David Paul Ausubel!

In the post today I will write on a psychologist and pedagog that to marked my carrera because of his theory of the "meaningful learning". He is David Paul Ausubel was born in 1918 New York, study in the New York university and was a follower of Jean Piaget. In the moment when the Bruner theory  gained strength based on discovery learning, Ausubel thought that this was not only important but also the learning styles of reception, he thought  that learning could be acquired by discovery and reception according to certain rules. The important thing is to obtain a "meaningful learning".

               

the "meaningful learning" is the more important discoveries of Ausubel, this  "meaningful learning" is a learning that is achieved according to certain characteristics:

Significance logic of material

Psychological significance of  material

Favorable attitude of the student

For example for to achieve a "meaningful learning" they must first to rescue the "previous knowledges" asking to the childrens that know of butterfly, they will share her experienced, later, beginning  of the experienced of the childrens we organize the new knowledge

I think is very important this knowledge and i believe that is a deficiencies of the school, the  learning  is not meaningful for the childrens.  are  learning decontextualized and aliens. 

with this information we can create the environment necessary for that childrens can development this  "meaningful learning"  and the education to have more sense.
