields of endeavor. Thus, the variety of learning theories that
are objectified in learning models or styles is explained.
In the present study, we analyze the most important psychological theories of
learning, viewed from the perspective of an environment that is increasingly present
in people's lives, when we talk about learning - the virtual environment. A
reassessment of these theories is important, because although they are well-known,
they have an explanatory power, facilitating learning in the online environment, with
the mention of correctly capturing the pedagogical/educational demands of
designing such an activity.
On a practical-applicative level, we have carried out pedagogical microresearch of a constative type, following the attitude of teachers towards learning
carried out in virtual environments, the challenges that the act of designing entails,
psycho-pedagogical demands of learning in the virtual environment. The
questionnaire applied to more than 100 teachers in pre-university education captures
their needs regarding the organization of the training space in the virtual environment.
So, the ubiquity of learning is a modern characteristic of instruction and
education, it remains for teachers to identify solutions for achievement, adaptation
to situations and contexts as different as possible, as well as revaluing the
psychological theories of learning from the perspective of technological learning
environments. |
