| Classic Education at EduClassics.com describes how learners adopt, adapt, and manage behavior patterns they use to learn, including a classic education in the 21st century.This page describes lecture notes of a triple-helix of learning from a learners’ view of learning. (Last edit of page: March 9, 2011)
Triple-Helix of Learning (THL) (POC): a. Device to analyze, plan, and monitor the degree of fit between learning, instruction, and content of a lesson. b. Elements of learning, instruction, and content of a lesson that fit together to increase learning promptly. c. Exists when instruction of content in a lesson matches behavior patterns of learners. HighlightsA triple-helix of learning (THL) accounts for measurable details that result in prompt learning from lessons. Behavioral scientists have demonstrated the validity and reliability of these elements in their studies during the past century. THL illustrates how common threads across findings of these studies meet when learning occurs. Instructors may use this illustration to plan, monitor, and revise instruction and lessons. Effective instructors have implicitly used versions of THL for decades when planning, analyzing, and evaluating instruction, instructors, and educational material as well as programs. Variations in the use of THL by instructors appear to account for distributions of learning a lesson. |
Lecture Notes
A triple-helix of learning (THL) illustrates measurable relationships among learning, instruction, and lesson content identified in behavioral science research reports. It exposes an essential infrastructure of learning. Without the elements in THL, learning does not occur.
It shows elements that exist when prompt learning occurs during instructed lessons. Behavioral scientists have been refining these elements for more than a century.
THL illustrates how common threads across findings of these studies relate when learning occurs.
This triple-helix occurs in whole or in part when a series of elements of behavior patterns people use to learn (as in aLEAP) matches a series of elements of behavior patterns an instructor uses to instruct (as in TIC) a series of elements that form the content (as identifying English parts of speech) of a lesson.
Effective educators implicitly use THL to plan, analyze, and evaluate their own and others’ instruction and lessons. They also implicitly use it to evaluate instructors and educational material as well as programs.
Instructors may use this illustration to plan, monitor, and revise instruction and lessons.
