    Jerome Bruner's Discovery Learning and Theory of Instruction

    Uploaded by

    Hendelyn Saul
    Jerome Bruner developed the theory of discovery learning and instruction. Discovery learning is an active and inquiry-based process where learners build on prior knowledge through experience and searching for new information based on their interests. Bruner outlined five principles of discovery learning including problem solving, learner management, integrating knowledge, analyzing information and feedback, and learning from failure. Bruner also believed learning occurs in stages based on cognitive development and that teachers should facilitate learning by providing needed information without organizing it for students.

    Jerome Bruner’s

    Discovery Learning
    and Theory of
    Instruction
    Jerome Seymour
    Bruner
    American Psychologist
    and Educator
    Born: October 1 1915,
    New York, United States
    Died: June 5 2016, New
    York, United States
    Jerome Bruner
    He was an American
    Psychologist who
    made significant
    contributions to
    human cognitive
    psychology .
    Discovery learning
    Discovery of learning is an active process of inquiry-
    based instruction that encourages learners to build
    on prior knowledge through experience and to search
    for new information and relationship based on their
    interest.
    Five Principles of Discover Learning
    Model
    Principle 1: Problem Solving.
    Instructors should guide and motivate learners to seek for
    solutions by combining existing and newly acquired
    information and simplifying knowledge.
    Principle 2: Learner Management.
    Instructors should allow participants to work
    either alone or with others, and learn at their own
    pace.
    Five Principles of Discover Learning
    Model
    Principle 3: Integrating and Connecting.
    Instructors should teach learners how to combine prior
    knowledge with new, and encourage them to connect to the
    real world.
    Principle 4: Information Analysis and Feedback
    Discovery Learning is process-oriented and not
    content-oriented, and is based on the assumption that
    learning is not a mere set of facts.
    Five Principles of Discover learning
    model
    Principle 5: Failure and Feedback
    Learning doesn’t only occur when we find the right
    answer. It also occurs through failure.
    According to Bruner
    The teacher should facilitate the learning process by
    developing lessons that provide the learner with
    information they need without organizing it for them.
    Cognitive Development
    Bruner believed in stages of instruction based on
    development.
    there are three modes of Representation
    1. Enactive (0 - 1 year old )
    2. Iconic ( 1 - 6 years old )
    3. Symbolic ( 7 years old and above )
    Three Modes of Representation
    Three Modes of Representation
    Enactive which is the
    representation of knowledge
    through actions.
    Three Modes of Representation
    Iconic which is visual
    summarization of image
    Three Modes of Representation
    Symbolic which is the use of words and
    other symbols to describe experiences.
    Four Features of Bruner’s
    Theory of Instruction
    1. Predisposition to learn
    Desire to learn and to undertake problem solving
    could be activated by devising problem activities in
    which students would pique student’s curiosity.
    2. Structure of Knowledge
    A body of knowledge must be in simple
    form for the learner to understand it and
    it must be in form of recognizable to
    student’s experience.
    3. Modes of Representation
    Using of visual, words, symbols and other
    modes of representation.
    4. Effective Sequencing

    No one sequencing will fit every learner, but in


    general, it should be in increasing difficulty.
