topic: Generative learning

Generative learning:

         I am aligned  with the Generative learning which style of learning incorporates existing knowledge with new ideas based on experimentation and open-minded. It also encourage a learner to have team creativity resulting in a new way of viewing old methods

      With this learning it must have motivation and responsibility being applied.

Motivation because it drives a person to force his intention or action to do a certain task and responsibility because it address to a person having self-efficacy, initiative and of course goal to arrived his/her task.

Generative learning activities must provide the students with an opportunity to mentally "play with" information to create a personal understanding of the subject to be learned.

Definition / Attributes: Generative Learning

• Learners actively participate in the learning process and generate knowledge by forming mental connections between concepts.
• Two types of generative activities:
• Activities that generate organizational relationships (titles, headings, questions, objectives, summaries, graphs, tables, and main ideas)
• Activities that generate integrated relationships between what the learner sees, hears, or reads and memory (demonstrations, metaphors, analogies, examples, pictures, applications, interpretations, paraphrases, inferences)

How can the World Wide Web support . . . Generative Learning?

• Provide students with World Wide Web-based simulations that they can manipulate to learn concepts.
• Provide students with database sites they can use to interpret, make inferences, or predictions.
• Provide students with sites that function as triggers for discussion about concepts.
