this is ATT 1170 use psychological foundations and digital technologies much six feel 62 today we look at the lenses transformational learning for how are you actually approaching learning here the guiding questions for the video described taylor's lenses for transformational learning perspectives using some examples from your own experience as a student or as an employee how do you think these lands is applied to you on learning or training Taylor develop 7 lenses through which to view transformational learning and they come into groups the first group is where the locus of earnings in the individual and the second group where the locus learning socio-cultural are within the environment hope you're starting to see some scenes here as we go from way back at the beginning of this course nature nurture models society in psychology and we're still in the middle of that continuum between individual and the environment and where disarming come from to let's take a look at Taylors lenses group 1 RM our models that focus on the individual and for still is miserable who talk about the cycle critical theory about a learning day loans who used a sec or developmental approach and talked about the intuitive nature of transformational learning and Boyd Hughes marva psychoanalytic approach and the importance of symbols and the unconscious and transformational learning and remember that word psychoanalysis goes way back to Freud's emphasis on the importance of the unconscious the second group will be social cultural for a retractable the social action in the emancipatory view i've transformational learning he focused on emerging from a context of poverty and oppression and then we need to transform our learning to focus on making some radical social change Tisdale talked about marva cultural spiritual view transformative learning and it's socially constructed personalities and individuals and their knowledge construction to storytelling is an important part of the learning at this approach foster's marva cultural and spiritual kind of awareness going on a trip to is shared with her race centric view based on African descent and and this one sees transformative learning as a daily conscious trashy something we have to keep coming back to it on a daily basis and if so then the at transformational learning a planetary view focusing on the interconnectedness between the universe the plants our natural environment everything around us let's take a little bit more detailed look each one of these measures second critical approach his first work was based on interviews that women who returned to college homework and how adults made sense and their life experience based on their life contexts he was the one who talked both frames of reference habits of mind points-of-view be made schemas and the e2 these schemes is involved in your life as well you each have a friend of reference to family your cultural background the things you're growing up about learning that am make the schemes in your life transformational learning occurs you would soon shift one of our beliefs and that change the entire perspective it could make a perspective more inclusive more open are mostly capable a change and more effective I remember not all learning is transformative just as we said in the adults aid stages love of life module whether you learn from the experience is entirely up to the individual in order to have that learning experience you need to include some critical reflections so critical discourse which is what we do in tutorial and some action which is what you'll do in your problem based learning group assignments so the learner has that responsibility to critically examine his or her own assumptions about how the experience has been interpreted it is seen as irrational and everest thinking and ever and a conscious and ever by Messer and that's why it is called the cycle critical approach the next wednesday was the second developmental approach an and this is a little bit more holistic and intuitive as you can see the quote from de los at the first business at the guide the facilitator instructions to listen to the dreams at the pilgrim it's a lot more spiritual basis and when Israel was talking about deals also focus on adults returning to higher education and felt that education is a transformational journey that the mentors there to service you know challenger culture guide supporter Boyd also used a sec or developmental approach and predates the attention and spirituality and health education that we see today this approach is grounded in depth psychology it sees a really deep inner journey if individualization that's what transformation is about going very deeply individually an also defines transformation is a fundamental change in personality so let's think about that for a sec because when we studied personality we said those theorist street fair said Act rates generally don't change so transformation and transpersonal psychology is a much newer way to look at things that would say that we we don't keep all our traits that we ardmore the ball we are change my life for open to the experience and we can learn and boy also says it dialogues an important process so we're trying to follow that model in this course for giving you some opportunities in tutorial to dialogue with the TA and I live with each other fairies was a social emancipatory approach may want to take social action and his work as a bazillion educator emerged from you're working with farmers in the 20 century context was set poverty and illiteracy in oppression was sort of part of a larger framework of overall social oppression soviet couple of terms banking education which was totally teacher centered at the all-knowing teacher you know units this knowledge to students who are oppressed and only participate and then problem posing education which was much better way that was liberating is a different kind relationship between teacher and student and they become call investigators and talking and dialogue is extremely important in this model too so focused on a cultural spiritual approach were spirituality is fundamentally how it makes sense for allies their dreams and the symbols are important think others challenges that predominant western way of thinking which is it logical left brain rational thought is sort of a higher order thinking well this way of thinking says it now the whole person learning is emphasized and that learners in each different contexts whether it's different cultural racial gender sexual orientation to construct their own knowledge so each review comes from a very context that is going to an really shape and color the kind of noisy creating this course this approach to be fostered by having cross-cultural relationships and the facilitators at the educators would be grounded and community-based in culturally relevant settings shared approach was race centric which focused on African descent people who are at the center have this model it's very culturally bound and non individualistic and ads grounded inserted oppositional Spears minority cultures are living in opposition to the cultural norm thats Marion who says that this model would say that our socio cultural political and historical context matters and when the examples of this be the afrocentric school in the Tri District School Board that is fairly recent and it's based on a recent Rick approach to education and there is debate on both sides as to whether this is it a good idea or that is idea that causes segregation you may talk but then tutorial but it's an approach has fostered by including traditional voices sensible onto the group and importance that is more than one kind of knowledge that needs to be valued and that are owned by %ah graphical cultural knowledge is an important way that we shape our learning and finally o'sullivan's planetary approach were approaching more spiritual connections this way interconnectedness between the universe in the community in the natural world the goal of this approach in transformative learning is a planetary consciousness home I want you think where the you believe technology is helping us to do this more or not one or more aware of what's happening in the world are we able to take more action on an or do we just leave it as information and not do anything about it this approach emphasizes quality of life issues fostering community connectedness responsibility in the larger picture and stare unique and how it focus our attention on connection to the natural world an example have that might be how different cultures approach education in science education if you're predominately downtown see science educator you may be focused on than nature science as you learned it but if you are some more and I've been into its cool the nature of science tends to be more connected to the spiritual world so they have a very different view of the earth and how our responsibility is to the earth you might think of some good examples that you can share tutorial on that census questions for this video take some time to review each Taylor 7 lenses and into trial this week discuss how you see these present in your current school or work i text you might see some of them or none of them see which ones that you observe each individual in our group will choose the lands at the most relate to and will describe why so that might depend on your own background or something that's happen in your life but there it was probably be one of these lenses that you're most comfortable with and you can choose that lands they find most difficult to relate to and describe way so hopefully we get to tutorial have very rich discussion that will demonstrate to you to each use transformative lance's differently
