What Will Learn?

This course focuses on understanding the development of educational theories and the research that supports them. In the course, you will learn the framework and principles that explore the various theories supporting how the brain processes learning. The course will cover the history and neuroscience of the brain, and will highlight current educational perspectives on the learning process. This is a 4-credit-hour course and is allotted 6 weeks of time

Theories of Development Concepts and Applications

The human brain is a mysterious organ that people don’t understand entirely. Sure, the scientific community has studied and researched the human brain and how it processes thoughts and retains information.

However, there is still so much we don’t know about how the brain functions and processes visual and auditory data. If we knew more about the brain, perhaps we could make it easier for people to remember what they learn.

Theories of Development Concepts and Applications is an advanced educational course of the Accelerated   Master of Education Degree program at American International Theism University. This course focuses on helping students understand the development of educational theories and the research that supports them.

Educators are always trying to come up with new ways to make learning easier for students. They experiment with different educational theories based on extensive research into learning. If any theory is found to be effective, it influences the way in which educators teach people in the future.

In the course, you will learn the framework and principles that explore the various theories supporting how the brain processes learning. We will cover the history and neuroscience of the brain and will highlight current educational perspectives on the learning process as a whole.

By the time you’re done with the course, you will have a very good understanding of the human brain and how it processes information effectively. Even though we introduce a lot of scientific information in this course, you don’t have to be a science major to understand these theories of the brain. The course material is presented so that anyone with a Bachelor’s Degree in Education can understand it.

The Theories of Development Concepts and Applications course will earn you four credits toward your Master of Education degree. You’ll have six weeks to complete the course, and all the classroom work can be completed online.
