Communication and the Learning Situation

In order for a learning situation to actually promote learning, teachers must do more than loosely organize a set of learning tasks, and hope for the best. At a minimum, the teacher must identify to his or her own satisfaction what the learning tasks are designed to accomplish, for example: Is a set of learning tasks designed to facilitate the acquisition of knowledge at some level of the cognitive domain as it relates to whatever is being taught, or to yield observable behaviors that indicate learning has occurred? At this initial stage of the learning process, the teacher is starting to develop what we identified in Fig. 2.2 as encoding and investigation processes.



ºThe teacher must also identify to the satisfaction of his or her students what the learning task demands in the way of individual behaviors. And herein lies the problem. While teachers may be able to identify in their own minds what a learning task is designed to accomplish, there is no guarantee they will be able to communicate this to the student. Many of the learning tasks we ask our students to engage in are unclear or characterized by ahigh degree of ambiguity. As a case in point, consider one of the most common learning tasks teachers employ: the term paper. A teacher, no doubt, has good reasons for assigning a lengthy essay devoted to a single subject matter. (S)he may desire to know whether the student can apply knowledge gleaned in the classroom, whether the student is creative, or a host of other things. Far too often, however, what the teacher desires to know, hopes to accomplish, or requires of the student is never understood fully by the student. This is not to say that the teacher has failed to discuss the requirements of the learning task entirely, but that the discussion is frequently unclear or ambiguous in the mind of the student. Obviously, this diminishes the probability of the student behaving in a fashion consistent with the expectations of the teacher.

Communication between teachers and students defines, in part, the learning situation. If a teacher desires to influence one or all of the domains of behavioral learning, by way of some learning task, the teacher must communicate to his or her students precisely what it is that the learning task demands of them. For example, if the learning task demands a fifteen-page evaluation with grammatical perfection and proper punctuation, then the teacher should communicate to the students precisely what (s)he means by: (I) fifteen pages, (2) evaluation, (3) grammatical perfection, and (4) proper punctuation in other words, the teacher should clearly identify the objectives of the assignment to the students, and the behaviors the students must engage in in order to successfully complete the assignment. As a precautionary device, the teacher should also employ some measure designed to accesswhether the students fully understand the stated objective, as well as the behaviors required of them. As we pointed out in Chapter 2, the only way we have of knowing whether our messages have been understood is through feedback.

To summarize: teachers should initially identify for themselves what a learning task is designed to accomplish, and the behavioral domain of learning at which the learning task is targeted. Following this, they should clearly identify for their students: (1) the objectives of the learning task, and (2) the behaviors the students will need to engage in to meet these objectives. Finally, we suggest that teachers devise a feedback loop—that is, a loop that will enable them to determine how well they have communicated.
In other words, the second important communication step involves the clear specification of how students should correctly decode messages, whether it be in terms of cognitive, affective, or psychomotor learning. This has three useful purposes. First, it helps to improve the fidelity of communication (and learning) by increasing redundancy. Second, it focuses teachers' attention on students and alerts them to the necessity of adapting messages to the various impositions of individual differences (see Chapter 5). Third, learning can be clearly defined in terms of the discrepancies between what was encoded by the teacher and decoded by students.

ACTIVIDAD 1:

1 Escribe en español el argumento central del texto. Puedes escribir un parrafo que contenga dos oraciones complejas o tres oraciones sencillas.

Si un profesor desea influir en uno o todos los dominios de aprendizaje conductual a través de una tarea de aprendizaje, el profesor debe comunicar a sus alumnos precisamentequé es lo que la tarea de aprendizaje exige de ellos. El maestro debe identificar claramente los objetivos de la asignación a los estudiantes y los comportamientos que los alumnos deben realizar a fin de completar con éxito la tarea. 

Extrae del texto las palabras o frases claves relacionadas directamente con el título, es decir, las que establecen la secuencia tematica.

Communication between teachers and students defines, the learning situation.

La Comunicación entre profesores y estudiantes define la situación de aprendizaje

ACTIVIDAD 2:

1 Establece en una oración sencilla el argumento o idea principal de cada parrafo. Para ello debes leer cuidadosamente cada parrafo tantas veces como sea necesario. No debes hacer traducción literal, sino escribir con tus propias palabras la idea que el autor quiere expresar.

Parrafo No. 1. Argumento

El profesor debe tener presente el objetivo que se pretende lograr para realizar las actividades pertinentes al tema.

Parrafo No. 2. Argumento

Casi siempre los estudiantes no comprenden el objetivo central de tal forma que pueda realizar las actividades que satisfagan al docente y den respuesta a dicho objetivo.

Parrafo No. 3. Argumento

Lo que hace asertivo al proceso de aprendizaje es la comunicación, el cual debe ser clara y precisa, explicar a los estudiantes lo que realmente se tomara en cuenta en la actividad.

Parrafo No. 4. Argumento

Se debe establecer un proceso de retroalimentación para determinar que el mensaje fue comprendido.

Parrafo No. 5. Argumento

El proceso de comunicación especifica en forma clara cómo los estudiantes correctamente debe decodificar los mensajes, ya sea en términos de aprendizaje cognitivo, afectivo opsicomotor

ACTIVIDAD 3:

Ubica las siguientes palabras en el texto y escribe su significado en español de acuerdo con el contexto. No utilices el diccionario. Haz un verdadero esfuerzo por no abrirlo.

Yield: Describir
Accomplish: Encajar
Gleaned: Adquiridos
Tasks: Tareas, Actividades
Loop: Proceso

ACTIVIDAD 4:

1. Resalte en amarillo, todos los pronombres, cuantificadores, adverbios u oraciones completas que estén actuando como referencias.

2. Seleccione cinco (5) palabras o frases que mas se repiten dentro del texto y con colores diferentes únalas con una línea en todo el texto. Por ejemplo, la palabra 'students' aparece muchas veces, resaltela todas las veces que aparezca y comience a unir cada una trazando una raya directamente con el próximo “students” y así sucesivamente. Al final de todo el ejercicio tendra cinco (5) largas líneas quebradas de diferentes colores, tal como se muestra en la siguiente figura
