How do you know when to apply which theory? It is important tot note that learning theories describe how people learn--not application. We all have a theory on how people learn and that drives us to do what we do.
In the paper decide what are those fundamental principles that you believe about learning, or how people learn.
Perhaps use these in the paper:
Which factors influence learning?
What is the role of memory?
How does transfer occur?
What types of learning are best explained by this position?
What basic assumptions/principles of this theory are relevant to instructional design?
How should instruction be structured?
My daughter one day vacuumed the family room and cleaned the kitchen. After she was done she asked, "So, do I get a treat?" Behaviorism describes why Ashlyn did what she did.
Learning theories are descriptive and instructional theories are prescriptive.
Before class on Monday: What factors influence learning? (there's a paper due in a week and a half on this)
