This type of learning has been linked to:

What physiological characteristic is this?

• many children in primary grades are at this stage
• individuals think more in terms of what they can't do than what they can do

what stage of development is this?

During this stage:

• learners consider viewpoints other their own
• can understand reversibility, inversion, reciprocity and conservation

this stage characterizes the higher level of thought

knowledge

comprehension

application

1. using smaller groups
2. increasing time for instruction and practice
3. scaffolding instruction

are both examples of what Bloom's category

retention

"retaining new learning"

• degree of original learning
• feeling tone

-rewarded behaviors will reoccur

-punished behaviors will disappear

• success
• interest level
• degree of original learning

are all principles of...
