It is no secret that humans are social creatures. This article suggests that when it comes to
learning theories there is no question that people observe, imitate, and learn from others. It is
also well known that technology plays a huge role in society today. With this understanding, it is
Galen and Wright compared two measures of moral cognition. They compared
Kohlberg’s stages of moral development and Graham and Haidt’s institution based moral
foundations theory. Of course, there were differences between the two theories, however there
were some very similar theory overlaps. MFT’s fairness/harm was very similar to Kohlberg’s
post conventional level. There were two studies conducted to compare the similarities of the two
studies. Both study conditions indicate a steady relationship between the two studies. The general
picture is that Haidt and Graham’s moral foundations overlap with Kohlberg’s stages of moral
development across very different cognitive load situations. “Correlations between the two
measures were found for all three DIT levels of reasoning, the most stable of which were the
positive I–B score/P-score relationship and the positive Authority/Stage 4 relationship – both
found across all three conditions. A positive relationship between In-group/Stage 2/3 was also
found across all three, though only significantly for two” .

unsurprising that technology eventually provided a platform to digitize just about every aspect of
human experience. The main premise of this article focuses on how the use of social media in the
classroom might benefit and stimulate attention, memory, and motivation. social media provides
a way to improve learning in a social context . If educators can tap into the huge growth of social
media and apply it to the classroom students will benefit greatly. Deaton concluded that
educators can impact student performance in a positive way through the use of modern
Educational Technologies.
This research study was conducted to attempt to apply Piaget’s cognitive development
theory to learning mathematics. The method used in this study was a survey. Standard deviation,
t-tests and mean were used to analyze the data collected. Two hundred students ages 12-16 were
surveyed. The results produced showed that the students in Piaget’s operational stage (12-16
years) were un able to do factorization and transitivity. The students were however able to
perform classification, intersection, ration & proportion, and geometry. The results also revealed
that socio-cultural differences have impact on formal operations stage students. It is suggested
that an encouraging environment should be provided and mathematics should begin being taught
in elementary and secondary level schools.

This study compares the use of moral and social reasoning in individuals with and
without autism spectrum disorder. 36 participants were recruited for this study. 18 with and 18
without autism spectrum disorder. The participants were shown familiar schoolyard
transgressions. The individuals were asked to judge the appropriateness of the behavior and
explain their judgements. Results from the study revealed that participants with typical
development used significantly more abstract rules than participants with autism spectrum
It is suggested that active learning improve the learning experience for students in the
Indonesian classroom. This study looks to identify what is defined as active learning. The article
looks at four theories: Piaget’s theory of assimilation and accommodation, Vygotsky’s theory of
social context and zone of proximal development, Dewey’s theory of progressive education, and
Vygotsky’s theory of constructionism. The study examines the teacher’s role in active learning as
it pertains to the nature of learning and teaching. The study touched on points such as scaffolding
to define what active learning really is. Active learning should include students actively
construction their own knowledge not just passively receiving ready-made knowledge from other
people. The role of the teacher changes from dispenser of knowledge to facilitator of learning.

disorder. The students with autism spectrum disorder judged the 10 transgressions to be more
context-bound than moral transgressions. The individuals without ASD provided more examples
of situations in which the depicted behaviors would be acceptable.
The probabilistic models of learning has really emerged over the past 10 years. These
models are very similar to the work of Piaget; however, they also claim to go further. This article
takes a closer look at the similarities through a systematic review of the literature. Tourmen read
and compared books and articles about the works of Piaget and the probabilistic models of
learning. She presented the theoretical evolutions offered by the probabilistic model of learning
and reexamined the work of Piaget to show how proposed similar questions at his time. The main
premise of the article is to show how much Piaget’s work influenced the probabilistic model of
learning.
