Characteristics of Burner’s Theory of Cognitive Development
- The idea of “readiness for learning” was created by Bruner’s theory of cognitive development.
- According to Bruner’s idea, in order to foster in pupils a desire to learn, the educational process must take into account the learner’s experiences.
- According to this approach, learning should be simple, hence organised instruction is essential to assisting pupils in understanding concepts quickly.
- The focus of Bruner’s theory of intellectual growth is learning via discovery.
- According to Bruner’s view, incentives and penalties should be used in moderation.
- Bruner’s theory of intellectual growth emphasises efficient sequencing as well.
- According to Bruner’s philosophy, the main objective of education should be intellectual growth rather than rote memorization.
