What
have my learners reaction taught me about learning and teaching? Based on my
teaching, learning and interactions with my learners and doing the readings
from this activity. I have learnt that we can acquire
new behaviours from simply observing and imitating others. This is referred to
as modelling. This theory was originally referred to as social learning theory,
but increasingly cognitive processes to explain learning have been included in
the theory; hence the name social cognitive theory. As an Educator we
have a strong influence on our learners they mimic us and it is important to
use this position to be good role models for them, even more so in our teaching
and learning practices.
