In your initial post, consider the following prompts about cognitivism, and discuss each, basing your posture on this week’s readings, your past experiences, and your past knowledge:
Discuss the significance of the cognitive revolution.
Explain information processing.
Analyze the behaviorist versus cognitivist definition of learning: a change in observational behavior or a change in one’s schemata.
Which theory do you believe is more accurate? Why? (Support with citations.)
Discuss if your personal schemata has changed throughout your life. (This could be about learning, but also about other domains such as love, honesty, hard work, loyalty, etc.)
Also in your discussion, respond to the following questions specifically associated to After Watching This, Your Brain Will not be the Same (Links to an external site.):
How do Dr. Boyd’s suggestions support (or oppose) what you believe to be true about learning?
Boyd suggests three changes occur in our brains and help support learning: chemical, structural, and functional; how do these affect persons who suffer from different types of brain damage (e.g., stroke)?
If the primary driver of change in your brain is your behavior, what is Dr. Boyd’s primary suggestion for increasing our success in learning?
Your initial post should be between 350 and 400 words.
