    This week’s learning theory is Cognitivism.  Cognitivism focuses on the processes involved in learning rather than on the observed behavior. Cognitivists do not require an outward exhibition of learning, but focus more on the internal processes and connections that take place during learning.  Check out my page on Cognitivism and Connectivism for more information on these learning theories.
