LEARNING CENTERS

DEFINITION• A Learning Center is a
self-contained environment designed to promote individual or small group learning around a specific task.

How do Learning Centers differ from schools?
• They offer more casual environments and individualized instruction
• they are often created with a few core services in mind
• their purpose largely is to supplement existing institutions rather than to compete with them

ADVANTAGES• Individualized Instruction• Active Learning• Flexible
–Self-paced –Medium of Instruction

DISADVANTAGES• Effectiveness
• Cost
PROGAMMED INSTRUCTIONAdd your subtitle or – refers to learning done by individual using printed materials or a computer

ADVANTAGES
● Self-pacing
● Practice and Feedback
● Reliable
● Effective
LIMITATIONS
● Program design
● Tedious
● Lack of social Interaction

PROGRAMMED TUTORING- One –on-one method of instruction in which
the tutor’s responses are programmed in
advance in the form of carefully structured
printed instructions

ADVANTAGES
● Practice and Feedback
● Reliable
● Effective
● Self-pacing
Free powerpoint template: www.brainybetty.com13
LIMITATIONS
● Labor intensive
● Developmental Cost

DEFINITION:• also known as “direct instruction”• its first and foremost advocates
was B. F. Skinner, Edgar Pierce Professor of Psychology, who has been using its techniques in Natural Sciences 114 since 1957

• principles of programmed instruction in a large-group setting
• groups of 5 to 10 students.
• led through a lesson by a teacher, paraprofessional or student peer

Critical Features of these lesson include:
unison responding
rapid pacing
reinforcement or correction

Personalized System of Instruction (PSI)
Also known as the “Keller
Plan”
First described by Fred Keller in Good Bye Teacher - Journal of
Applied Behavior Analysis (1968)

Fred Simmons Keller

Was a pioneer in experimental psychology.
He taught at Columbia University for 26 years
He died at home, age 97, on February 2, 1996

-- composed of small self-paced modularized units of instructions where the study guides direct learners-- study guides direct learners through the
modules
-- Modules
-- Unit tests - scoring at least a 90%

PSI steps:
• as students complete a unit, they are tested
• immediate feedback is provided by proctor with an opportunity to review and re-test
• student move on to new units after they master previous, prerequisite units, self-pacing through course

• In PSI units, “live” proctors grade student tests and provide immediate feedback on their performance. This one-to-one support is the key component that makes the model “personalized.”

LIMITATIONS
Development cost Behaviorist commitment Self-discipline

PSI Outcomes:
tutored students learn “more” than lectured students
favour individual pacing and appreciate individual attention from proctors
attention for gifted/special education most common, traditionally viewed as too expensive for average classes
