theory. Bla bla bla

Throughout the years Jerome Brunner has written 44 books, one of her earlier book
called toward a theory of instruction in his book Brunner said We teach a subject
not to produce little living librarians on that subject, but rather to get a student to
think for himself, to consider matters to take part in the process of knowledgegetting. Knowing is a process, not a product.
The culture of education was a landmark text, that had direct influence on US policy
Brunner philosophy on spiral learning curriculum suggest that learners returned to
basic idea on a frequent basis. As new subjects in concept are gradually increase
with difficulty over time. The big idea behind JB is that students need to understand
the meaning into learn. As as simply memorizing. Hysteria on spiral learning
revolves around understanding human cognition in a step by step learning process.
Which is then rely on interaction experience to form intuition and knowledge.
Basically, what one learned is through repeated experience. Discovery learning is
important to this theory. Because it allows the student to build on their own current
knowledge. There are 3 stages of representation in Brunners theory. Enactive,
Iconic, and Symbolic. Classroom management viewed from the perspective of
discovery learning were constructivism theory. Stated that is an active process, so
that the learner built upon the knowledge of theory they have. It may appear a little
chaotic at first. However, students are inquiring and discovering, interactive in their
learning. As Brunner once stated, understanding invites discovering. the
instructional approach to this theory to have teacher encourage the students and
learner to allow their discoveries of their main objectives. Communication between
teacher and students is the key concept. Additional instructional approaches for the
teacher are they help the learner to focus on the goals and tasks, show relevancy.
Additionally, emphasize learning motivated by interest, students are more excited
to learn, when they are interesting to the subject. Brunners spiral learning theory
can be applied to many different curriculums. Students build and construct a new
knowledge in control their own process of learning or teachers give input,
instruction to the appropriate learning environment to the learner. Since Brunners
theory is based on continuous knowledge built up over time. The instructional
problem that is not addressed is what happens when the learning takes place over a
short period of times.
