4th Week: Learning through Experience

Our topic was also what i reported on this week, Its all about Meaningful Learning Theory and Condition of Learning. Its says that meaningful learning is a new information that can relate on what learner already know, for me it is true because it easily for me to understand information specially if the new information is recognizable. You can relate on it and also you are interested of it and understandable that is why meaningful itself. Every person can relate it on a situation; we can also apply it everyday, because sometimes our idea we get on what we experience in the past so you can evolve it in a new information that someday we can use it in our everyday activity.

Also we tackled about Condition of Learning it involves motivations, retention and transfer of learning. Why we are doing something? it is because we are motivated, We are motivated because of what we need in our life to get our goals. Sometimes we are doing things that are far away from our desired goals, it is because of our family, friends and the other who is around us pushing us to do something but still that is also motivating. Do you still remember the lesson in high school? Yes? or No? Humbly speaking yes, some of them hahaha. Sometimes when my teacher ask me what our lessons that have discuss in high school then my mind keep on loading then i answer my teacher some of them. Because honestly some of the lesson in the those pass years is either the new information is much better to retain rather than old, also some of them I decided to forget them which is not right. Those things causes forgetting either you decided to forget it, or because of mix up of new information to the old, or you are failed to relate the old information to the new ideas. It is very important to remember everything you know, because someday you will need it.

Learning can be also relate in a situation, it is like transferring information that you have learn into the action or somehow experiencing it. Do you agree that you will learn the most if you have experience it? Yes that is definitely true, for me it is not just by reading, writing it all about putting it into practice and that is learning. You apply it in the way that makes you to retain that knowledge that someday you will need it.
