Summary
Gerontology education can be enhanced by combining flipped classrooms with project-based learning. This innovative approach promotes deep learning and develops practical skills for students in aging studies.
Area of Science:
- Gerontology and Geriatric Education
- Higher Education Pedagogy
Background:
- There is an urgent global need for professionals trained in gerontology.
- Educators are seeking innovative teaching methods to engage students in gerontology.
Purpose of the Study:
- To outline a novel teaching approach combining flipped classroom and project-based learning.
- To foster deep learning and develop real-life applicable skills in gerontology students.
Main Methods:
- Flipping the classroom by converting traditional lectures into online content.
- Implementing project-based learning with guidance on group formation and project topics.
- Providing examples of project contracts and evaluation sheets.
Main Results:
- The combined approach offers an active and participatory learning experience.
- This pedagogy fosters deep learning and the development of practical skills.
- It has the potential to inspire a lifelong interest in adult development and gerontology.
Conclusions:
- Combining flipped classroom and project-based learning is an effective pedagogical strategy.
- This innovative approach addresses the need for engaging gerontology education.
- It equips students with essential skills for careers in the field of aging.

01:30Cognitive Development During Adulthood
674
Cognitive development continues throughout adulthood, undergoing significant shifts across early, middle, and late stages. Individual transition occurs from adolescent idealism to pragmatic and adaptable thinking in early adulthood. During this period, individuals learn to integrate personal beliefs with the recognition that other perspectives are equally valid. Exposure to the complexities of modern society, diverse experiences, and higher education contribute to this adaptive thought process,...

01:27Emerging Adulthood

Jeffrey Arnett's concept of emerging adulthood offers a framework to understand the unique developmental stage between adolescence and full-fledged adulthood, generally from ages 18 to 25. This period is marked by extensive exploration and shifts in identity, relationships, and career choices, a process known in psychology as role experimentation. Emerging adulthood reflects the evolving cultural expectations surrounding adulthood and the dynamic process of personal transformation during...

E. C. Tolman emphasized the purposiveness of behavior — the idea that much of our behavior is goal-directed. For instance, employees who aim for a promotion work diligently to meet their targets. Tolman argued that when classical conditioning and operant conditioning occur, the organism acquires certain expectations. In classical conditioning, a child might fear a dog because they expect it to bite. In operant conditioning, a person might consistently work overtime because they expect a...

Planning for learning involves the development of a teaching plan. Teaching plans are similar to nursing care plans—both follow the steps of the nursing process. Planning in the teaching process involves setting goals and outcomes. Here, goals identify what a patient needs to achieve to understand a healthcare topic better, whereas the outcomes are the action to be performed by the patient to achieve the goal within a timeframe. For example, if the goal is to educate the patient about...

01:25Piaget's Theory of Cognitive Development from Childhood into Adulthood
1.1K
Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development emphasizes the role of thinking in a child's learning process, suggesting that children are naturally curious about their environment. His approach to development is discontinuous, proposing that cognitive abilities progress through distinct stages, each with unique characteristics. Central to Piaget's theory is schemata—mental structures that allow individuals to understand and interpret the world.

Cognitive learning is based on purposive behavior, incidental learning, and insight learning.
E. C. Tolman's theory of purposive behavior emphasizes that much behavior is goal-directed. He argued that to understand behavior, we must look at the entire sequence of actions leading to a goal. For instance, high school students study hard, not just due to past reinforcement but also to achieve the goal of getting into a good college.
