                2. What he believed (myenglishpages 2011)
                  1. Learning is an active process
                    1. Learners make appropriate decisions and test the effectiveness of different outcomes
                      1. be aware of children's learning styles and learning modes (Symbolic,Iconic and Enactive) which will help you plan and prepare appropriate resources and activities that meet the needs of children
                      2. Learners use prior experiences to fit new information into existing structures
                        1. Spiral curriculum, introduction of levels: developing on skills that already exsist
                        2. Building on and revisiting ideas until learners grasp the formal concept
                          1. Letters and sounds Intervention: : fisher phase 3 Daily Rountines within the classroom (Timetable)
                          2. Although extrinsic motivation may work short term, intrinsic motivation has more value

                              1. ''experience success and failure not as reward and punishment, but information''(Bruner 1961 ,pg 26)
                            2. 'the purpose of education is not to impart knowledge but to facilitate a child's thinking and problem solving skills'(simply psychology, 2012)
                            3. 3 modes of Representation
                              1. Enactive (0-1years) the stage which refers to learning through your actions. e.g a baby remembering the movement of a rattle
                                1. Iconic (1-6 years) this stage refers to learners using pictures and models for their learning
