Learning theory itself is prime for
development.
e-Learning takes the concept of “community of
learners”.
“Communal constructivism”-
individuals not only learn socially but
contribute to other learners.
The theoretical underpinning of ϵ-Learning
![Page 3: E learning theory](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022060120/5592a5201a28ab63798b4674/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
e-Learning has limitations:
1. The fixed times 2. Locations for
learning
However, e-Learning is simply an add-on in the technology itself
![Page 4: E learning theory](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022060120/5592a5201a28ab63798b4674/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The concepts of e-Learning have emerged
from:
1. A number of different traditions and fields
2. Education3. Psychology4. Computer science5. Sociology

Three main theoretical frameworks underpinning
educational and e-Learning theory:
Behaviourism

The best known proponents of the
approach:

COGNITIVISM
![Page 9: E learning theory](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022060120/5592a5201a28ab63798b4674/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The most prominent theorists of Cognitivist
approaches:

Sensory-motor skills: 0-2 years; reaching, touching and so on
Pre-operational: 2-7 years; linguistic development,
intuitive understanding of some simple processes
Concrete operations: 7-11 years; organized thinking,
problem solving with “real” contexts
Formal operations: 11-15 years; abstract conceptualization and formal
logic

The learner`s steps: implying that some learning
capabilities are dependent on the consolidation of others
David Wood introduces the concept of “scaffolding”
Scaffolding is considered as part of the tutor`s role

Socio-Constructivism Lev Vygotsky (1896-1934)
Communal Constructivism Holmes (2001)

Socio—Constructivism Lev Vygotsky (1896-1934)
![Page 16: E learning theory](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022060120/5592a5201a28ab63798b4674/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
This theory was evolved from Cognitive Constructivist Theory

Vygotsky's theory differs from Piaget’s theory in a number of important ways:
http://www.simplypsychology.org/vygotsky.html
1. Vygotsky places more emphasis on culture.
2. Vygotsky places considerably more emphasis on social factors.
3. Vygotsky places more (and different) emphasis on the role of language in cognitive development

Communal Constructivism Holmes (2001)
• Communal Constructivism is an approach to learning in which students construct their own knowledge as a result of their experiences and interactions with others and are afforded the opportunity to contribute this knowledge to a communal knowledge base for the benefit of existing and new learners (Holmes, 2001)
![Page 21: E learning theory](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022060120/5592a5201a28ab63798b4674/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
‘a river and a pipe’
![Page 22: E learning theory](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022060120/5592a5201a28ab63798b4674/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Two analogies, of water flowing in a river and in a pipe, illustrate the basic tenet of communal constructivism.

The concept of PhD study
The concept of PhD study is that of the students making a contribution to the field they are studying.
Doctoral students attempt to expand knowledge in a discipline and are encouraged to publish their results so that their own work is recorded and helps develop the field of knowledge.
the doctoral study is arguably one of the best learning experiences available, especially if it is undertaken in a team context such as a science research group

They represent a significant move forward for e-Learning, based on communities of users/learners in a communal constructivist context.

SEEDS OF CHANGE!
To learn with and from othersPeer tutoring and project-based learning in a group
Conventional educational process will become increasingly vulnerable to change in the face of communal constructivist approaches stimulated by e-learning environments.
