Hi everybody,

can you help me to complete the following? I need to compare between

Piaget, Sternberg, and Gardner

how each one of them saw learner and learning in one sentence ?

for example , Skinner saw the learner as a sort of �black box�, whose inner workings were not vital.

he also saw learning as a type of conditioned reflex by giving the proper stimulus, and eliciting the response.

As for Piaget saw learner as .................... .

He also saw learning as..............................................

as for Sternberg saw learner as ............................ .

He also saw learning as.............................................

as for Gardner saw learner as ..........................................

He also saw learning as .....................................................

Can help you out a bit with Gardner (guess you �ve made a misprint in the name and we �re talking about Howard Gardner ;-)

as for Gardner saw learner as having "multiple intelligences" i.e. different ways of processing information, independent of each other ( linguistic, mathematical, spatial, musical, kineastethic, naturalistic, interpersonal, intrapersonal)

He also saw learning as a process where we differ in strengths of these intelligences thus new input should be presented in a variety of ways to reach diverse audiences.

and perhaps with Piaget:

As for Piager saw learner as moving from few basic reflexes to highly complex mental activities through a series of 4 stages.

He also saw learning as a process of building cognitive structures. If an experience is a repeated one or fits easily, it �s built into a child �s cognitive structure contributing to his/her "mental equilibrium". If the experience is different, the child loses quilibrium and has to modify his/her cognitive structures.

Sorry, I �m not familiar with the third person.

best of luck,

joanna
