IT WORKS IN PRACTICE BUT WILL IT WORK IN THEORY? THE THEORETICAL UNDERPINNINGS OF PEDAGOGY

Abstract

The chapter begins with a justification of learning theory and the ways that theory can be useful to the practitioner. It then presents two major philosophical approaches – one based on ideas and the other based on experience- an enduring dichotomy in Western thought. We then discuss the three most influential theories in the Western world – Behaviourism, Cognitivism and Constructivism
