Hello everyone!!!

Today I want to share what I have learned in the last lesson it about learning theories in curriculum. Why do we need to know about learning theories in curriculum? Learning theories in curriculum divide in three group such as behaviourist, cognitive and humanistic.

Learning theories are important to education because it is used to guide their children based on the different learning styles that exist. It also help teacher to guide of the different methods used to enhance learning in the classroom. We need to know about learning theories because we can be more effective as educators. It can help children to learn and get experience when they do activity related behaviourist, cognitive and humanistic. For example, children build a block with their friends. First, child show their action when start to play a block. After that, they think how to build the block and if they unsuccessful to build the block, they can try again until their successful. From the activity, children can learn and know how to complete the building. At the same time children have effort to do the any activity given by their teacher. Children will know they must complete their work and also have high internal strength.

Besides that, teacher should know learning theories because help them to use the curriculum in their own kindergarten. This is because each kindergarten or preschool have different curriculum whether government or private kindergarten. From the curriculum, we can produce children that they have talent and a lot of skills such as know how to play music instrument, good in communication and have creative art skills. Therefore, from the learning theories can help children to increase their imagination and they can use the experience in their future.
