Teaching Dermatology Using a Cognitive Learning Theory Approach: An Educational Technique

Context Athletic trainers must develop the knowledge and skills to recognize signs and symptoms of dermatologic conditions in the physically active population. Objective To present an overview of an educational technique aimed at promoting the development of skills related to dermatological care that meets clinical practice needs and accreditation requirements for athletic training programs at all levels. Background Curricular content standards in athletic training education require learners to obtain the skills necessary to perform an evaluation, formulate a diagnosis, and establish a plan of care relevant to the integumentary system, including dermatological conditions. Cognitive Learning Theory uses specific sequencing of content and learning sessions to promote student engagement in the learning process. Description Within an evaluation course for nonorthopaedic conditions, a 3–class session learning module was developed to target instruction, application, and assessment of dermatological conditions. This article describes the development, overview of content, delivery methods, outcomes to date, and connection to the instructional standards in athletic training. Clinical Advantage(s) Integrating evaluation of dermatological conditions into athletic training curricula enhances clinical decision-making skills and direct application of these skills to clinical practice. Conclusion(s) Athletic trainers should be able to effectively identify, manage, and potentially refer patients with dermatological conditions. Educating future athletic trainers to be able to prevent the spread of infection, decrease disease transmission, and enhance their ability to recognize and manage dermatological conditions is vital to their development toward independent clinical practice.

Highly Intensive Teaching in Tertiary Education

This chapter provides a critical review of recently published empirical papers on highly intensive teaching in higher education. Highly intensive teaching refers to subjects taught face-to-face in four weeks or less. Building upon and extending an influential review of intensive mode delivery (IMD) in higher education by Davies in 2006, this literature review confirms the observation made by several scholars investigating IMD that despite the increasing popularity of this form of delivery, rigorous and methodologically robust research into the benefits and challenges of this form of pedagogy is still in its infancy. By applying cognitive learning theory, this chapter discusses the circumstances under which intensive mode teaching is likely to be most effective and outlines potential avenues for further research.

Research on the cultivation path of innovative entrepreneurial thinking based on cognitive learning theory

The training efficiency of the existing innovative thinking training methods are not high. In order to improve the ability of optimizing learning and searching for innovative entrepreneurial thinking, and to improve the efficiency of cultivation innovative entrepreneurial thinking, a method of optimizing and controlling the cultivation path of innovative entrepreneurial thinking based on cognitive learning theory was proposed. Used particle swarm optimization method to construct the virtual space of path learning of innovative entrepreneurial thinking cultivation, and to simulate and construct the optimized learning environment model of innovative entrepreneurial thinking cultivation. By abstracting the space coordinate of innovative entrepreneurial thinking cultivation entered the virtual world of particle swarm filter population, the map grid model of innovative entrepreneurial thinking cultivation path tracking was obtained. Through particle swarm filter evolution to found a new mode of innovative entrepreneurial thinking cultivation, combined with global stability control and particle swarm cognitive learning algorithm, to realized adaptive optimization and global optimization control of innovative entrepreneurial thinking cultivation path. Improve the learning performance of entrepreneurial thinking. The simulation results show that the learning efficiency of path optimization is higher and the cost of path evolution is lower by using this method, which improves the efficiency of innovative entrepreneurial thinking cultivation. The feasibility of the proposed method is verified.

Cognitive Apprenticeship Learning Approach in K-8 Writing Instruction: A Case Study

This article explains a mixed methods study utilizing multiple cases in which answers to the question of how cognitive learning theory can influence instruction that maintains the central role that teachers have in the classroom, responding to students’ learning needs as they work on authentic tasks. The researcher investigated the responses of teachers to training around a model of instruction incorporating cognitive learning theory. What emerged from the inquiry was a model of instruction based on cognitive apprenticeship titled Cognitive Apprenticeship Learning Approach (CALA). This paper outlines the analysis of CALA based on the fidelity of teachers implementing carefully constructed instruction to apprentice students in writing based on teacher observations and data on student writing after attending targeted professional development. The data were collected from a group of 132 classroom teachers spanning the grades of transitional kindergarten through eighth grade. One consistent finding is that instruction based on a lesson design that focuses on cognitive apprenticeship increases students’ ability to write in the early grades. The cross-case analysis revealed that teachers wanted to collaborate with peers or a coach so that it would be easier to write the lessons, and they would know which lessons were stronger than others. The analysis also revealed that teachers felt the CALA training increased their ability to teach writing and that their students’ writing had improved overall.
