Cognitive Learning

Cognitive Learning

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.
Tolman introduced the idea that behavior is influenced by...

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching I: Assessment and Diagnosis

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching I: Assessment and Diagnosis

The nursing process provides a clinical decision-making framework for patients and families to establish and implement a personalized care plan. Since part of the nurse's duties is to teach patients, the steps of the nursing process are the most effective way to approach instruction. The nursing process and the teaching-learning process are inextricably linked.
It is critical to determine the patient's learning needs during the assessment. Determination of learning needs compounds data from the...

Learning Disabilities

Learning Disabilities

Learning disabilities are cognitive disorders caused by neurological impairments that affect cognitive functions like language and reading, without indicating overall intellectual or developmental challenges. These disabilities differ from global intellectual or developmental disabilities as they are limited to distinct cognitive functions. Common learning disabilities include dysgraphia, dyslexia, and dyscalculia, each of which impacts unique aspects of learning.
Dyslexia
Dyslexia is a...

Intelligence

Intelligence

The term "intelligence" is complex because it refers to both behavior and individuals, and its interpretation varies across cultures. European Americans tend to link intelligence with reasoning and cognitive skills, while in Kenya, it is tied to responsible participation in family and social life. In Uganda, intelligence is seen as the ability to know the right actions and carry them out effectively, while the Iatmul people of Papua New Guinea associate it with the capacity to remember detailed...

Area of Science:

Artificial Intelligence in Education
Cognitive Science
Educational Measurement

Background:

Current AI diagnostic models lack pedagogical interpretation due to binary knowledge states.
Existing models struggle to encode theory-aligned cognitive-process demands.
Need for interpretable learning diagnosis in AI-enabled educational assessment.

Purpose of the Study:

Operationalize revised Bloom's taxonomy at the exercise-knowledge level.
Develop RLDM-EKC, a DINA-type model for inferring ordered knowledge-cognition profiles.
Enhance pedagogical interpretation of diagnosed learning profiles.

Main Methods:

Constructed an Exercise-Knowledge-Cognition (EKC) tensor.
Developed RLDM-EKC model inferring ordered knowledge-cognition profiles.
Employed Expectation-Maximization for parameter estimation and MAP inference for profile derivation.

Main Results:

RLDM-EKC achieved 81.7% PMR and 91.6% AAMR in simulations.
Empirical validation on TIMSS 2007 Grade 4 mathematics data.
Generated theory-aligned multi-level cognitive profiles with uncertainty reporting.

Conclusions:

RLDM-EKC offers accurate and interpretable learning diagnosis.
The model supports actionable, human-in-the-loop feedback for educators and learners.
Addresses limitations of classical cognitive diagnostic models in educational assessment.
