The document discusses various definitions and theories of learning from different scholars over time. It defines learning as a relatively permanent change in behavior or knowledge that results from experience. It outlines several learning theories including behaviorism, which focuses on observable behaviors and conditioning; cognitivism, which views learning as the processing of information; social learning theory, which emphasizes learning through observation; and constructivism, which sees learning as an active process of constructing knowledge.
This document provides an overview of three major learning theories: behaviorism, cognitivism, and constructivism. It defines each theory and describes their key aspects. Behaviorism focuses on observable behaviors and conditioning, cognitivism emphasizes mental processes and knowledge representation, and constructivism views learning as an active process of constructing knowledge based on experiences. The document also discusses how each theory can be applied in classroom instruction and their critiques. It concludes by relating each theory to different types of educational technology supports.

Critiques note limitations of each theory in fully explaining the learning process.
The document discusses several theories of learning:
- Behaviorism views learning as observable behaviors and focuses on conditioning through rewards and punishments.
- Cognitivism sees learning as the process of connecting symbols cognitively and studies mental processes. Approaches include discovery learning and meaningful verbal learning.
- Social constructivism believes knowledge is actively constructed through social and contextualized processes. Learning is an inherently social activity.
The document discusses the evolution of how psychology has been defined. It started as the study of the soul, but that was rejected because the soul cannot be studied. It was then defined as the study of the mind, but that definition was confusing. It was also defined as the study of consciousness, but that did not account for unconscious behaviors. Psychology is now defined as the scientific study of observable behavior, which includes all conscious, subconscious, and unconscious mental activities and processes of organisms.

Blind Spots in AI and Formulation Science Knowledge Pyramid (Updated Perspect...Ajaz Hussain
油
This presentation delves into the systemic blind spots within pharmaceutical science and regulatory systems, emphasizing the significance of "inactive ingredients" and their influence on therapeutic equivalence. These blind spots, indicative of normalized systemic failures, go beyond mere chance occurrences and are ingrained deeply enough to compromise decision-making processes and erode trust.
Historical instances like the 1938 FD&C Act and the Generic Drug Scandals underscore how crisis-triggered reforms often fail to address the fundamental issues, perpetuating inefficiencies and hazards.
The narrative advocates a shift from reactive crisis management to proactive, adaptable systems prioritizing continuous enhancement. Key hurdles involve challenging outdated assumptions regarding bioavailability, inadequately funded research ventures, and the impact of vague language in regulatory frameworks.
The rise of large language models (LLMs) presents promising solutions, albeit with accompanying risks necessitating thorough validation and seamless integration.
Tackling these blind spots demands a holistic approach, embracing adaptive learning and a steadfast commitment to self-improvement. By nurturing curiosity, refining regulatory terminology, and judiciously harnessing new technologies, the pharmaceutical sector can progress towards better public health service delivery and ensure the safety, efficacy, and real-world impact of drug products.

2. Definition: Learning is
A change in behavior as a result of experience or practice.
The acquisition of knowledge.
Knowledge gained through study.
To gain knowledge of, or skill in, something through study,
teaching, instruction or experience.
The process of gaining knowledge.
A process by which behavior is changed, shaped or
controlled.
The individual process of constructing understanding based
on experience from a wide range of sources.
3. Some First Principles
Learning is something all humans do
Fetuses learn
Infants learn
Children learn
Adults learn
Learning is not uniquely human all living things
learn
Learning evolved as an adaptation for promoting
survival
6. Process of Learning
Learning involves the individual
Brain
Body
Learning involves others
Pairs
Groups
Organizations
Communities
Society
Learning takes place somewhere
In physical environment
With things and tools
Learning occurs over time
7. Products of Learning
Learning is about ideas and concepts
Learning is about behaviors and skills
Learning is about attitudes and values
9. Five Principles of Learning
Participation: involve trainees, learn by doing
Repetition: repeat ideas & concepts to help
people learn
Relevance: learn better when material is
meaningful and related
Transference: to real world using simulations
Feedback: ask for it and adjust training
methods to audience.
10. Domains Of Learning
Benjamin Bloom has suggested three domains of
learning:
Cognitive To recall, calculate, discuss, analyze,
problem solve, etc.
Psychomotor To dance, swim, ski, dive, drive a
car, ride a bike, etc.
Affective To like something or someone, love,
appreciate, fear, hate, worship, etc.
11. Basic Learning Principles
Learning depends upon three conditions:
The readiness to learn
The ability to learn
The learning environment
12. Definition: Theories are
What is a theory?
A theory provides a general explanation for observations made
over time.
A theory explains and predicts behavior.
A theory can never be established beyond all doubt.
A theory may be modified.
Theories seldom have to be thrown out completely if
thoroughly tested but sometimes a theory may be widely
accepted for a long time and later disproved.
13. Broad domains of theories
