Teachers and other school personnel studied research and theoretical literature related to learning and punishment, and explored the implications of the findings for educational practice. The initial series of lectures emphasized the psychology of learning and the role of punishment. Specific applications of this knowledge to educational problems…

As we experiment with uses of technology, we must resist a simplistic view of the venture. Technologies are more than means to ends. They change our goals, for they change our very natures as organisms. It is believed that educators cannot refrain from extensive technological innovation. In doing so, however, they must sensitize themselves to the…

The processes of motivation, teaching, and learning are interrelated. Misguided motivation and resultant disinterest in learning in underachieving students may be due to unhealthy self-concepts: if students believe that they can't learn, they usually don't learn. Since self-concept is a result of a student's experiences, a good self-concept can be…

While all six misarticulating children evidenced generalization, individual differences in learning patterns did emerge. These patterns were explained in terms of three factors: information about the children's unique knowledge about the phonologic system, the linguistic relationships among sounds, and the interaction of these factors with the…

This paper describes issues related to interactivity and access to underlying models and representations in system dynamics based learning environments. There is some evidence to suggest that system dynamics can be used effectively to promote understanding in complex domains (P. Davidsen, 1994, 1996; Sterman, 1988, 1997). However, there is…

This article compares different types of measurements, internal and external, of individual learning in the business game situation. The conclusions indicate an advantage for the Weighted Quadratic rule, which constitutes an internal method, allowing for immediate feedback of that information that controls learning. (JA)

Both enforced attention and stimulus phasing found to improve task performance. (MH)

In many cases the complete isolation of management education from its practical application means that the manager does not reap the full benefit of the training he receives. In this article Dr. Revans shows how the integration of management theory and practice is achieved by the Inter University Programme for Advanced Management. (Author)
