Learning Term Papers Samples For Students

Many students groan and cringe when they are told that they have to work as a team. Regardless of the negative attitudes that students have developed towards working as a team, group work has been proved to be healthy for both students and teachers as well. Even in the real job market, most employers want employees who have already developed teamwork skills, as this will help when it comes to relating with co-workers(Caruso &Wooley, 2008). In addition, students who take part in collaborative learning end up getting better marks and grades as compared to individuals who do not prefer ...

There are many similarities from chapter 5 to 12 that deal with a variety of learning difficulties. For the teacher in a practical setting, these similarities have implications for assisting students with difficulties outside of the norm. It is the opinion of the writer that the teacher needs to do the following; observation, assessment, adapting to the individual, communication and the need for inclusiveness for the disabilities mentioned.

1. Observation

Many students will be formally assessed before entering an educational facility however there may be cases when a student has a condition that has not been noticed by the family. In other cases the student ...

In the past few decades, the debate regarding payment for college athletes has become a pressing issue for higher education, necessitating a deeper look into the consequences of paying college athletes such high amounts for their playing. Some argue that the emphasis on athletics in the higher education experience has left other departments hurting for funds, leaving the budget for actual academics lower while athletes are allowed to focus on sports instead of learning. However, the purpose of this research paper is to argue that college athletes’ current high compensation is justified, due to the profits that schools bring in from ...

My road to success has a simple formula; to dream, to plan and then finally execute. I know there’s nothing remarkable about this formula; but this has been my motivating factor leading me from a budding student to a business professional. I always knew I wanted to do business or be a part of a large corporate but I failed to understand how to do it.
We all know the importance of theory vs. practical. One can’t understand certain things until you really experience it. Entrepreneurship and business is one such concept. Definitely reading and education courses develop your knowledge and ...

Introduction

Huxhold, Miche and Schuz (2013) conducted a study on the on the importance of informal social settings in the old age. The study has exceptionally useful findings. In their longitudinal study that targeted middle-aged and older adults, these authors assessed the age-deferential effects of having family or friends in the old age. The study showed that social associations have an impact on the well-being of old people. The type of social association (with family or friends) determines whether the impact is positive or negative. Huxhold, Miche and Schuz (2013) examined the impact of having close friends and/or family in the ...

The Transformative learner

According to Jack Mezirow (1996), transformative learning is the process of using prior interpretation to construe a revised or a new interpretation of the meaning of an individual's experience in order to guide future actions" The transformative learning theory outlines the process of perspective transformation as having three broad dimensions,Behavioral,conventional and psychological. Through the transformative learning, the individual (learner) goes under a change in perspective, the way he conceptualizes the world, himself and others around him.

Various authors have identified three factors that determine if a student will turn out be a transformative learner:

- Characteristics of the instructor and the student
- Learning environment
- Instructional activities
(Jones 2008) Developing students are not simply ...

Following the American Psychology Association’s Guidelines

I first began to notice that the concept of learning is not an arbitrary thing to most people as I observed the education system. We begin school, we are taught, we learn, we graduate, and then that is the end. We are expected to find jobs and begin contributing to society; the learning has ended. This was a troubling concept. Why should we stop learning just because we have left school? In addition, why should school be the only place that we are learning? Are not there other ways to learn? We can learn through observing, philosophizing, and thinking for ...

Introduction

Theories are abstractions from the real world to give explanation to phenomenon that are affecting variables under consideration. Several theories have been propounded to give explanation to how and why human beings behave in a certain manner. Among these theories is the Elton Mayo’s Haworth experimental student to show what motivate workers to put the extra performance during their productivity hours. Other motivational theories propounded by human behavioral school of thought include Abraham Maslow hierarchy of need theory, Federick Herzberg Two factor theory, Douglas MC Gregory’s X and Y theories, Bandura’s cognitive theory and the social learning ...

INTERDICTION

The study of Arts Education has been looked down upon for the past few decades in Saudi Arabia. More emphasis have been directed towards sciences such as engineering, medicine and mathematical courses. This is a problem that is prevalent in this kingdom to the point of pushing the ministry of higher education to consider reviewing the curriculum by developing an Art Education curriculum. This problem adopts a Discipline-based Art Education as the backbone of this project. The ministry of higher education is responsible for investigating, exploring and highlighting the merits associated with this program on developing Art Education in our institutions ...

Lev Vygotsky believed that the way of life as a child is raised by influences in the operations of the child development. Every child learns actively and through hands – on experiences. A child development is a social constructivism and the development is determined by culture. Children are active learners and their knowledge is constructed socially. Its cultural values and customs dictate the importance of learning; children learn from expert members of the society who are responsible of higher order functions such as parents, peers, caregivers, and the culture at large and the zone of proximal development in learning occurs.

Introduction

Neural Network, or most commonly known as “Artificial Neural Network” is an information processing pattern which are comprised of multiple processors and influenced by how the nervous system processes information. The processors or units, as many researchers would call them, are linked by communication channels and carry numeric data that are acquired by our brain and senses in many different ways. The units function only with the local data acquired and with the information that they have from the connection. It is said that a Neural Network (ANN) learns via examples, just like humans and is capable of handling processes ...

Introduction

This term paper proves that environmental transformation through design not only adds to its aesthetic value, but also influences individual well-being and growth. The paper was inspired by our summer project, which involved the repainting and redesigning a local preschool center using a budget of USD 1000. The suitability of this location was because of its significant impact on a wide number of individuals, like parents, teachers, as well as preschool children. It is worth noting that, old, problematic and insufficiently designed environments tend to drain the energy that could have been used on productivity, growth and development. Contrarily, proper lighting, space, ...

Right brain vs. left brain

The theory of the function and structure of the brain implies that the brain consists of two sides that are different and they control the brain. The longitudinal fissure is what that splits a human brain into distinct cerebral hemispheres that is the right and the left side. These two hemispheres show a not complete but a strong bilateral symmetry in the ways they both function and how they are structurally made.
Generalizations that are widely being made in the field of popular psychology suggests that these sides have characteristics that are labeled to them. Normal myth is that the left side ...

Adult Hippocampal neurogenesis has often been associated with hippocampus-dependent learning memory. The whole process of neuron development is highly and differently susceptible to various factors and conditions that affect its survival, as well as functionality. Various prior researches have indicated that spatial training occurring 6-10 days after an injection of bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU), which is a DNA synthesis marker, increased the cell’s survival rate in male rats. However, sex differences has been reported in spatial cognition and hippocampal neurogenesis, hence developing difficulties in understanding whether spatial training would affect males and females hippocampal neurogenesis similarly.
Therefore, the article by ...

The role of education is considered vital for everyone in today’s advancing world. Without having quality education and appropriate learning, success and growth cannot be guaranteed. Schools and educational institutes are now being equipped with modern technological tools of teaching and learning, and now it is considered necessary for a child to be well aware of these from early childhood. As it is rightly said that home is the very first educational institute for a child, the importance of parent’s role in developing their child’s learning skills cannot be denied in any case.

There are many professionals in both the fields of sociology and the field of education. There are almost as many opinions on the topics that are studied as there are professions. Some of the topics that are frequently studied are the ways in which people learn, the ways in which they interact, and the ways in which the make choices in the early years and how these choices influence them throughout their lives. Fortunately, much of the research that has been done in these areas has come to a consensuses and the professionals and learning to collaborate better with each ...

Starting early in life, the environment plays a siginifcant role in the learning, growth and development of a child. Scientific evidences show that people are predisposed to learn new things from their surroundings. When people are given the right opportunity and a conducive learning enviroment, they can readily assimilate new things and accommodate old experiences to their mental schema. Most research studies in various disciplines revealed that the learning environment have a direct impact on how people will learn, adopt and create new ideas for their own advantages and that of society (Davidson, 2012; Hannesdóttír, 2012).

Comparison and Contrast: Social Control and Social Learning Theories

Introduction
People often think that what motivates criminals to commit crimes is brought about by a need to steal money from others, a mental or drug problem that leads to perpetration of rape or heinous crimes, or even masked fear and anger. Some commit crimes due to repeated exposure to situations that support a negative behavior. Some do it due to inferiority complex in childhood, thus, they strive for superiority in adulthood. There are various other reasons for committing crimes and these can be explained by criminological theories. For the purpose of the presentation, the criminological theories that will be the ...

In the contemporary learning environment, the use of computers is a common feature. E-learning entails the use of computer and associated applications and pieces of technology to obtain the same utility as that obtained in the physical classrooms of the school environment. The ‘e’ in the term has been interpreted and understood differently by different people. While others say that it stands for Electronic, many others have argued that it means Enhanced. Whatever the case, just like the “E” in e-commerce, e-marketing and e-mail, the “e” in e-learning means establishing a learning environment online. Learning through the internet is becoming widely ...

My experience in learning the American history was fun and my passion ever since I joined high school. My experience in history made me to love the subject especially since it gave me a chance to know where I came from giving a hint of what to expect in future. It also gave me an inspiration to work towards experiments and surveys to extract the truth and explain the occurrence of some phenomena that are common in the American soil.
In my personal capacity, I can claim that my history teacher was one of the best trained instructors I have ...

SELF EVALUATION
A good teacher is the one who conducts self evaluation on themselves. When doing this, they should consider all the major components of the lesson. Obviously, this should come at the end of the lesson. At this stage, it is only reflection that is done. The major questions asked, therefore, include the following:
i) Did I teach well?
ii) Did I not teach well?
iii) If I did not teach well, what was the problem?
iv) If I am to re-teach this lesson, will I do the way I did?
Actually, it ...

The California’s system of accountability requires the use of test scores to evaluate students. Most of the students do not gain entry to universities and colleges because of attaining low grades. However, the main reason which makes them not to perform better is due to lack of necessary resources and opportunity that will enable them to learn the things that are tested. Hypocritically, accountability ought to be a system where both students and teachers are involved in deciding on the best method of scoring good grades. However, this does not take place in California. What the students need is ...

Here it is already, the end of a semester that went by faster than usual this year, I think because I found out how much I enjoy writing. I’ve always been a scribbler. Ever since I was a little kid, just ask my Mom, wait, I don’t really want you to ask my mom. I’m just saying that I started writing practically when I was knee high to a grasshopper – and my mother has saved every scrap and journal. Well, except for the ones she doesn’t know about.

The great thing about this semester is that I learned ...

Creating a Plan for a Culturally Diverse Classroom

Over the last few decades, the demographics of the United States of America have changed drastically. America has been become a multicultural society. The change of the demographics calls for professionals and paraprofessionals in the education system to promote cultural diversity in the education system in order to accommodate all the ethnic groups. To create an environment that recognizes and appreciates all students from the diverse ethnic backgrounds is a continous process, which takes time and effort (Miller, 2009). This paper focuses on how learning institutions and teachers can create a cultural diversity in class by creating a learning atmosphere of tolerance acceptance ...

Introduction

Karate is generally a martial art that was started in Japan at a place called Okinawa. This place was previously called Ryukyu Islands. Some of the fighting skills taught in karate include elbow strikes, punching, knee strikes, and punching. Though karate is concerned with fighting methods, I would wish to point out that it is not a violent sport. Last summer I got a chance to join a karate group at a local gym and one thing that I came to learn is that this sport not only involves learning the art of fighting but also trains people to be disciplined. Indeed discipline is ...

The term quality education has been currently been emphasized. This emphasis helps in improving the quality of education at all levels. It will be agreed that up to now most of the people in all walks of life view education as a perfect tool that enhances acquisition of knowledge. This is not different among the university students. Universities, being the highest institutions of learning, require the highest form of independence in thoughts and action. This autonomy is what is required to propel the current society into the future.
Education, which is as old as humanity, endeavors to bring some ...

Critical Analysis of the Three Main Theories of Learning and Their Relevance to Adults in Higher Education

Over the years of teaching practice, scholars and researchers from different areas of pedagogy, psychology, and philosophy have revealed the most effective theories and methods of teaching. Behaviorist, cognitive, and constructivist theories are considered to be the most efficient and productive learning approaches. The use of these theories in education helps teaching experience to gain the important ideas that fully meet the objectives of education of an active and mature personality. Hence, the selection of the optimal theory, or their mixing, aims at improving the learning process, making it more effective. This efficiency is due to the received result, ...

Philosophy

The theory of situated cognition postulates that human thoughts are related to the environment in which we are situated. That what a human perceives, and how we conceive the activities we are involved in develops together with what we do physically.
Situated cognition suggests that the learning process of an individual is tied to the authentic activity, culture and context of an individual. I.e., it is difficult for a person to learn from unnatural activities for instance learning a foreign language by immersion is easier than having to learn a new language through secondary media such as textbooks and vocabulary appendices.

It is indeed right to appreciate the fact that change is inevitable. In every aspect of our living, it is very difficult for many factors to remain the same because humans are dynamic beings. A paradigm shift is a significant change that is seen on a particular aspect and usually takes a period for the change to be effected. There are many factors in the world we live in today that have experienced significant degrees of change; they include human interaction, science, the family setting, governance, education and many others. In this case, the primary concern will be drawn ...

Introduction

The process of learning in animals and humans come through a series of situations that come together to motivate, and ignite the brains and enable them to repeat specific actions in the face of certain circumstances. The basic logic presented by psychologists and biologists is that there is intrinsic motivation based on the brain which controls the nerves and models of an animal or human being. This implies that an external variable triggers an extrinsic motivation that gets the organism to ignite the internal or intrinsic motivation in order to undertake certain actions and internalize it in order to ...

Psychology: Baddeley’s Working Memory

Introduction – Baddeley’s Working Memory
Short term memory is an important aspect in human lives as it influences behavior and outcomes in daily lives in more ways than one – of which the role played in development of working memory is an important factor. Even though short term memory is considered to have significant differences from working memory, they are considered to be related by eminent psychologists. The most common factor behind this perspective is that both short term memory and working memory are involved in the storage of information temporarily in an individual. Working memory can be best described ...

Psychology: Behaviourism and Free Will

I. Introduction: Behaviorism and Free Will
Behaviorism (or learning theory) focuses primarily on overt or observable and quantifiable behaviors and excludes subjective phenomenon such as motives, feelings, and so on. It explains the processes, principles and laws by which learning occurs. Many schools of thought under behaviorism include Pavlovian, also known as classical or respondent, conditioning.
Under the basic tenet of classical conditioning, individuals learn by means of associating neutral stimulus with a meaningful response. Another behaviorism is Skinnerian, a.k.a. operant or instrumental, conditioning. Operant conditioning is the process whereby learning takes place when an action is done ...

Personal Classroom Management Plan

Classroom management is not only concerned with classroom teaching but it encompasses the totality of how a teacher prepares for her class, how she implements her curriculum and how she maintains the order in the classroom as well as keep her students’ learning and behavior in check.

It is possible for individuals to use the gadgets to access the social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram for communication purposes. Clearly, social media has both positive and negative effects towards student’s interactions and work ethics in institutions of learning. An article by Emma Reves (2015) depicted that one in four people consumes more time in ...

Educational Affiliation

Reading is essential in the acquisition of knowledge. Books are the source of power and many great leaders including Alexander the Great had been fond of reading during his lifetime. Dr. Seuss, a famous writer of children’s story books, once said in one of his books published in 1978 entitled, I Can Read with My Eyes Shut that:
“The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more you learn, the more places you will go” (as cited from Dickinson et al. 2012).
Going back to its neurological background, Love and Webb (1986) claimed ...

The history of human evolution has always been a heated topic for debate; many theories abound as to what factors led to the evolution of apes into man, using the concepts of trait adaptation, among others, to help explain why we became what we became. There are those who believe that the major contributing factor was the development of language, or the forming of groups with hierarchical structures. Others believe that the development of monogamy as a social concept is the most important factor leaving to the evolution of humanity. However, it is my concerted belief that the most important contributing ...

And IDEA provides for the special needs of children with disabilities. NCLB also includes children with disabilities. As far as school education is concerned these laws take care of all students in the United States. But are these laws alone enough ...

School and Classroom Processes:

Whilst researching Attention Hyperactive Deficit Disorder (ADHD), if one thing is immediately clear, it is that the ADHD child needs allowances to be made for their behaviour whilst in the classroom. ADHD is a diagnosis of the American Psychiatric Association and lists symptoms as including inattentiveness, impulsiveness and hyperactivity that are extreme enough to interfere with an individual’s day to day existence. (Lewis & Norwich, p125, 2005) The disorder is known to affect approximately 18,168 of the Hong Kong population, most of whom are male children. (Wrong Diagnosis, 2011) ADHD comes under the heading of ‘Emotional Behavioural Difficulties’ ( ...

Cognitive-behavior theory deals with micro practice or social work. Micro practice is one of the most common kinds of social work in which people interact with individuals or families to solve their problems. Cognitive structures are designed to work on the reaction and work of individuals in their personal lives as everyone has a unique cognitive structure that is based on individual experiences of life and biological predispositions. The hyphenated term “cognitive-behavioral” shows the significance of both cognitive aspects as well as behavioral approaches to understand and help human beings. Both of them ...

Communicating or communication is basically the act of sharing, expressing, or conveying information to another person or a group of people. One generally accepted meaning of communication explains that it is “an act by which one person gives to or receives from another person information about that person’s needs, desires, perceptions, knowledge, or affective states which may be intentional, unintentional, may involve unconventional and conventional signals as in the form of different body languages being used across various cultures, linguistic and nonlinguistic forms, and ...

Abstract

Breakfast is often recommended as an integral part of a healthy diet. In most cases, breakfast healthiness accrues from micronutrient intakes. Because of breakfast supremacy in the regular lives, most researches have been conducted to explore the relevance of breakfast and cognitive ability on young children. In this research proposal, I document a planned proposal that seeks to explore the connection between breakfast and children’s cognitive ability. I intend to make use of already performed experiments to make case of the relevant of a good breakfast for steadfast academic performance.
