Within Kolb's Learning Cycle. 4 stages of learning which follow on from each other, Honey and Mumford have built learning styles around this sequence, identifying individual preferences for each stage.
Slide 6; How will I do this? - Link to Activity 7
Socio-cognitive learning perspective, Vygotsky's(1978) Zone of Proximal Development, embedded in this perspective is the idea that understanding results from personal interactions in social contexts. Thus, students are viewed as participants in the construction of meaning through their interactions with others (Black, 2005). To promote a higher level of thinking (critical), students will provide feedback to each other, and thus, co-construct knowledge and understanding(Roehler & Cantion,1997), which is the Active experimentation part of Kolb's Learning Cycle.
This will sit within the framework of Otago Polytechnic's Strategic Plan and the process for inspiring capability in our students.
